Indoor plant ideas

[Hope]

I would like to get a few low light, indoor plants. Of course, bird safe. What types of plants do you all have in your homes?

I wish I had an answer for you, but this is something that I've been wondering about lately, so I'll be following this thread.

There are a number of inet sites that list safe/unsafe plants for birds.

Oooh. I'm going to follow this. Hopefully we could get some great ideas. :handup:

I've heard bamboo is good for low light

Right now I have a couple of hibiscus plants they need to be by a window and have about 6 hours of light. Not exactly low light but they're very pretty and fairly easy to keep

I believe spider plants are bird safe, but they need medium to direct light. My mom kept a very healthy spider in medium, indirect sunlight.

boston and birds nest ferns would probably cope with shade. they look lovely in hanging baskets. we have to also consider the soil and not allowing our birds access to it. soils can contain mold spores and bacteria, and also fertilizer balls added by manufacturers and whatever else they've decided to put in. i did read that spraying the soil periodically with diluted vinegar can help reduce this.
