DAY OF THE TRIFFIDS

In 2009, when Des and Allie Brennan introduced a small potted pothos cutting to their office, their intention was to add some vibrancy to the workspace. Little did they know that over 14 years later the plant would flourish to an astonishing length of nearly 600 feet! It continuously produces new shoots that need to be carefully pinned up along the office walls and ceiling almost on a daily basis. In the open-concept office plan, which spans 50 by 25 square feet, the colossal pothos has grown to such an extent that it needs to loop and intertwine itself several times across the ceiling.
