introducing hyGro

hyGro plants are grown in water rather than soil.This concept offers a clean and attractive method of planting, in which porous clay granules take the place of conventional soil, providing you with more vibrant, healthier plants through controlled watering and fertilisation.

R

cares for the environment…….

our unique, peat-free planting system - meeting the environmental issues of today.

• Preserves the valuable and attractive peatlands, which absorb carbon dioxide from the air. • Produces healthy plants that contribute positively to the atmosphere. • Oxygen can reach right down to the roots, producing a healthier, stronger plant which, in turn, enhances the environment. • Ideal solution for workspaces with a peat-free environment policy. • Should any displays get contaminated, water is easily drawn out and replaced without re-planting. • Healthier plants that improve working conditions. • Eliminates sinking of surface dressing. • Clean and hygienic with no soil mess or soil-born pests. • Lightweight planting makes plants easy and cleaner to relocate or replace. • Highly efficient maintenance causes minimal disruption to you. …..and enhances your business

“our building management would not allow access to the front of the building for deliveries. this meant that your team had to come up through the basement which made it a much longer job for them but they did not complain and got on with the job very professionally and, most importantly, in good humour!”

answering the environmental issue

This unique planting system offers what could be described as the most beautiful interior and exterior wall finish. Comprising hand planted modules holding a huge variety of plant species, this natural phenomenon will turn an urban eyesore into a rural beauty.

Each display is fitted with an Emitter Irrigation System for ensuring the most efficient coverage of water for each module. Full maintenance programmes are available and recommended for this product, which can be applied to a vast range of different situations, from a low wall to the entire vertical facade of a building.

dedication is, without doubt, key to maintaining exterior planting schemes. merged with professional knowledge of horticultural application and climatic conditions, our commitment to hard work stands paramount for creating and retaining quality displays.

The first sight of your building says a lot about you. We work increasingly with architects to enhance entrances, courtyards and gardens. Using a wide range of schemes from elegant topiary to vibrant window boxes or minimal hedging, exterior planting is essential in creating that powerful first impression.

“planteria met and exceeded the demanding level of our corporate standard with quality planting solutions that blended perfectly with our location and ethos.”

page n o 33

Plants for outdoor use are carefully selected according to climatic conditions and are then regularly maintained to a professional standard. Flowering displays are changed with the seasons to provide colour throughout the year, while more permanent features are frequently pruned to retain their pristine appearance.

“the planting scheme looks lovely and makes a huge, positive impact on the courtyard. they did a fantastic job, were very efficient and left the whole area very neat and tidy.”

“nothing brightens the confines of a space, however large or small, with such uplifting spirit like fresh flowers do.”
