Send us your dates, your layout if you have one, and the look you're going for. A rough sketch or a few inspiration photos are plenty.
We send one itemized proposal with plant photos, any floral or planter-box details, suggested placements and clear pricing.
We drop off your plants and any floral arrangements at the agreed receiving point. Your team or venue handles movement inside the building and placement.
Your team returns rental items to the agreed collection point. We pick them up in the confirmed window. Your proposal identifies what to keep and what to return.
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.
Company holiday parties, employee celebrations and client dinners. Bring warmth to the room with live plants, then add flowers for the tables and bar.
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 dropped off for your receiving team inside the access plan approved for your venue.
Elsewhere inside New York City? Ask. We confirm venue access and delivery feasibility before we quote.
The things planners ask us most, so you can scope your New York event without waiting on an email.
Yes. We can include bud vases, centerpieces and bar arrangements in your plant-rental proposal. Flowers are quoted for your quantities, palette and date. The $3,000 plant-rental minimum still applies, plus the one-time $500 delivery charge. We don’t offer flower-only orders. Your team handles placement.
Yes. We rent live plants for company holiday parties, office celebrations, employee appreciation events and corporate dinners. Think welcoming entrances, greenery around the bar and relaxed lounge areas. Share your date, venue and preferred look so we can confirm the plant selection, drop-off and pickup. Your team handles placement. See our corporate holiday party case study for a real example.
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.
Plant rental starts at a $3,000 minimum per event. Pricing is per plant for your agreed rental duration, with planters included. Delivery is a separate one-time $500 charge. Longer rentals are quoted for the full period from drop-off through pickup. Your itemized proposal confirms plant selection, quantities, service responsibilities and the total before booking. 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 drop off plants with their agreed planters; placement and scenic construction stay with your production team.
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. Setup, installation, on-site planter-box assembly and daily on-site care are not included. We confirm the handoff and who will receive and place the plants before booking.
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.
Full payment is due upon receipt of your invoice. Your approved proposal and invoice set out the payment terms and any agreed event-specific exceptions.
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 confirm the delivery and pickup plan.
Yes. Custom wooden planter boxes are made to order and yours to keep, with or without plant rentals. Standard rental planters remain included with your plants; custom boxes are purchased separately. Explore custom planter boxes →
Purchased boxes belong to you. Your team handles placement and arranges their removal after the event. We collect the rental plants and rental planters at the agreed collection point.

Bring the room to life without buying plants you will need to care for afterward. We arrange collection when your event wraps up.
