Low Light Office Plants
There is nothing better than a thriving green plant to add warmth & brightness to a room. Some people have the knack for keeping plants alive...and some don't! With indoor plants one of the biggest challenges is selecting plants that are suitable for the lighting conditions. Unfortunately most offices & homes are not built with the priority being natural light, therefore we all have some dark corners and some rooms with little natural light.
