Bat Lilies are the most amazing flowers in the world. They are one of the few flowers that can survive being indoors for many months without any special care. They do not need to be kept in a greenhouse, but can be kept in a vase of water with a little bit of soil and placed on a windowsill. The best part about these flowers is that they can also be grown from seeds. Bat Lilies grow best in a room with indirect sunlight, so make sure you place them near a window or on a sunny side of your room.How To Grow And Care For Black Bat Flower Urban Plants
