I love my indoor spaths, my zz plant, my trailing philodendrons.................(speckled white dots on green foliage....................

Even though we have over 80% humidity near the coast, I have no luck with any fern except bird's eye fern.....................and I don't have enough humidity for Swedish Ivy........but it loves the outdoors............the leaves turn brown in the house unless you mist them all the time........

But my favorite plant inside are my ivys (pothos).............especially the ones with so much white in them like Queen's marble.............I never get tired of pothos of any kind.........

good luck..............and someone suggested cane begonias............they like the cooler temps of a house...........rex are much harder to grow for me inside.........I have them sitting on pebbles with water to bring up the humidity for them.............
