Aspidistra Plant. This plant can survive lots of neglect and growing conditions that will kill many other plants, such as low light conditions. Aspidistra elatior, or the cast iron plant, is native to china and japan.
Aspidistra plants can be commonly found today throughout southern unites states (such as louisiana) where they grow carefree in dense, dark shade as groundcover. This plant works really well in dim corners and corridors and generally those places where other plants may have failed to thrive. It has gorgeous tall, dark green, paddle shaped leaves that make a real statement.
