Best plants for the bathroom

Plants tend to like humidity so it makes sense to grow some in your bathroom. On the other hand, it’s often a room with higher temperatures and lower levels of light than the rest of the house, which makes it important to choose the correct plant. If you need more light, consider getting a grow light.
