Office Plants on Rent in Bangalore

Floors inside campuses along Outer Ring Road, Whitefield and Manyata Tech Park get steady artificial light and a constant AC draft rather than strong sun, so we lean on foliage that tolerates low humidity and indirect light rather than plants bred for a bright windowsill.

Because Bangalore's mean maximum even in April, its hottest month, stays around 34°C, plants placed near entrance lobbies or unconditioned corridors are not under the same heat stress they would face in a hotter city, which widens the palette we can place outside the AC zone.

Bangalore's annual rainfall runs to roughly 1,078mm on the IMD's 1991-2020 normal, most of it arriving in short, heavy spells rather than steady drizzle, and the humidity spike that follows a downpour can reach an entrance lobby even when the rest of the floor stays dry under air conditioning, so plants placed near revolving doors get checked for fungal spotting on the visit right after heavy rain.

Watering around the two monsoons

The city gets rain from both the southwest monsoon between June and September and a second, lighter northeast monsoon in October and November, so the watering schedule on our visit sheet changes twice rather than once a year, and again for the drier months from December to May.

Independent houses versus tech-park towers

Older localities such as Indiranagar and Jayanagar still have a good number of independent houses with their own small gardens, so an office plant contract for a business in one of those areas sometimes sits inside a converted bungalow rather than a glass tower, and the plant brief changes accordingly, toward pots that suit a verandah or a courtyard rather than a reception desk under fluorescent light.

Newer IT-corridor buildings along Outer Ring Road and in Manyata Tech Park are built with larger, deeper floor plates, which puts more desks well away from any window, so the plant selection there leans further toward low-light foliage than it would in a smaller, older office building.
