Hi, I'm new to this forum and actually new to plants and gardening. I have 4 plants inside my apartments. Photos of all attached (together and seperate). I appreciate if someone expert can tell me what are their names? so I can research more on how to take care of them.

Also, I've put them in front of window, so they get direct sun light for about 3-4 hours during day. But I'm not sure how much light each need.

#1 and #2 are not in good shape and getting pale. Is this related to over/under lighting? or watering?

Ant advise would be greatly apprecaited.

Welcome to th forum!
The first is a Sanseveria- care
Second is a lily of some sort- This will show you the care of most
Third is Dieffenbachia- care
And the fourth one I know but the name is escaping me right now.

The second one is probably an Easter lily which you could just plant outside and let it bloom again next year, if you are in the proper zone. Otherwise, it won't bloom again this year and many people throw them away.

And the last one is one I call an arum. Not sure how accurate that is.

I think the first plant is a bromeliad known as a Silver Vase.
The botanical name is Aechmea fasciata.
