With the right varieties, you can make your office or house smell like a garden even if there isn’t any sunlight.

Here are the best 10 low-light plants that can survive even your darkest corners:
1. Calathea

2. Dieffenbachia
To provide the best growing conditions for dieffenbachia plant, try using filtered light.
If you don’t have anything else on hand to use as a barrier between it and direct sunlight, like curtains or shades during springtime (when plants are producing new leaves), then just cover up any windows where these types of lights would otherwise shine through.
3. Dragon Tree
This tropical plant is extremely delicate, so make sure you keep it away from direct sunlight.
