# What is this magnificent being? She’s been an office plant for close…

_Posted by Topekatwister on 2025-05-08_

What is this magnificent being? She’s been an office plant for close to 20 years, passed down through a few people. Lives in a room with zero natural light, all fluorescent and seems to be thriving! I just have no clue what kind of plant it is. (Obviously there is pothos at the base, but what’s the tree thing?)

I’d leave it where it’s been thriving! Beautiful plant!!

She was kinda sad a year ago, and my co-worker put a lot of effort into being her back to a healthier state. She’s grown a ton of new leaves this past year!
