Loading docks, service elevators, and early-morning load-ins are a normal part of our week.

Trade shows, conferences, product launches, galas, and corporate events, plus home staging and open houses. If you're not sure yours fits, just ask.

Yes. We rent greenery for staged homes, model units and open houses, with the same $3,000 minimum. Tell us the rooms, the look and how long you need the plants, and we’ll shape the proposal around your timeline.

Yes. Most conference and activation builds land at $3,000–$12,000. Full-floor, multi-zone, and multi-city programs can scale beyond $100,000. We source plants and planters to order, so we can build to the scope your event needs.

Event plant rentals have a $3,000 minimum. Pricing is per plant, with planters included. One rental price covers up to three days; longer rentals are quoted for the full agreed period. Delivery is a separate, one-time $500 non-taxable line. Your itemized proposal confirms plant selection, rental dates, applicable plant tax and service scope.

Four to six weeks ahead is ideal, and bigger orders need more lead time. We can often handle rush requests too. Reach out and we'll tell you right away what's possible for your date.

Live plants, their agreed planters, drop-off and event-agreed pickup. Your team or venue handles receiving, interior movement, placement and return to the agreed collection point.
