Some flowers like cool, shady environments and thrive just as well even with poor light. Below are 5 sun-shy flowers that are both beautiful and easy to grow!

(1). Maidenhair fern

The maidenhair fern has emerald-green fronds and is very beautiful. It likes cool, shady environments, so keep it in a dark spot at home. However, it should also receive some indirect light; generally it can be placed on an east- or north-facing windowsill at home, so it gets light in the morning and evening, meeting its growth needs without the leaves drying out from light that is too strong.

(2). Calla lily

The calla lily likes warm, humid environments and cannot tolerate strong light, but during the flowering period it needs 3-5 hours of light each day, otherwise the flower color will not be vivid enough; at other times it should be kept in a shaded environment.

In summer, place it in a shaded environment to prevent the leaves from wilting; in winter it can receive some light.

(3). Gloxinia

Gloxinia likes shady places and grows very well even with insufficient light; just a little indirect light is enough to meet its growth needs. Avoid direct sunlight, and generally keep it in a semi-shaded environment. In summer, pay attention to shading and ventilation.

(4). Inch plant

The inch plant likes dark, humid environments and dislikes direct strong light. In summer it should be shaded by 70%, and indoors it should be placed in a spot with indirect light where it can receive morning and evening light. If you want the leaves to be purplish-red, it needs plenty of light; with sufficient light the leaves turn purplish-red and look very attractive.

(5). Ivy

Ivy is highly adaptable and not demanding about light. Avoid scorching sun; in spring place it in a shady spot where it can get some sunlight, which will make the leaves even more emerald-green and lush. Keep it in a bright spot and the foliage will be emerald-green and vibrant.
