Quick Office Plant Buying Guide
Many offices want greenery but are unsure how much is enough. In most cases, the answer is not dozens of plants. A smaller number of larger plants usually creates a much more considered result.
The right quantity depends on the size of the space, the number of key zones and how much visual impact you want.
| Office type | Typical plant quantity | What this usually covers |
|---|---|---|
| Small office / studio | 3–5 plants | Desks, corners, one meeting area |
| Small-medium office | 5–10 plants | Main workspace, reception, shared areas |
| Medium office | 10–15 plants | Reception, meeting rooms, open-plan workspace |
| Large office / showroom | 15–20+ plants | Multiple rooms, larger open-plan spaces, hospitality areas |
For a smaller office
Start with 5 plants
