I want to know if there are any good indoor plants that have dark red
leaves. Can be a vine too. I considered croton plant but the room I
want to put it in gets only indirect light. It has a window but we
keep it closed all the time. Could you please suggest alternatives?

Thanks.

Which compass direction does the window face? When in the day does it get
the most light?

Most plants that have brightly colored leaves tend to lose their color when
grown indoors with weaker light.

If you try to grow a croton under those conditions it will drop its leaves
and die.

It faces East but the window has blinds and we keep the blinds closed
all the time. The room is bright enough that it doesn't need lights on
during the day.

Try artificial plants or an erotic sculpture painted dark red instead.
