Asparagus fern

The delicate asparagus fern is popular in bathrooms because they love humidity. They do best by a window but don’t touch the thorny stems.

Begonia

Begonia is another plant that enjoys humidity, and their bright flowers add a pop of color to your bathroom. They can tolerate low light.

Gardenia

Known for their beautiful, fragrant white flowers, Gardenias are tricky to grow. They do enjoy humidity and bright, indirect light, but cannot tolerate sudden temperature changes.

Orchids

Orchids are the perfect bathroom plant. They come from humid climates, so thrive in the humidity of a bathroom. When they bloom, they add magnificent color. Different species require different amounts of light.

Snake plant (Mother-in-Law’s Tongue)

These are really easy to grow, if slow, and their vertical, variegated leaves make for an attractive display. They like bright light but can do well in imperfect conditions.
