Can a plant grow in the darkness?

Yes, some plants can grow in darkness, but most plants need light to photosynthesize and produce energy. Plants that can grow in darkness, like some fungi and certain root vegetables, have adapted to obtain energy through other means such as breaking down organic matter. However, these plants may not thrive or grow as well as those that have access to light.
