Plant rentals for events · Seattle

Beautiful plants for your Seattle event. We handle the rest.

We rent plants for conferences, trade shows, launches, and corporate events across Seattle and the Eastside. Your plants are grown and staged in the Pacific Northwest, dropped off for your receiving team — so they arrive fresh and local, selected by the team whose work has framed events for Meta, Hyundai, KPMG, and Reuters.

Everett to Tacoma,

We cover Seattle, the Eastside, and the I-5 corridor from Everett to Tacoma. Your plants are grown and staged in the Pacific Northwest, so nothing travels further than it should before it reaches your venue.

Good to know

Seattle questions.

The things Seattle planners ask us most, so you can scope your event without waiting on an email.

Do you serve all of the Seattle area?

Yes. We cover Seattle end to end — downtown, South Lake Union, SoDo, and the neighborhoods — plus the Eastside from Bellevue through Redmond and Kirkland, north to Everett, and south to Tacoma. The wider Puget Sound is available by arrangement. Tell us your venue and we'll confirm same day.

Which Seattle venues do you deliver to?

The Seattle Convention Center's Arch and Summit buildings; the Lumen Field Event Center; Bell Harbor International Conference Center on Pier 66; Climate Pledge Arena, MoPOP, and Chihuly Garden and Glass at Seattle Center; the Museum of Flight; SoDo's warehouse venues and Belltown lofts; hotel ballrooms from the Hyatt Regency to the Fairmont Olympic; Meydenbauer Center in Bellevue; and corporate campuses in South Lake Union, Bellevue, and Redmond. Loading docks, freight elevators, and 5am load-ins are a normal part of our week.

How much does event plant rental cost in Seattle?

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 non-taxable charge. Longer rentals are quoted for the full period from drop-off through pickup. Your itemized proposal confirms plant selection, quantities, applicable plant-rental taxes, service responsibilities and the total before booking. Most Seattle conference and activation builds land at $3,000–$12,000. Full-floor, multi-zone, and multi-city programs can scale beyond $100,000.

How far ahead should I book a Seattle event?

Four to six weeks is ideal, and larger builds want more. Seattle gets tight around the spring and fall conference runs, the big convention weekends — Emerald City Comic Con in March, PAX West over Labor Day — and December's holiday-party season, so booked-out dates cluster there. We can often still take rush requests — ask and we'll tell you straight away what's possible for your date.

Can you work at the Seattle Convention Center?

Yes, in both buildings — Arch and Summit. We work to the show's move-in and move-out schedule and coordinate with your general contractor and any labor the venue requires. Send us your exhibitor manual and booth number with your request and we'll build the quote around the real dock times rather than guessing.

Our event is outdoors — will the plants hold up in Seattle weather?

Yes, if we choose for it. Seattle summers are genuinely dry, but nights run cool and the waterfront gets real wind — so outdoor events want sturdy material like olives and hardy evergreens in ballasted pots, while soft tropicals like ficus stay indoors or under cover. In the rain months we flip the logic: hardy ferns and evergreens can live outside happily while anything tender works the interior. Tell us whether the space is covered, exposed, or on the water and we'll spec accordingly. We don't staff on-site watering during events, so this choice matters and we make it up front.

Do you do brand activations, launches, and production work?

Yes, and they're some of our favorite jobs. Activations, press days, pop-ups, and launches in lofts, museums, and warehouse venues all work the same way: send the layout and the look, we send a proposal with photos of the actual plants. We're an events business, not a set-dressing house — we rent and drop off plants rather than sell them or build scenery.

What does the plant rental service include?

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, custom-planter assembly and daily on-site care are not included. We confirm the handoff and who will receive and place the plants before booking.

Are you insured? Can you provide a COI for my Seattle venue?

Yes. We're fully insured for every event and provide Certificates of Insurance on request. Send us your venue's insurance requirements — most Seattle convention and campus venues have specific limits and additional-insured language — and we'll handle the paperwork directly with them.

What if a plant gets damaged during my event?

We swap it. Our Pacific Northwest material is sourced and staged locally, so replacements can come from inside the region.

How do deposits and payment work?

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.

Do you rent plants for home staging in Seattle?

Yes. Stagers and listing agents are a real part of our business. The same per-plant pricing covers a single statement tree in an entry or greenery through a whole listing, and we work to your showing calendar rather than a single event date.
