Perhaps the fastest growing trend in interior decorating today is what is known as interior landscaping. What it basically involves is the greening up of interior spaces by bringing the effect of the “outdoors” inside. Of course the first thing that should come to mind is live plants. However; the truth be told, its fake or silk plants that are the first choice in most cases.
The Environment in Your Building is Fake! - Like It or Not!
“Fake”! You say, between bites of your granola bar and sips of your wheat grass juice. “I would have no part of any such thing”! The problem is though that once you take a close look, the living environment in any building is also fake. Fake lighting, fake temperatures, fake humidity levels and fake daytime-nighttime lighting schedules.
Normal Interior Lighting Is the Wrong Wavelength for Plants
So while you “can” go the “natural route” in any office or business setting, if you plan on going further than just some plants on shelves near windows, you are going to have to make some major changes in the lighting, temperature and humidity. You see, for one thing standard light just won’t cut it no matter how powerful they are. They’re the wrong wavelength for live plants.
It’s Always Best to Avoid Branching Out into “Plant Farming”
It’s also important to bear in mind that whatever business you’re in, its most likely “not” related to agriculture and getting into the business of keeping and maintaining a bunch of live plants is, in effect “agriculture”. The best advice you can get is to stick to what your familiar with and expert at and leave the farming to farmers.
