Not all plants need bright sunlight - some of them are happy to live in partial shade.
In addition, emphasizes the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, scientist-agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh, shade-loving plants are usually distinguished by their unpretentiousness, so be sure to look for the following options in flower shops in your city.
Cissus
This unpretentious climbing flower agrees to exist both in partial shade and in diffused light. Please note: cissus grows quickly. To turn the plant into a beautiful bush, you will need special vertical supports.
Cyperus
You can safely place the pot with this plant in either light partial shade or bright diffused light. Like its aforementioned brother, cyperus does not require any special conditions. The main thing is that the room temperature does not fall below 15 degrees.
Aspidistra
Aspidistra, with its wide, glossy leaves on long petioles, colored in a rich green color, does well in partial shade. It can withstand sunlight only in the mornings and evenings.
Fatsia
Fatsia owners place it both in the back of the room and near the window. Shading does not worsen the appearance of the plant, but be prepared for the fact that it will grow more slowly. And yet, if we are talking about variegated species, it is better to provide them with diffused light, not partial shade.
Hedera
Ivy with its green leaves will do well in partial shade. The exception is variegated species, which need diffused light to maintain their color.
