    I have a spider plant that was in my office when I arrived. It was dead. I kept watering it and giving it Starbucks. It's a healthy beast now and is taking over. I've since cut back it's caffeine intake.

    yeah i was thinking of getting a spider plant..i heard they are pretty tough :)

    Go with something fake. All you'll have to do is dust it once in a while.

    eh..I already have a fake plant..I want something real. It will clean the air in my little area :)

    try a spider plant or a snake plant.

    either of which are pretty hard to kill
    and don't need much light.

    orchids seem to thrive in offices too.
    just add three ice cubes a week to the pot and thats all the care they really need.
    Nice shirt.

    I have lots of plants in my office, I suggest for no natural light a Pothos. They are so easy to care for and live forever.

    Even if it's not good, just feed it some coffee and you'll have a winner on your hands. :)

    I bet a good cup of Tim Horton's coffee or Dunkin Donuts would work just as well. I only went to Starbucks for the barista. :)

    Does anyone here have plants at their work? I work in a small cubicle and it's depressing as hell. I wanted to get a green leafy plant but have no luck with plants. Ive had plants and I managed to kill them. Anyone have any recommendations? :) I work in a closed off cubicle and don't get direct sunlight.

    I would love to have some green plants at work 8-) ... LOL I tried a couple of Bonsai trees and killed them in no time flat! (Not at work though, that place would kill any living thing...) Good luck !

    I've killed all kindsa plants :( the one bonsai I got, I put soooo much love and attention into it but it got those fucking red spider mites somehow :shock: and of course died.

    I bought a basil pot a couple of weeks ago... put it in the windowsill... it died 3 days later :(

    When I was doing reception work, the plant people gave me a free plant every month... they all died :( I had to tell them to stop giving them to me :(
    The Astoria??? Orgazmic!
    Verona??? it's all surmountable
    Dublin 23.08.06 "The beauty of Ireland, right there!"
    Wembley? We all believe!
    Copenhagen?? your light made us stars
    Chicago 07? And love
    What a different life
    Had I not found this love with you

    :oops: and the worst part is I fucking LOVE plants... if I could somehow keep them alive I'd have them all over the house... but I'm giving up now... the basil pot was the last straw... surely it shoulda lasted at LEAST a week :shock:

    what happened the plant after a year then? :shock:
