I just remodeled my bathroom and would like to add a planter next to the corner tub, there is a 4x4 north facing window to provide light, and an overhead fan over the tub that comes on whenever the light is on (so fairly good air circulation). The window also opens at the top and will likely be open whenever anyone showers. I have room for a 16-18" planter and am hoping to plant an evergreen bamboo or horsetail or even some sort of grass - looking for a strong vertical clump. In general, I do poorly with tropical houseplants, not sure why, likely I just don't get into a regular care routine. I'd like to turn that around.

In this same room, I'd also like some sort of hanging plant above the grassy bamboo plant (same general conditions re light and circulation). Maybe a grape ivy?

Finally, over the toilet on the west wall is a niche for another plant. This would get less light but would still benefit from that large north window.

I welcome any ideas and/or tips to keep indoor plants thriving. I'm hoping that with 3 plants in a room that is used daily, I may be better at keeping things alive.
I want to live in a world where the chicken can cross the road without its motives being questioned.
