Who doesn’t love an almost impossible-to-kill desk plant? Plant promos are trending in the industry! 70% of millennials call themselves plant parents and 66% of Americans have at least one house plant.
But there is a WHY to desk plants.
Numerous studies have shown that including living plants in office spaces can have multiple positive health effects, from calming the eyes to reducing blood pressure. In a “green” office, generating ideas and creatively solving problems is easier. Here are some stats:
• 37% reduction in anxiety • 58% reduction in reported depression
• Reduced chronic fatigue by nearly 40% • 44% reduction in office hostility
Consider How Desk Plants Can Help you GROW Your Business.
Let’s face it, the average office atmosphere is stale and doesn’t inspire people to reach their potential. In addition, most commercial buildings contain harmful airborne toxins, known as Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), that can seriously negatively impact long-term health. Based on a groundbreaking study conducted by NASA, it was found that plants can filter out large amounts of VOCs within interior spaces. In fact, indoor plants remove up to 87% of airborne toxins in just 24 hours. Studies have also proven 15 minutes of interaction with plants/day reduces stress and enhance productivity.
