A corner window office would be the best place to set up an indoor garden. But for those who need to climb a few more rungs up the corporate ladder to deserve a corner window location, a cubicle's tight setting doesn't have to be a deterrent. Even in a cramped office, there's always "aerial" room for hanging plants!

Here are some tips on adding hanging plants to the office garden:

1. Provide adequate catch basins for drainage. Indoor hanging plants, because they are "suspended" in mid-air and looming over furniture or carpet, must have reliable and adequate drainage catcher bins securely fastened onto the planter. Dripping hanging plants can create an ugly mess on desks, documents, equipment, and flooring.

2. Hang the plants at a height that will allow convenient watering. Whether the plants have to be taken down or reached via watering can, consider having to regularly pull up a chair or step ladder -- hassles like these can make even the most thoughtful plant lover put off or neglect the watering chore.

3. Use only durable wires and cords. Check for rust, fraying, or wear and tear, and remedy immediately. Imagine the catastrophe when one suspension wire breaks causing the whole planter (or its contents) to come crashing down on an open filing cabinet (or an officemate)!
