Do something beautiful...
Call Tropical Interiors today at 503.579.3475!

The first impression you want people to have about your office, shop or facility is, "That's beautiful!"

The environment you provide for employees and clients sets their moods and influences their impressions of your business or facility. Live plants warm up a space like nothing else can. However, simply putting a plant in a corner of the room won't work by itself.

With 25 years experience, Tropical Interiors understands that for plants to truly bring a space to life involves much more than knowing where a container plant will fit.

  • The shapes, sizes, textures and colors of the plants you select enhance and compliment your space's colors and other décor. 
  • The plant's "micro-environment" (think of it as personal space for a plant) needs to be considered. Lighting, drafts, traffic and other elements need to drive the selection of plants as these aspects will affect its health and vitality.
  • Scale needs to be considered. A plant that's too large can overwhelm a space, while one that is too small will not have the desired impact.
  • Balance is vital to creating a beautiful setting and ensures the health of your plants by providing proper placement and ease of maintenance.
  • After placement, plants need regular maintenance, including proper watering, dusting and cleaning, pruning, and rotation to continue to add beauty to your space.
  • Plant physiology needs to be monitored to manage diseases, pests and ensure healthy soil conditions.
  • Finally, container selection will ensure that your interior design won't be detracted from.

Getting all these things right not only takes time that you likely don't have, but it requires the uncommon combination of a Master Gardener's trained eye, skilled hand, design sensibility and depth of knowledge of the plant world. It requires the type of experience and skill that you'll only find with a partner like Tropical Interiors.
