Fortunately, there are plenty of low-maintenance plants that are perfect for the office. Here are some of the best options:

3. English Ivy

Soften the hard lines of a desk with a trailing plant like English ivy.

4. ZZ Plant

The ZZ plant is a succulent that has become quite popular as a houseplant due to its tolerance for low light and its propensity to thrive with minimal water.

Whether an office is flooded with natural light or is tucked in a cozy corner, the carefree philodendron will add cheer with its glossy green leaves and trailing habit.

6. Lucky Bamboo

Lucky bamboo grows well in low-light environments and can grow without soil when the stems are submerged in water.

7. Cactus

Cacti are perfect office mates because they don't need pruning and they're slow-growing so they'll rarely need to be repotted.
