Central Square Florist has a date for you to highlight on the office calendar–National Bosses Day, October 20. On this day, we take a minute to express our appreciation to our leaders, guides, mentors and teachers. It’s a great way to remind some of the most important people in the workplace that their efforts have not gone unnoticed, and that the special position they occupy impacts the many people who work with them. The best way to communicate your appreciation is to offer a little gift, but if you want to throw an office party too we’re not going to stop you.

A Succulent Garden is a no-brainer gift for your boss. Why? It’s a low-maintenance bit of green that can be kept right on the desk, and the best part is, it’s incredibly pleasing (some would say calming) to look at. In this case, you’ve even got a pop of color in the center, though all of it works together to provide a dynamic organic scene, a little bit of the woods, forest and desert right on a desk.

We’ve never seen anyone turn down a gift like this, which is one of those things we all love and admire but rarely buy for ourselves. It’s smart to offer your boss something that introduces nature into the work space and gives them something to their eyes on during a busy day leading the way.
