If you need help in determining the type, size and position of your indoor plants you may want to give Leaf it at Home a whirl.
They offer ‘Interior landscaping’ which creates ambience and atmosphere in the home through plants. Their flexible design service means solutions within virtually any budget can be sought. An initial consultation with a Leaf it at Home designer, determines all the plants and pots that might be required. The plants can then be maintained on a weekly basis as part of an ongoing programme.
Leaf-it-at-home Design Consultant Andrew Davidson says;
“Long gone are the days of scrappy looking plants shoved in the corner of a room, the trend is shifting towards plants being the main focus of any well-designed interior. Shapes, colours and sizes of plants have become more and more significant as stylish features.”
