Are you in a position of such power/status that you could plug in an extra
lite or so at your workstation? Because then the world would be your
oyster, plantwise. What about creating a light garden under your desk? I
used to do this before I got a greenhouse. now I have no plants indoors
whatsoever. Get a light meter and see what footcandles you have.
Interiorscapers(ugh) have placed some plantings in areas with no natural
lighting and they have done well for years.
