# I want to get some new plants for my room, I have a ton in the window…

_Posted by Plant Lover on 2023-09-02_

I want to get some new plants for my room, I have a ton in the window already, but the rest of my room doesn’t get a lot of light because I only have one very small window so I was wondering if anyone had any good plant recommendations that don’t need a lot of light.

Pothos ivy, philodendrons, parlor palm, snake plant plus several others can take low light rooms. An alternative that allows you to choose any plant is to use grow lights or add a grow light bulb in an existing lamp. They are affordable and allows you to pick any plant. Pothos varieties shown in the diagram.

Zz plants, snake plants, and aglonema grow in low light too

Pothos is great for low light, but I have this same issue and I got a 2 pack of grow lights from Amazon for like $10-$15 and they’re amazing! You might try that! You just use the lightbulbs like any other bulb
