Indoor Office Plant

Indoor Office Plant

As a member of a rental company houseplants in Sydney, Australia, we are very aware of the reaction people in offices that indoor plants. When plants recently installed the reaction of staff is almost always positive and friendly, and most people would like to have a plant near your desk. The plants seem to improve staff morale. On the other hand, removing the plants is not popular, and sometimes we have been asked by management to remove the plants when the staff is not there, to try to limit the impact of its disposal in morality.

I guess it makes sense that people have an affinity with vegetation. It is part of nature, and have lived near the plants over millions of years, only recently have begun to lock ourselves in concrete boxes far from nature. I guess that, as the saying goes, indoor plants bring the outside ... inside.

The other thing we've noticed is that people love and well cared for plants healthy but depressed when a plant is not the best. Sometimes we receive calls from customers concerned, worrying about a plant that can have a yellow leaf (and is otherwise very healthy), but they are worried that he might be dying, and they are worried. Healthy plants and well maintained facilities to improve the moral, but not sick. Indeed, it could depress morale.

Over the years many studies that have been supported by our observations.
In 1986, a study by Joan Aitken and Rodger Palmer, University of Missouri found that:

1. Most men and women in the study thought of houseplants which gives an impression of heat in the workplace.

2. The effective use of indoor plants can give the impression of a well managed organization. The title of his work was, appropriately, "The use of plants to promote warmth and caring in a corporate environment." That companies do not want to have a well managed workplace care? Well, it seems to have well maintained indoor plants help to achieve this, and the best way is to have a professional rental service houseplants.

In 1999, Oxford Brookes University conducted a study entitled "Green Plants for the Feel Good Factor," which concluded that:

1. Perception people in an interior space is more positive in the presence of indoor plants.

2. The interior space is perceived as more relaxed and less stressful, with plants Indoor.

3. Both males and females showed a preference to sit near the plants.

The Green Building Council of Australia awards "Green Star points to the use of indoor plants in their evaluation of respect for the environment inside a building, but only if the plants are visible for all locations work. Given the studies above this seems a very perceptive condition.
One merit to study a mention, and that is a study of Engelbert tter KÃ ¶ working on behalf of the Bavarian State Ministry of Food, Agriculture and Forestry. The study was conducted in 94 offices and over a period two years and found that:

1. The environment in the offices of the plants was more fresh, made them feel less stressed, made the job feel more human and, in general, seem to a high degree of their environment

2. The plants in offices to improve employee perception of their welfare, and improve the comfort factor of the offices.

3. With improved conditions and perceptions, employee's will enjoy their work situation better, Happy employees = more power and bosses happy.

What are the best indoor plant in the office?

I want a houseplant, easy to handle, not big. Any good suggestion?

Spathiphyllum (Peace Lily) is the only good plant an office that will flourish with any regularity. It is a great indoor plant and so becomes a wilting if you forget to water. In dracaenas foliage plants (plants corn) work well for offices and are easy to care. The most beautiful is "Janet Craig", but there are several varieties with variegated leaves and pink different widths. Aglaonema job well. They have interesting and attractive models in silver or white in the leaves of different shades of green. They are also very easy. What unites all these boards is that thrive in low light, and are not to persnickty as irrigation needs.
