When Complex filmed Steph Curry for an episode of 360 With Speedy, they shot the whole conversation inside our shop. We like to think that says something about how the place looks.

Complex · 360 With Speedy
Your job is to tell us the room and the look. Ours is that the plants show up on time, hold up all week, and leave inside your venue's move-out window.
We plan around dock appointments, freight elevators, building security, and early calls, then place every plant to your floor plan.
Before doors open we walk the room with you and move anything that is not sitting right. Rooms always read differently once they are built.
We collect everything inside your strike window. Nothing to store, nothing to return, and nothing left for your venue or production team.
Fully insured, with COIs prepared to your venue's requirements. New York buildings are exacting about access and paperwork; we plan for both.
We group our plants by what they do for a room, not by botanical name. Mix and match, and we'll help you put the look together.

Delivering across
Dates, venue, booth or room number, and the look you want. A floor plan helps; for Javits, include the exhibitor manual and appointed contractor if you have them.
An itemized proposal with plant references, suggested placements, and one clear price — including the New York City delivery and labor line.
Our crew works the approved move-in window and fine-tunes the room with you before doors open.
We strike and haul everything out inside the approved move-out window. The plants go back into rotation, not a dumpster.
Multi-day shows at Javits. Booth packages, mainstage backdrops, and lounges designed for a full exhibit run and the venue's real move-in rules.
All-hands, leadership meetings, launches, and holiday events from Hudson Yards and Midtown to Flatiron and the Financial District.
Activations, press days, fashion-week programs, launches, and pop-ups. You send the deck and layout; we translate them into a plant plan that fits the room.
Plants that photograph well and hold through weeks of showings. We work your building access and showing calendar, not a single event date.
We cover New York City's five boroughs: Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island. Your plants are sourced and staged in the Northeast, then delivered and installed by our crew inside the access plan approved for your venue.
Elsewhere inside New York City? Ask. We confirm venue access and delivery feasibility before we quote.
We work the Bay Area out of our own San Jose shop.
The things planners ask us most, so you can scope your New York event without waiting on an email.
Yes. We serve Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island. Most requests center on Manhattan, the Brooklyn waterfront, and Long Island City; for any venue, we confirm the loading plan, travel window, and scope before quoting. This page does not promise service outside New York City.
We scope events for the Javits Center; Hudson Yards and west-side rooms including The Shed and Convene at 30 Hudson Yards; Chelsea Piers, the Altman Building, and Metropolitan Pavilion; landmark Manhattan rooms and museums; downtown spaces from Brookfield Place to the Financial District; Brooklyn venues including Duggal Greenhouse, Brooklyn Museum, and Weylin; and Long Island City rooms including The Foundry and Museum of the Moving Image. Send the venue and date and we will confirm access before proposing.
Pricing is per plant, and one rental price covers your event for up to three days. There is a $3,000 minimum per event. Delivery and setup are billed separately based on the borough, building access, move-in window, and size of the install. Most New York City conference and activation builds land at $3,000–$12,000. Full-floor, multi-zone, and multi-city programs can scale beyond $100,000.
Four to six weeks is ideal, and larger builds want more. Dates tighten around major Javits runs, spring and fall conference calendars, fashion-week programs, and the holiday-event season. Rush requests can still be possible; send the date, venue, and approximate scope and we will tell you what is realistic.
Yes, subject to the rules for your event and the facility. Javits has exhibit halls, meeting rooms, the River Pavilion, and North Javits event spaces, and its policies reserve some work for facility employees. Send the exhibitor manual, booth number, appointed contractor, and move-in instructions; we will shape delivery and placement around the approved access plan instead of guessing.
They can, if the plant list matches the season and exposure. Summer heat, reflected sun, and waterfront wind need a different mix from a sheltered terrace; winter cold can rule out tender tropicals outdoors altogether. Tell us whether the space is covered, how long it runs, and when guests arrive. We will recommend interior placement, hardy seasonal material, or a protected outdoor plan as conditions require. We do not staff on-site watering during events.
Yes. Activations, press days, fashion-week programs, pop-ups, and launches in Manhattan lofts, Brooklyn warehouses, and Long Island City production rooms follow the same process: send the deck, floor plan, and access notes, and we will build a proposal around the real room. We rent and install plants and planters; scenic construction stays with your production team.
Delivery, installation and styling to your floor plan, a walk-through with you before doors open, then full teardown and pickup inside the approved strike window. You never lift, store, or return anything. The one thing we do not do is stay on site to water during your event, so we choose and prep plants for the full rental.
Yes. We are fully insured for every event and provide Certificates of Insurance on request. Send the venue's limits, additional-insured wording, and deadline with your inquiry. New York convention centers, museums, towers, and waterfront venues often have their own forms and access requirements, so earlier is better.
Tell us as soon as it happens. We stage material in the Northeast and plan backup stock for larger builds; replacement timing depends on the plant, borough, venue access, and whether the event is still inside an approved service window. We will give you the fastest realistic option.
A 50% deposit is due up front so we can source the exact plants and planters your event needs, and the remaining 50% is due one week before the event. Events fewer than 20 calendar days away are paid in full at booking, since sourcing and scheduling start immediately. We invoice — no payment is taken before you have seen and approved the proposal.
Yes. Stagers and listing agents are a real part of our business. The same per-plant pricing covers a statement tree in an entry or greenery through a whole listing. Send the address, building access rules, photo date, and showing calendar so we can quote the delivery and pickup correctly.

Renting is reusing. One ficus can appear at dozens of events over its lifetime, and nothing ends up in a dumpster when yours is over.
If you would like us on your New York City event, fill out the form or email us directly. We cover Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island, with venue access confirmed before we quote.
