Plants That Start With L

Lace Aloe grows in bright, indirect light at 150 to 250 μmol·m⁻²·s⁻¹.

• Position it 5 ft / 1.5 m from a south, west, or east-facing window.
• Avoid giving the rosette a clear view of the sky. Filter unavoidable direct sun with a sheer curtain.
• Excessive direct light may scorch or discolor the leaves. Weak light can stretch the compact rosette and limit flowering.
• Check photosynthetically active radiation with a PAR meter or PAR meter app, expressed as PPFD (μmol·m⁻²·s⁻¹).

Lady Palm prefers bright, indirect light between 150 and 250 μmol·m⁻²·s⁻¹.

• Set it 5 ft / 1.5 m from a south, west, or east-facing window.
• Do not give the foliage an unobstructed view of the sky. Use a sheer curtain if direct sun would otherwise strike the leaves.
• Strong sunlight can scorch the broad segments. Insufficient light can weaken or slow new growth.
• A PAR meter or PAR meter app can measure photosynthetically active radiation, reported as PPFD (μmol·m⁻²·s⁻¹).

Lemon Button Fern grows best in medium to bright indirect light at 150 to 200 μmol·m⁻²·s⁻¹.

• Keep the pot 6 ft / 1.8 m from a south, west, or east-facing window.
• Avoid an unobstructed view of the sky. If direct light reaches the fronds, diffuse it with a sheer curtain.
• Excess sun may scorch the small leaflets. Too little light can slow growth and thin the compact form.
• Use a PAR meter or PAR meter app to measure photosynthetically active radiation as PPFD (μmol·m⁻²·s⁻¹).

Leopard Plant needs bright, indirect light at 150 to 250 μmol·m⁻²·s⁻¹.

• Position it 5 ft / 1.5 m from a south, west, or east-facing window.
• The plant should not have a direct view of the sky. Filter unavoidable sunlight through a sheer curtain.
• Too much sun may scorch or fade the large patterned leaves. Low light can slow growth and reduce flowering.
• A PAR meter or PAR meter app can check photosynthetically active radiation, measured as PPFD (μmol·m⁻²·s⁻¹).

Lipstick Plant performs best in bright, indirect light measuring 150 to 250 μmol·m⁻²·s⁻¹.

• Place it 5 ft / 1.5 m from a south, west, or east-facing window.
• Avoid giving the foliage a direct view of the sky. Soften unavoidable direct sun with a sheer curtain.
• Excess sun may scorch the glossy leaves. Too little light can slow growth and reduce the display of red flowers.
• Measure photosynthetically active radiation with a PAR meter or PAR meter app, reported as PPFD (μmol·m⁻²·s⁻¹).

Lucky Bamboo grows best in bright, indirect light at 150 to 250 μmol·m⁻²·s⁻¹.

• Place it 5 ft / 1.5 m from a south, west, or east-facing window.
• Keep it from having an unobstructed view of the sky. Use a sheer curtain where direct sunlight cannot be avoided.
• Harsh sun may scorch or bleach the narrow leaves. Too little light can produce weak, slow growth.
• A PAR meter or PAR meter app can measure photosynthetically active radiation as PPFD (μmol·m⁻²·s⁻¹).
