The coworker gift is a tightrope: too generic feels lazy, too personal feels odd. A little glass terrarium walks it perfectly. It's a living thing, which flowers and desk trinkets aren't, yet air plants shrug off neglect that would doom a fern — an occasional misting keeps them going.
The verdict
Give it to the coworker whose desk could use some life — it's charming, conversation-starting, and nearly impossible to kill through ordinary neglect. Living plants can ship poorly in deep cold, so December orders deserve a seller with strong recent reviews.
