Question: I stayed in a hotel over the weekend and there was a very healthy looking snake plant in the hallway. It was even sprouting babies! There was no natural light or windows anywhere, juts the hotel hall lights that are on all the time. I thought all plants needed some sun at least! Can plants survive and thrive in artificial light?

Some hotels pay a local plant shop/company to manage all their plants so it’s also possible their plants could be rotated out every few weeks.

But I agree with the other above posts.

Plants in the hallway?

And Not behind thick plexiglass?

What’s this world coming to when we start having things in the hall way to make things look nice.

It was just on a table in the hall. I was dumbfounded how it could have possibly be surviving!
