The high percentage of people had cancer and all sort of baddies and were actually office workers is amazing.
I did few plants interior design for big firms ,High tech, and even head offices of pizza hat, and pizza domino , part of it was to help improve the staff volume of work by improving the environment, so included a plant for any table. (in one place they reported that it helped to increase sales- even to me it sound funny)
In most cases if the office was not designed to have plants there is not enough light for plants to grow well on most desks. So the case is to find plants that can look well for a long time as posible and when need to replace it.
round is good for karma and so as tidy plants.
paperomia with dark leaves variety - did well- tiny pot for small desks.
In my desk I useBaeucarnia wich we use more as a garden plant in Israel- (personally I do not like that garden monster but as a pot plant it is real tidy easy and well easy lasting (round too)
In many cases where more light was available we used alonema commutatum and several types of dracaene
another surprising very low light plant that I found doing well (but very slow) is the aspidestra but like to use it in big clamps in huge container combined with colorful dracenas
What may be low cost and short term solution is 'baby pal trees' such as fishtail palm, cycas and other young palm trees. most palm trees prefer low light when small and will last a year even in no light condition as they still have a big source in their big seeds and leaves.
I am also supply some of these plants to the garden centres these days so will be happy to help if anyone needs any.
Thanks for your response. I agree that finding a plant which can survive and thrive in the office environment can be difficult, which is why we recommend using a contractor to install the planting rather than DIY.
