Can anyone identify these?  I’d like to know if a North facing bathroom would be ok for them, or do they need sunshine?

    The pictures won't load for me sorry.
    If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.

    Hi KoG. Looks like some type of silver leaved pepperomia, a tradescantia and a polka dot plant (hypoestes? if memory serves).
    I wouldn't dare to give care advise as I don't grow them, (learned the names at college years ago and that's the only info that's stuck).

    I think the first one might be one of the fancy-leaved types of begonia.
    The tradescantia needs plenty of light (I have that one in an east-facing bathroom but it's not really bright enough for it).
    Doncaster, South Yorkshire. Soil type: sandy, well-drained

    Could be Jenny. I missed the slightly lopsided look of the leaves. Good spot by you 👍.

    Thanks all.  They are very pretty so I think we’ll find the correct facing window for all of them.
