Aspidistra Elatior is a tough and resilient plant that can survive in low light and neglect, earning it the common name of the cast iron plant. It is native to Japan and Taiwan, where it grows on the forest floor.
It has dark green, glossy, lance-shaped leaves that can reach up to 2 feet long and 4 inches wide, and grow in upright clumps.
Cast-iron plants are not fussy. They feel at home in most places, so you can keep them in just about any room, from the bathroom to your bedroom.
While this plant likes light or partial shade, it will also do just fine in a shady spot, making it a suitable plant for dark rooms. Allow excess water to drain away and prevent waterlogging.
