Indoors, I'm fairly satisfied with the houseplants I have at the moment. The lipstick plant is the only exception: it has slowly been dying out. Perhaps it simply went dormant in the cold temperatures over winter, and will spring up from the two remaining green stems, but in the meantime I added some rooted tendrils of philodendron to this hanging container.
I also recently bought an
autumn fern to hang from a less-sunny area. Together with the spider plant, peperomia, maranta, and Thanksgiving cactus, the ceiling beams of our living room and kitchen are nicely decorated.
At my workplace, I've been moved to a desk area under a skylight. I stare up at the ceiling, imagining a jungle of happy green plants filling the 5-foot-tall rectangular cutout that leads up to a glass pane set in the roof. I don't have the authority to make the "jungle" happen, but figured I could bring in a desk plant or two, and am starting with a
dracaena.
