Office plants, no natural light

puffinmuffin

Hi,
My colleague and I will soon be moving into our own office, good for us as we have been sharing with the boss! We would like to have some plants in there but it has no light source and is air-conditioned. Can anyone suggest any plants which will be happy there or will we just have to go for fakes?

Hello,

We have a christmas cacti which is at least 20 years old, I'm not joking.

It gets watered when the boss thinks about it, I doubt its ever been replanted with new soil. Its in the darkest corner of the room at the side of a window which does not get any light. We have to have the lights on all day every day. Its about 16" across and flowers its socks of every year. I know as the flowers drop in my printer :rolleyes:

Try this website. You can put in size and style of plant you'd like and the conditions it will be in. Hope you find something...

Aspidistra - the Victorians called this the Cast Iron plant as it's pretty much indestructible.

Peace Lilies always grow well in artificial light.
