permanent indoor plant hire.

The flagship arrangement — the plants live in your space for the long haul, but you don't own them and you don't worry about them. We design the look, deliver and install, then come back every week or fortnight to keep everything looking pristine. And if a plant ever isn't up to standard, we replace it free of charge — no questions, no extra invoice.

how a hire works

four steps from brief to thriving.

From the first site walk to the install going in, most permanent hire jobs run through this sequence. Bigger installs take longer; small ones are quicker.

step 01

site walk

We walk the space with you — check light, access, climate control and existing furniture. Listen to the brief. Take photos.

step 02

concept & quote

You receive a concept design with plant and planter selections, a fixed monthly invoice, and a recommended install date.

step 03

delivery & install

On the agreed date, our crew arrives with plants and planters ready to go. In and out clean, with a walk-through at the end.

step 04

ongoing care

Weekly or fortnightly visits from your dedicated plantscape technician. Quarterly portfolio review with the account manager.
