Office foliage
The world’s most miserable tree has appeared in our office by the window. It’s a tree because it is indoors, outside it would be a sapling.
Now a healthy tree has a canopy that literally blocks out the sun. Even a young tree has a healthy covering of leaves if not as impressive a set as a mature specimen. This sad little thing has a single leaf for every foot of branch, and most of them are yellowy green rather than a good, rich green.
A little later when no one’s looking, I am going to give it a cup of coffee. That’ll perk it up.

Poor little thing.

What few leaves it has are oval, but very pointed at the end.
Like this?
It's amazing how popular a houseplant they are when they're so high-maintenance.

Our sad specimen's leaves don't appear to be as glossy, but that may well be because it's poorly though...
