It really depends on whether your apt. is sunny or dark.Plants need sunshine- -it's called photosenthesis,that's the way they eat-so they can grow big & strong. However there are plants that require little light- like mother-in-law tongue. Devils ivy (Pothos) is another one that does good almost anywhere. I suggest you get a plant book from the library also...

Grow the Gloxinia plant in a sunny window. Repot in good soil once a year. Not fussy on watering or care. Blooms beautifully. No bad smell like geraniums.
