Plants that thrive in the dark

[AndrewClayton]

I’m thinking about adding some live plants to some of my enclosures, my question is are there any plants that thrive in darker conditions as my living room and bedroom are north facing and don’t get sunlight in them I also have a couple in my hall that doesn’t have any windows so no sunlight at all?

Only plant I know of that does okay in really low light is what people call the snake plant or mother in laws tongue. Don’t know the species but if you search it comes right up.

Edited to add, the peace lilly is an amazing plant, they have even experimented with it on the International Space Station, as they are really good air filters.

I've definitely seen people use that devils ivy in enclosures before. It grows really well, you probably end up having to trim it back regularly.

One plant I did not think about until this evening is the Spider Plant. Chlorophytum comosum ‘Variegatum’, It is a plant that everyone seemed to have when I was a kid, it tolerates both full sun & total shade, as well as most, if not all, types of keepers.

I wouldn't want to use any sort of lilly in a Ts enclosure as all lilly plants contain toxins in there stamens -I know these are poisonous to cats and other animals so I wouldn't want to risk it with a T

Also, no plants really thrive in the dark...
