What green plants are good to grow in a humid, hot bathroom? These 9 potted plants are enough

There are many plants suitable for placing indoors that can brighten the whole indoor environment and also purify the air, but not all plants are suitable for growing in small spaces, especially in bathrooms with high temperatures, poor ventilation and particularly high humidity. If you want to grow plants well in a bathroom, the plants below are very suitable for you.

If you want to choose plants for a bathroom, the problem you most need to deal with is the high-humidity environment, because there is a sink in there and you may even shower every day, so the humidity is particularly high. If you plant succulents and cacti in there, they will easily rot.

You need to grow some plants that like moisture and high humidity, and that are tolerant of high temperatures.

1. Peperomia caperata

Peperomia caperata likes a warm and humid environment all year round. The maintenance location should keep appropriate light, and it can also grow well in semi-shade. It likes relatively high air humidity. If the air is dry, its leaves will easily wither. During the growing period, the soil should be kept moist, but waterlogging in the soil should be avoided.

2. Phalaenopsis

Phalaenopsis is very suitable for growing on a bathroom windowsill. A little bit of scattered light each day is enough. It likes a high-humidity environment and has little demand for light. It likes a warm environment all year round and is afraid of cold. The minimum maintenance temperature needs to stay above 7 degrees.

3. Spider plant

Spider plant is very suitable for growing as a hanging plant in the bathroom. It has relatively good adaptability to the environment. During the growing period, it does not need frequent watering, especially in the bathroom, where ventilation is not very good and its water evaporation is also relatively slow. It is enough to wait until the soil is completely dry and then water thoroughly.

4. Boston fern

Boston fern is one of the most common ornamental ferns. It can also grow well in a bright indoor environment. It likes an environment with very high humidity and can grow well in a bathroom. It likes a warm and slightly moist environment all year round and has little demand for light.

5. Ornamental bromeliad

Ornamental bromeliads are also especially suitable for growing in a bathroom, especially some varieties that have already bloomed. They have a very long ornamental period. If you maintain relatively high air humidity and a cool environment, they can bloom for more than three months. Maintaining relatively high humidity helps prolong the flowering period.

6. Pitcher plant

The pitcher plant is very suitable for growing as a hanging plant on a bathroom windowsill. It especially likes high humidity. If you want its pitchers to last longer, you need to spray water regularly every day to avoid a dry environment. For cultivation, it is enough to wrap it with sphagnum moss. Generally, the sphagnum moss only needs to be replaced once every more than half a year. The maintenance environment should maintain relatively high temperature and air humidity.

7. Fittonia

Fittonia has a great many varieties, and the leaf colors are all different. It can grow especially well in a bright bathroom, and it grows vigorously in a high-humidity environment. It likes the high-temperature and high-humidity environment in a bathroom, needs the soil kept moist, and needs regular watering.

8. Tillandsia

Tillandsia, also called air plant, is an ornamental bromeliad plant. It has pink flowers and a very long ornamental period. It likes a high-temperature and high-humidity environment, and growing it in a bathroom is a good choice.

9. Pothos

I have seen many people grow pothos in the bathroom, and it basically needs almost no care. It can be maintained well even in a bathroom with low light. It has extremely strong adaptability to the environment. During maintenance, keep it warm and humid all year round, and water thoroughly when the soil is dry. If the leaves droop and wither, you can directly soak the pot once, soaking it directly in clean water for about five minutes, then take it out to dry off the water and replant it, and it will quickly recover to a healthy state.
