Along with serving as lively decor, indoor plants have air-purifying qualities that will both boost your mood and leave you feeling like you can breathe a little easier.

So, here are ten plants that will absolutely love to live in your bedroom.

Aglaonema

Aglaonemas can tolerate both dry and moist conditions. They can also thrive in low light, so they’re perfectly suited for dim bedrooms and forgetful plant owners.

Their pink and vibrant leaves will brighten up your space so that you’ll be greeted with a cheery plant every morning when you wake up.

Snake Plant

Snake plants are a favorite among plant lovers because of the eye-catching structure of the leaves. With green leaves that shoot straight up into the air, a snake plant can add a neat, modern look to your bedroom.

Golden Pothos

A beautiful trailing plant with flecks of gold on its green heart-shaped foliage, the golden pothos is ideal as a hanging plant. Fix it to your ceiling, or let its leaves sprawl over the edges of your bookshelf.

The golden pothos needs to be watered when its soil is dry. But be sure not to overwater it because the plant cannot withstand soggy soil.

Money Tree

This small tree is a symbol of good luck and prosperity, so if you want to surround yourself with positive vibes, the money tree is your plant.

Place your money tree in bright, indirect sunlight and keep it lightly moist. Money trees are native to swampy environments, so if you tend to overwater plants, you won’t have to worry about that with this one.

Prayer Plant

If you’re looking for beauty in your bedroom, the prayer plant is an attractive, exotic-looking plant. It has striking, decorative leaves that are deep green and lined with red veins.

Plus, its leaves fold up at night, resembling hands clasped in prayer. How unique! You won’t regret bringing this plant into your life.

Parlor Palm

If you want something elegant and tropical, the parlor palm fits the bill. Its large fronds evoke images of summer and warmth.

A parlor palm is an ideal houseplant because it thrives in low-light conditions and even cramped spaces.

So, if your bedroom is a little smaller, you can still successfully grow a plant!

Lemon Button Fern

Lemon button ferns are highly adaptable and known for being more resilient than other types of ferns. It even gives off a faint lemony scent during the warmer months, which will make your room feel and smell fresher.

Set the lemon button fern on your desk. It’ll look cute as a button! And make sure to water it as soon as you notice the soil’s surface feels dry.

Marble Queen Pothos

Here’s another type of pothos on the list. They are named so because of their white and marble-like leaves. Keep it in medium and bright indirect light for the best and fast-growing results.

ZZ Plant

The ZZ plant is a gem of a houseplant. They can flourish in areas with both high and low amounts of light. Let its soil dry out in between waterings.

Philodendron

And finally, we have the philodendron. Some of the best aspects of philodendrons are their velvety leaves and their endurance to low light conditions. They’re easy to grow and relatively low-maintenance.
