The Plant Dr: Low-Light Houseplants + Snake Plant Spotlight

Do you have a burning desire to fill your home with greenery, but find that the plant you thought would do well in that shaded corner is curling its leaves into an S.O.S? I wrote this article for a weekly newsletter series I ran during the strange pandemic times. I was playing around with an idea for a Patreon service that never got traction. At least I can post it here for posterity! It was a fun exercise to pass the time after I gave up on the quarantine bread-making trend, so please go easy on the typos and rough edges.

This one was about choosing and taking care of low-light-friendly houseplants. I also introduce one of the best plants for low-light conditions: Dracaena trifasciata, also known as the snake plant.

I hope you enjoy!
