Working from home was a difficult transition for me, but adding plants (and having good light) make all the difference. I thought you folks would approve.
This is a beautiful setup!
I love it! Looks great. I’m jealous, I’ve had to severely limit my houseplant numbers and locations because my cats will try to eat anything and everything, even the plants that supposedly sting or taste awful to them. I’m hoping they grow out of it one day so I can have something set up like this!
This is my dream set up. Absolutely gorgeous!!! Half nature half tech
Lovely, thank you for sharing! For some reason I can’t see any comments in jerboa atm, so please excuse if this has already been asked. What is the tall one on the left, and is it happy to stay away from the light? All office greens complain when they’re not plastered up against a window.
The tall one on the left is an arabica coffee plant I’ve grown from seed. It’s actually fine with the indirect light from being away from the windows and from the bright lights above.
That makes perfect sense since I think coffee is grown in the understory? How long has it taken to grow to its size? If it’s not too long, I give it a try!
Gorgeous! I agree that having plants around makes working from home so much better. I have an ivy on my desk that has grown so much alongside my career! What kind of mouse is that? Looks ergonomic af.
Plant goals!
Fantastic vibes. Are the plants getting all their light from the window or do you have grow lights in there too?
It’s a combination of the windows and some 6000-lumen garage lights I put in the van lights above. You can kinda see one of those at the top of the pic.
This is beautiful! Thanks for sharing.
Is that the Rocinante!?
Also, nice plants!
It is! Nice eye. There are other nerdy Easter eggs placed around as well.
ETA: needy to nerdy
I’m so jealous. I’ve never had a green thumb and we have almost no direct sunlight in our house, so plant growing just is never going to be a thing. But I grew up with a mother and grandparents who filled their houses with plants and I do miss it.
God damn thats beautiful!
Wow it looks so good!
So beautiful! I tried to plant basil from the supermarket 3 times and it died 3 times. I wish I had your skills and knowledge to keep so many plants alive.
Keep a plant journal! Write down what a plant needs (light, water, fertilizer, conditions) and then keep a daily log of what you did each day. Also look at your plants daily and you’ll be more likely to notice if it seems to need anything. :)
Oh holy shit! That’s gorgeous.
I love the vibe! Being surrounded by life has a way of making a room feel so peaceful
