While some people can't get enough of those cosy, dark winter months, others can’t wait for the return of long, light summer evenings. It’s the same way with plants. Although every house plant needs sunlight to survive, there are some plants that do well with very little of it. Nice to have those low-light lovers in the house during the dark days!
