Not everyone has the luxury of sunlight blessing their home, especially in this era 🙁
If you are one of those, does that mean you cannot enjoy the blooms of indoor flowering plants?
Obviously not!!!
There are many indoor flowering plants that grow in little to no sunlight in India.
And today, I am going to share it with you.
But, before we move on, I want to clear one thing that every plant requires some amount of sunlight; however low light conditions they can handle, each of them would require a minimal amount of sunlight.
So, don’t keep them devoid of sunlight, find a spot that receives filtered sunlight.
Let’s dive right in.
Indoor Flowering Plants Without Sunlight India

Peace lily is a gorgeous plant with extraordinarily beautiful flowers that can grow pretty well without sunlight.

Bromeliad is another indoor flowering plant that can grow without sunlight and will bless you with its astonishing bright colored flowers.
Other than that it requires well draining soil that can hold moisture for a long time.
This plant grows in the shade of bigger plants in its natural environment.
Christmas Cactus (Indoor Flowering Plant No Sunlight)
As the name suggests this plant is a cactus, and they are generally seen as a desert plant that loves sunlight.
But Christmas cactus is just the opposite of it.
If exposed to direct sunlight, its leaves will start to burn.
It needs only indirect sunlight and flowers near Christmas time, and thus got its name.
The flower grows at the tip of its stem which looks so beautiful.
Euphorbia Milii (Crown of Thorns)
This plant surely justifies its name, covered with thorns all over its stem and topped with beautiful red flowers.
It does look like a crown of thorns.
This plant has almost no maintenance and you can keep it under shade for a major part of the year but do expose it to bright filtered light in the winters.
Because it needs sunlight to produce flowers during this time.
Place it in such a location that kids and pets are out of its reach because it can do serious damage if handled improperly.
Poinsettia – Indoor Flowering Plants Without Sunlight India
Last but not the least indoor flowering plant that can grow without sunlight in my list is Poinsettia.
This gorgeous plant is popular for its red colored flowers that can make anyone fall for them.
It requires a humid environment and bright but indirect sunlight to grow.
Their flowering season comes close to Christmas and they go into dormancy in the spring season.
