I recently got caught up buying plants at the nursery near my place because I felt bored. Most of them have died but that will not deter me from having plants at my future home and office desk. The benefits of having plants at work and living spaces cannot be understated. According to this Daily Mail article, having potted plants at your desk, especially when you do not face a window, can help relieve stress. I can testify to the mental benefits of having greenery in front of you. Until recently, I had a small aquarium tank filled with plants and some small fish in the office and I often find myself staring at it and feeling a sense of ease.
