10 Best Houseplants for Your Bathroom (3 of 6)

Aloe Vera

A perfect bathroom plant is one that can also contribute to your beauty, which is the aloe vera. “The gooey insides of the Aloe plant’s leaves can be used to help soothe skin, heal minor burns, reduce itch, and more. “Simply slice off a mature leaf at the base of the plant, squeeze out the interior ‘gel’, and apply directly to your skin,” Marino says. These plants like a little more sunlight than others, so aloe vera is best for a bathroom with a view.

Staghorn Fern

This plant also loves humidity, and thrives in indirect sunlight. “We can envision it potted on your bathroom’s windowsill or even mounted on a piece of wood and hung on the bathroom wall,” says Marino. They look great on wood mounting, since they do not need dirt.
