Are there any house plants that require no light?

I don't mean to keep the plant in the closet or anything like that, however there is a spot in my bathroom that would be perfect for a plant however it barely gets any indirect light? Any suggestions?

Are there any house plants that require no light?
Pretty much all plants need light, whether it is direct or indirect. I currently have plants in my office at work that don't receive any sunlight at all, they only receive light from the fluorescent fixtures, and from a compact fluorescent bulb I brought in. Plants that are doing very well under the fluorescents are as follows:

Cactus

Jade

Aloe

Spiderplant

Nosegay Peppers (an ornamental hot chile pepper)

Ficus Benjamina (Weeping Fig)

Schefflera (umbrella trees)

Eggplant (yes, eggplant as in the vegetable)



I hope this helps, and good luck. You may want to search the internet on shade tolerant plants, or growing plants under fluorescent light for even more information on the types of plants you may want.
Reply:there are artifical plants on the market that look so real that yu can not tell till you touch it. I would get one of these
Reply:only plants I know of offhand that do not require light, are mushrooms.
