[IBC] NEED YOUR ADVISE
"hardiness" and "in the house" don't go together. When a plant is inside,
it is subject to low humidity ( which most plants don't like) and relatively high temps. ( which most plants don't like). For these reasons, the best you can hope for is a plant which tolerates (note: not enjoys) these features. In addition, you'll want one which also tolerates low light. You say in your message that your house has both direct and indirect light. That's fine, but your tree would still not be getting as much light as if it were outside. So the trees available for inside growing are limited. The two most popular ones are ficus and schefflera. Neither is really a tree, but both can be fooled into thinking they are. Which ever you choose, find a spot for them with the most light, the coolest temp. and the highest humidity.

It would be in a well lit room with both direct and indirect sunlight.
