How Spokane Businesses Can Keep Greenery Thriving Through Winter
Winter Challenges for Indoor Plants
When Spokane’s winter settles in, the drop in daylight and humidity can take a toll on even the most resilient indoor plants. For commercial spaces, that can mean drooping leaves, dry soil, and a less-inviting atmosphere. The good news? With a few simple adjustments, your greenery can stay vibrant all season long. At LuxGreenery, we design and maintain office plants that thrive year-round — here’s how to keep your interior landscape looking fresh through the colder months.
1. Maximize Winter Light
Spokane’s shorter days mean less natural light, especially in office buildings with tinted windows or northern exposures.
Move plants closer to windows where they can catch the limited sunlight.
Clean dust off leaves and windows to maximize light absorption.
Add LED grow lights for areas with little to no natural light.
For low-light environments, choose hardy varieties like ZZ plants, pothos, or snake plants — all proven to do well in Spokane’s winter offices.
2. Adjust Watering Schedules
Even though the air feels dry, plants usually need less water in winter when growth slows.
Check soil moisture before watering — the top inch should feel dry.
Avoid overwatering, which can cause root rot.
Skip misting moss walls or preserved arrangements — they thrive without added moisture.
At LuxGreenery, our maintenance team uses specialized watering schedules and monitoring to keep every plant healthy year-round.
3. Maintain Proper Humidity

Perfect for dry, low humidity spaces
Indoor heating can make office air especially dry. Counteract this by:
Adding humidifiers near clusters of plants.
Grouping plants together to create natural humidity.
Choosing species that tolerate dry air, like Dracaena or Sansevieria.
Balanced humidity keeps foliage lush and prevents crispy leaves — a common winter issue.
4. Refresh and Rotate Your Greenery
By midwinter, even the best-maintained greenery can start to look tired. That’s why LuxGreenery offers rotational arrangements — seasonal plant swaps that keep your office looking fresh and lively year-round. We replace plants that are out of season with new, healthy ones that fit your lighting and temperature conditions.
For darker months, consider incorporating preserved moss art or low-maintenance mixed arrangements. These stay beautiful without sunlight or watering, bringing color and natural texture to your space when outdoor landscapes are gray.
