FAQ About Indoor Plant Adaptation Strategies

How do indoor plants adapt to limited light conditions?
Indoor plants adapt to limited light by adjusting their photosynthesis process. Many indoor plants are naturally shade-tolerant, having evolved under forest canopies. They make efficient use of available light by increasing chlorophyll production, enlarging leaf surface areas to capture more light, or growing slower to conserve energy. To help them, you can place them near windows or use grow lights that mimic natural sunlight.
