Plant suggestions

Hello, I currently have a little planter (a tray with 3 pots that are about 5 inches across each)

this area is on a shelf with about 20 inches of clearance between the shelf above it. It gets relatively indirect light from a west window.

Are there any plants that could fit in that space and be happy there long term? I’d like 3 different ones if possible

A slow growing philo or monstera would do good long-ish term; some like a little direct light from a west window. I have an Obliqua Peru that grows about a snail’s pace in the same space as a Delicioca that has grown like a weed. Though the speed of any tropicals is dependent on humidity too.

You could also get any plant you’d like and just prune it back
