This is where succulents come into play. These tiny plants are perfect for an indoor atmosphere as they require very little space to grow, and are relatively much easier to care for than a common houseplant. Also, the fact that they bring in a whole new, pleasant aesthetic to your home or office is a very nice bonus.
