That does not imply you should not have vegetation. It does not imply you’ll be able to’t take pleasure in the advantages of getting/caring for houseplants.
It’s possible you’ll must experiment as in some vegetation that folks say will likely be tremendous will not be because of the circumstances in your house (gentle, humidity). Be ready for plant demise till you get the hold of the routine of caring for them OR discover the vegetation that work finest in your house.
I’ve a buddy who has has a windowless lavatory – however since they heard that XYZ plant loves the moisture in a rest room – they have been attempting to make one of many XYZ vegetation dwell of their lavatory with out success. I recommended including a develop gentle bulb to the sunshine fixture (or a separate lamp) after which leaving it on 8 hours or extra a day… however that was not an possibility.
That stated, listed here are some vegetation that are inclined to do OK in houses (or workplace buildings) the place temperatures/humidity are largely regular and comfy for people. And oblique gentle (not sitting in daylight and casting a shadow) works simply tremendous.
Peace lilly
Snake plant
Spider plant (the stable inexperienced plant appears to be sturdier than the veriagated form)
Some forms of ivy (or pothos) work effectively.
The Peace Lilly and Snake plant do not want a lot trimming or repotting.
Spider vegetation and ivy/pothos get gangly and massive (or unfastened leaves that won’t get replaced) so you might have to be “heartless and merciless” and reduce them again or begin them over (by rooting the child spider vegetation or taking cuttings and rooting the ivy/pothos).
On the workplace, I’ve acquired a Hedera algeriensis ( a kind of ivy) that is a descendant of a reducing I acquired over 30 years in the past. At one level it had tendrils that had been 40 ft lengthy and ran alongside the tops of the workplace cubicles. That one is lengthy gone. it is present incarnation is 6 rooted stems in a big pot with vines saved at about 3 to 4 ft and wound ornamental across the pot and a small trellis within the pot. It has been about 5 years and it is getting gangly and ugly/over grown so it’s going to doubtless be getting both a hair reduce (reducing it again to about 8 inches) Or a complete do over by taking cuttings and beginning over. 
I even have descendants of a snake plant from about 50 years in the past – at residence and at work. It is a sluggish cycle of re potting, taking any “infants” and beginning a brand new pot and possibly discarding the outdated vegetation.
I even have the descendants of some very hardy miniature african violets (additionally from about 25 years in the past)- these guys flip round fast – I often propagate new ones each 12 to 18 months. For some purpose they bloom superbly within the fall through February. I believe that is why I hold them. The pop of colour through the dreary winter months is good. I hold them on my south going through kitchen windowsill. I believe the summer time months are an excessive amount of solar, warmth, and possibly humidity for them (that is why no blooms) they appear to love the cooler, drier, much less intense solar gentle of the autumn and winter.
The circle of life.
