How to choose and care for office plants

Lush, green plants have strength Change a placeProviding character, warmth and charm. And there is no place that I can think of it can benefit your average office a little more than a role, warmth and charm.

But grow plants in spaces without window Can be a challengeSay the least, no matter how green your thumb is.

Fortunately, there are many “low -light” household plants that will not only survive but will also develop in the commercial office places under ordinary headflower light fixtures.

These plants also reduce the need for water, which means that when you take a weekly leave, they will not miss you. And it is easy to take care of them, and make them the best of the new plant owners at home.

Pothos (Epipremnum aureum)

Mommy, a heart -shaped leaf plant that can increase 8 feet tall. Hang a vessel by a hook or place it on the overhead storage unit and let its long trunks hang on the edge. There are many types, including golden, jade and satin with low light conditions.

ZZ Plant (Zimoculcass Zimpholia)

Shining plants and a straightforward habit that can reach 3 feet long. Its tight profile makes your desk on the floor best. Consider the standard of green, spiked variety or modern black river types.

Chinese Sada Spring (Agelonima)

Smooth, sparkling, sometimes different types of leaves. Consider a variety of green leaves for color pops for dynamic red or orange strikes, a cream or a creamy pink type or cognitive touching of a cognitive touches.

Snake Plant (Dracina Triparta, formerly iconia)

The common name is one of the two granted, sharp, important addresses (the second mother’s language language) to the old -fashioned favorite. Choose the standard green type.

Cast Iron Plant (Aspadestra Elastier)

A shadow -loving tropical plant that actually prefers artificial light than sunlight. The plant is as strong as its name. Her sword -shaped green leaves can also handle too much hot or cold temperatures that often rotate through the thermostis of the Fancue Office.

Natural sunlight grows well under fluorescent lighting. It grows without a vessel or soil. You can even stick to a frame to create a living portrait. As far as care is concerned, just push it every two days with water or flee it every two or two weeks (more often if the air is dry).

Air Fern (Seritaria Argentia)

Do not get confused with air plants, air franches are marketed as plants that do not need sunlight or water. Looks great to be true? This is. Air francs are not actually plants. They are not alive too. The remnants of the dried skeleton of the marine hydrozes are green colors and is sold as a “household plants” restoration.
