Question 1

What's actually included in the monthly lease?

Accepted Answer

Everything: design consultation, plants, premium planters, installation, and all ongoing care — watering, pruning, feeding, cleaning, pest monitoring — plus guaranteed replacement of any plant that declines. One predictable monthly rate, nothing to buy, nothing to manage.

Question 2

If we buy outright, what do we pay monthly?

Accepted Answer

You pay once for the design, plants, containers, and installation, then only the monthly care plan — watering, pruning, feeding, and monitoring. Care programs start at $500 per month. Replacement guarantee applies to plants we selected and installed.

Question 3

Which is better for taxes — leasing or buying?

Accepted Answer

Most clients treat the all-in lease as a straightforward operating expense, while purchased plants and planters are typically capital assets. Every situation differs — your CPA should make the call. We price both paths in every proposal so the comparison is on paper.

Question 4

What's the minimum engagement?

Accepted Answer

Care programs start at $500 per month — roughly $250 per service visit — the level of care a properly planted office genuinely needs. Typical engagements run $500–$2,000+ per month depending on square footage and plant count.

Question 5

Can we start with maintenance of plants we already own?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We'll walk your space, assess your existing collection, and quote a monthly care program. One honest note: our replacement guarantee covers plants we've selected and installed, so struggling or wrong-for-the-light plants will come with swap recommendations.
