Plants at work

I went from having my own corner office in August of 2011 to having a cube on a cube farm.

I went from banking to health care and have never looked back. =)

I don't typically talk about where I work on my blog.

But I like it- better hours (weekends off) and benefits-which if you know me, I need those.

I decide when I want to go in (anywhere from 6am-9am-but not 9:01am!)

If you hear my hubby talk about it, he tells people how I wear jeans to work everyday and tennis shoes~

if I decide to wear shoes at all, and how I work only 4-5 hours on Friday. All of which is very true!!!

Anyway on to my plants lol.

This is my newest plant to add to my area.

It came from Flower City in Asian Plaza

They offer just the plants- to plants already in containers.

My co-workers and I opted for the Plant only option because they are cheaper.

I cannot take credit for originally finding the bamboo, nor the purchase of mine. 

Here is is in it's new glass container.

I bought Clear Glass disks, with some Red and Green to accent.

I think I will need to get some more tho to ensure it stays up.

I also added these green deco balls that are all the rage now in the plant world.

I bought mine at the Cleveland Home and Garden show Feb 2012, 

for another bamboo plant I bought there. (Pics below) 

These "new" deco balls crack me up, let me tell you why.

I bought these so called deco balls years ago for Q from Steve Spangler Science

 when the Mentos Volcano was all the rage. 

I got a ton, in different sizes for cheap.

Now they are everywhere, and a lot more than what I originally paid for them. 

They are super tiny. Then you hydrate them in water then- Bam!

You can kinda see in the pic below that they get to be the size of a marble once fully hydrated. 

Below are all three of my plants that give my area fresh oxygen. 

And we need it because all we do is gab all day! LOL

I am surprised they aren't huge from all the carbon dioxide they take in from us. ;)

Hopefully the bamboo will start to straighten out- from the looks of it, it was reaching toward a light.

I now have it in the opposite direction in an effort to "fix" it.
