We often get asked why customers should choose to have a professional indoor plant maintenance service from Ambius. Surely just buying their own plants, watering and caring for them themselves is easier – and cheaper?
So to answer that question, I put together the top 5 reasons I believe you should allow the professionals at Ambius to look after your indoor plants:
1. We understand the light-level needs of indoor plants (saving you money)
Plants need light in order to be able to grow and flourish. Whilst plants can be acclimatised for indoors, no plants are “naturally” indoor plants, and they do still require some light. When plants don’t get enough light, they don’t produce chlorophyll (the green pigment in plants). They can turn pale green to yellow to white. Plant stems become ‘leggy’ – meaning stems become long and thin, and appear to be reaching toward the source of light.
Ambius has a range of plants suited to high, medium, and low-light levels. Our expert consultants are equipped with light meters in order to accurately assess your workplace’s light levels during their survey of your premises.
Wherever possible we’ll suggest living plants because of the health benefits associated with living plants in buildings. For those areas which are just too dark to support living plants, we can offer a range of silk, ‘replica’ plants.
By choosing a professional plant maintenance service, you can rest assured that you’ll be given the best plants for the available light levels in your building, and you’ll always have plants that look their best.
2. Professionally maintained plants live longer (saving you money)
Our technicians understand the optimal watering and feeding cycles for indoor plants, which means that our plants live longer and are healthier than plants maintained by your building manager (for example).
And that means you avoid the cost of having to replace plants that don’t thrive. If we don’t believe a plant will thrive, even with our specialised care, we’ll simply replace it with a healthy alternative.
By putting the beauty of your indoor landscape into the hands of our specialists, you can devote your time and energy to all the other things you have to worry about. Leave the care and maintenance of your indoor plants to us.
3. Plants remain disease-free (saving you money)
Our horticultural experts will return again and again, to water, clean, dust, prune, feed, and keep your corporate plants healthy and lush. This includes routine pest control for the pests commonly associated with indoor plants, such as aphids, mealybug, and fungus gnats.
And disease-free plants live longer, which means no associated cost for you in having to replace them if they do become diseased. (Diseased plants are fairly common in the office – especially when colleagues routinely overwater or tip the remains of tea and coffee in the pots).
4. Ensuring the health & safety of your workplace
Our staff are trained on all aspects of SHE. They know how to water plants safely, how to replace plants efficiently, and how to do all of this safely around your employees and visitors. Which means that your workplace can continue to maintain the highest levels of safety.
All our technicians are regularly audited to monitor and improve standards and skill levels, and our customer programmes include scheduled and unscheduled audits of our technicians’ work.
5. Plants are replaced free of charge at the end of their life cycle* (saving you money!)
If your pants – for some reason – fail to thrive, or they’re at the end of their indoor life cycle, we’ll replace them with fresh, new ones.
