To ensure that plants thrive in your workspace, they need to be chosen correctly.
Tree from a seed
Plants for officeIn spacious rooms, lobby,The corridors and staircases look spectacularly large plants with large leaves: Monstera, Dieffenbachia, Chinese rose, laurel. However, they will be pleased with bright foliage only with an abundance of light, so you need to install them in wide windows. Attractive and unpretentious fruit trees are attractive:,, avocado, some citrus and figs. The last, however, 1-2 months at the end of the year stands without leaves. In order for the office to decorate an orange, tangerine or lemon tree, it is not necessary to buy a seedling in a store. Sow the seeds of the eaten fruit in a pot of soil - and within two years you will have a mini-tree, and after five there are chances to see fragrant flowers. True, for this you need not to give the branches to grow. Pinch (break off) them in spring and summer after the 3-5th leaf. Mini-jungleIf you love flowers but are not ready to get themtake care of, choose the most unpretentious ones, calmly reacting to the fact that they are forgotten to water, loosen the soil, add fertilizer. Pay attention to the various ivies, in particular hoya (wax ivy). This plant not only saturates the air with the aroma of long-flowering "umbrellas", but also warns of ... rain: before precipitation, droplets of nectar appear on the leaves. Another plant that is a must have in the office is chlorophytum. It looks good in hanging pots and saturates the room with oxygen more effectively than other indoor flowers. Those who are ready to devote at least 20 minutes a day to plants can get roses, chrysanthemums, cyclamens, camellias, azaleas, gardenias. But they should winter on a cool windowsill, where the temperature does not rise above +8-+100 °C.

We recommend
- Do not even place unpretentious bushes in dark corners, as well as high on cabinets, where there is no natural light.
- Offices have dry air, and plants need to be sprayed. But if this is inconvenient, you can install an air humidifier or a decorative indoor fountain near the plants.
- Do not allow the soil in the pots to dry out. Water the flowers 2-3 times a week, do not skip watering before the weekend.
- Inspect your plants regularly to watch for pests. Bad signs include withering leaves, yellow spots, and sticky droplets.
