Plants like rubber plants, snake plants, pothos, and ZZ plants thrive in low-light under-stairs nooks. These varieties tolerate shade and require minimal watering, making them ideal for hard-to-access spaces. Placing a tall rubber plant on a pull-out tray allows easy care from the stair edge and adds greenery without blocking light or creating hazards. Choosing low-light plants balances beauty and practicality in tight under-stairs spaces.
