Collection: Pet-Safe Low Light Plants

North-facing rooms, interior spaces without windows, and apartments with limited natural light are among the most common reasons people assume they cannot keep plants. The low light category exists specifically for these conditions, and it is one of the more useful collections for city dwellers and renters working with imperfect light.

The challenge for pet owners is that the two most commonly recommended low light plants, pothos and snake plants, are both toxic to cats and dogs. Every variety in this collection is a genuine low light performer confirmed non-toxic through the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center database. Calatheas, Marantas, Peperomias, Bird's Nest Ferns, Spider Plants, and Parlor Palms make up the core of this collection and represent some of the most reliably low light tolerant houseplants available.

Pothos and snake plants are the two most commonly recommended low light houseplants. Both are toxic to cats and dogs. Neither is sold by Root & Reach Botanicals. Every plant here gives you the same low light performance without the safety risk.
