Default Basement Apartment and Indoor Plants

The primary concern I had with selection is whether or not there are
varying types of 'low light level' plants.

In a few months I am going to be moving into a basement apartment.
There are a few windows that I believe are facing west and are the
small kind you would have in a basement (near the ceiling).


I have started to look into getting full spectrum CFLs for floor lamps
(unfortunately LED bulbs aren't there yet). One consideration I would
like to make is for some indoor plants, but obviously don't want to
doom them.


The bedroom will be painted to a much brighter colour then it is now -
which is a dark colour that dooms the room to sadness.


Any advice?


Stay with low-light plants.
