The plant I would like to introduce to you is calla lilies, which were originally grown in the swampy areas of South Africa. They like the warm and humid environment all the year round, and the maintenance position should maintain a high air humidity. If conditions permit, it can also grow well in flowerpots, produce charming flowers, and even grow on the windowsill.
