The only other living thing sharing your long summer workdays and manning your office while you’re gone for the weekend is your plant! Besides emitting oxygen to help you through the day, many plants are credited for being super beneficial for closed office spaces. One such plant is the Spathiphyllum. A leafy plant with white flower sail heads, this plant is known to absorb many toxins including those emitted from printers, Air Conditioners and traffic. Care for it by watering the soil once a week and it will care for you all year long!

It’s a proven fact that water usage doubles in the summer months. Pools are filled, showers increase and gardens need quenching. Tap into your eco friendly conscience on World Environment Day celebrated every June 5th and honor Mother Nature. A few tips to cut down your water use will help you, your plants and the environment. Enjoy a cool guilt free summer!

• Water your garden or any outdoor plants early in the morning. This reduces evaporation and leaf scorching.
• Take time whilst watering so that the soil absorbs the water and it doesn’t run across the surface.
• Replace grass under trees with mulch which help retain water.

A father’s love can’t be bought and no matter what you spend, you have not spent enough. Send a small token of your love by ordering one of our fab finds. These stylish items serve as great desk arrangements and the thought itself will surely make your papa proud!
