I would like to hang a plant or two in my bathrooom. It is lit only by artificial light, I keep a small lamp on in there for about 12 to 14 hours/day. There is a possibility I could have more light from the overhead fixture if needed. I was wondering what kind of plants would do best in this lighting condition?
Thank you in advance for any advice you could give me.

I have a baby tears (Soleirolia soleirolii) in my bathroom. It's only been there for a week, but from what I have read, they do well in bathrooms because of the moist air. I'm not sure about florescent light, but I do know they like indirect light.
