Abstract: The objective of the paper is to shed lights on the use of flowers to create recreational values in Dhaka City organisations. The information has been collected primarily from secondary sources but few interviews have been conducted to get insights into the issue. Interestingly, the aforementioned issues can be resolved by designating a few spaces. This paper focuses on the imperative role that indoor plants and flowers play in helping employees find recreation, mental wellbeing, and motivation within the walls of office premises. This paper creates empirical contribution as no previous research has been carried out to explore the value of using flower in organisation and its impact on employee wellbeing in the context of Dhaka, Bangladesh.

Keywords: flower; recreation; greening of organisation; employee motivation; wellbeing.
