Basically, sunny conditions. Plants need light energy for photosynthesis.

The basic requirements are:

Chloroplasts
-- The chloroplast is where the reactions that produce carbohydrates are located. The chloroplast captures light energy by using special pigments. These pigments are known as thylakoids.
Light-Absorbing Pigments
-- The main light-absorbing pigment is known as chlorophyll. Plants contain two forms of this pigment in addition to other pigments. These pigments absorb, collect and concentrate energy from the sun. Such energy is then used in photosynthesis.
Light Waves
-- Light-absorbing pigments used in photosynthesis are not all equal. Some of them cannot absorb light. Additionally, light energy is not necessarily always absorbed; it can be transmitted or reflected as well. Only absorbed light frequencies are useful by pigments for photosynthesis.
Water
-- Water is a necessary component of photosynthesis. Water contains the hydrogen used in the process. The absorbent light energy is used to split oxygen and water molecules. Water, like light waves, is absorbed from the exterior of the plant.
Carbon Dioxide
-- Carbon dioxide produces the carbon bonds in photosynthesis. This gas enters through the stomata of the leaves.
