What plants could I get for my house?

I live in Pennsylvania and have a house on a corner lot, so there's some sun in the morning but not a lot later in the day because there's not many windows on the back of the house. I would like to get a few plants that don't need a lot of light. I have a fern and a spider plant, which seem to do well enough, but I'd like to find a few more. They need to be smaller (not a fig tree for example) and I'd prefer not to hang them from the ceiling. if anyone has any suggestions, I would greatly appreciate it.

Dracina


Peace Lilly


Arrowhead plant


snake plant


corn plant


mother-in-law's tongue


Chinese evergreen





Or just go to a nursery, and pick some plants from the "low light" section of the store.
Reply:Mmm....i think you should try a plant called a Pothos, or cactus. A Pothos plant has vines that grow out word that could reach sun most of the day.

Reply:A creeping charlie works great in the kitchen or bathroom, because it likes the humidity. Also, an ivy will grow just about anywhere and are hard to kill, and they don't need alot of sunlight. A prayer plant is another thought, they like moisture more than light
Reply:chinesse evergreen! They can go months with out light or water. Also Jade trees are real good I have one of those and only water about once a month and it sits by a window that has closed blinds and I like it the best.
Reply:I read your question and I was going to say spider plant but you already have that so, ?
Reply:I just recently got a bonsai tree and I love it. It does take a lot of water but it doing really well in my window where it does not get direct sunlight but does have light.
