Just read this tidbit in today’s Financial Times:
“Research at Washington State University showed that those in an office with plants experienced a 12 per cent improvement in reaction times when compared with those in a plant-free office, as well as lower blood pressure and quicker recovery from stress”
The article also explains that plants lead to healthier atmosphere because they reduce COs, absorb VOC’s (volatile organic compounds) and keep the air more moist and cool.
I just paused to say thanks to my little plant and the flowers at my desk for bringing good vibes and peace of mind my way…
Note to any new plant owners~most plants die due to over-watering, so go easy on the watering can. And opt for plants without flowers to avoid allergy ailments.
