Hi Debbie, I have a parlor palm that only tolerates indirect light and it does fine in the summer when I have the air conditioning on.
dark green leaved house plants require less light then any with white/cream color in leaves Pothos,Swedish Ivy,Primerose,African Violets,Begonias,Caladiums will all do well and give you some color The main factor is don't over water them and keep them out of drafts from Ac or heat. Only water when completely dry give them water soluble miracle grow fertilzer 2x a year as one of regular waterings,transplant very little don't move them around too much. Most house plants die from too much care and overwatering
