Hello, All.

This is an article that I found interesting for ideas for plants if you have a
home office.

Office Plants – Growing Indoor Plants For Home Office Spaces General
Houseplant Care	 By: Mary H. Dyer, Credentialed Garden Writer Image by
KatarzynaBialasiewicz If you work at home, you may want to use plants to liven
up a bland workspace. Having living plants in your home office can make days
more pleasant, boost your mood, and increase your productivity. Read on for
suggestions on home office plants to consider. Indoor Plants for Home Offices
Choosing plants for workspaces in your home is similar to that of any
houseplant you have. Freestar Consider growing conditions, such as available
light and space, when choosing houseplants for a home office. Generally,
plants for workspaces are relatively compact, but in the home nearly anything
goes. Most require little care and tolerate occasional neglect. Here are a few
suggestions for home office space plants. Pothos (Epipremnum): A popular
office plant for good reason. It’s a lovely, fast growing plant that
cascades gracefully from hanging baskets or high shelves. Pothos tolerates
both shady corners and sunny windows. It likes to be watered every few days
but will survive an occasional period of dryness. English ivy (Hedera helix):
Requires very little attention once the roots are established. Although
English ivy is good for cool, air conditioned offices and thrives in filtered
bright light to low light, this woodland plant doesn’t do as well with
direct, intense sunlight or dramatic temperature swings. ZZ plant (Zamioculcas
zamiifolia): This plant is enjoyed for its shiny, dark green leaves. Super
hardy, it prefers moderate to bright light but tolerates low light or
fluorescent bulbs. Periods of drought are also okay but, ideally, ZZ plants
should be watered when the top two inches (5 cm.) of potting mix feel dry to
the touch. Snake plant (Sansevieria): Also known as mother-in-law’s tongue,
this is a distinctive plant with stiff, upright leaves. The plant can go a
long time without w

ater and, as a rule, monthly irrigation is plenty. Snake plant, which
tolerates both heat and air conditioning, is a good choice for a shady corner.
Rex begonia (Begonia rex cultorum): An exotic, colorful plant that is
surprisingly easy to grow. Although you may occasionally be awarded with a
pretty bloom, rex begonia is valued for its interesting foliage. While it
doesn’t appreciate intense light, it needs moderate or bright indirect light
to bring out the bold colors in the leaves. Water only when the soil feels dry
to the touch. Cactus: Cactus, as well as other succulent plants, is always one
of the best office space plants. Choose from a huge range of colors, forms,
and sizes then water sparingly. Ensure the cactus gets plenty of direct
sunlight. Freestar These, of course, are merely suggestions. Depending on your
available space, indoor conditions, and personal preferences, you could even
include a potted tree or other large floor plant, like citrus, rubber tree
plant, parlor palm and dracaena.
