indoor plants
Ferns on windowsills
Indoor plants are plants grown inside buildings rather than outdoors, typically in pots or containers.
They serve decorative purposes, improve air quality, or simply bring greenery into living spaces.
Some thrive in low light while others need sunny windows: My indoor plants are all dying because I forget to water them.
Also called houseplants.
