With more time spent together and at home, it’s the perfect time for dad to be getting to know plants - in the home, on your balcony or in the garden!  Plants as a new hobby, gardening for exercise or just the feel-good vibes surrounding yourself with nature gives - there has never been a better time to give a living gift!

There are a few ‘must have’ items for this to happen effectively and a computer, internet access, desk and chair rank at the top, but what’s going to make your home office feel good are the less ‘essential’ items like pictures of friends and family, good lighting, and a few great plants.  Don’t underestimate the calming qualities of a few potted ‘work mates’, that are not only great for our mental health, but also purify the air.

This Autumn a renewed passion for plants and the natural world is being embraced in our homes and reflects our environment like never before.
