Not sure if this is the right place to ask?
Due to young children I've avoided having many houseplants, but now they are growing up I think I may risk it!
The first suitable, bare looking spot is in the main bedroom. There is a bay window, NW facing with a chest of drawers in front of the window. I'd like something easy to care for and wider rather than tall (im still worried about the kids spilling it over, and I dont want to 'darken the room' too much by having a large plant). Id like to get a pot approx 12" round, or 12 x 18 if rectangular.
Ive taken a look at the RHS plant finder, but it cant seem to search for houseplants.
I see that the plants are 'full sun', part sun or shade, but unsure what to select as the window can get quite a bit of evening sun for nearly half the year, but then will have no direct sun through the winter.
I quite the look of Herringbone Plant & Calathea, but dont think they will like being in the NW bay window?
What plant(s) would you suggest?
