Why use ferns as interior office plants Boston, MA.


1. Ferns add a different kind of green texture to your interior office plant design. This reception desk arrangement softens your hard granite or stone desk surfaces for your Waltham, Ma interiorscapes.


Ferns (Pteridophyta)

2. A fern is any one of a group of about 12,000 species of plants. Unlike mosses, they have xylem and phloem (making them vascular plants). They have stems, leaves, and roots like other vascular plants. Ferns do not have either seeds or flowers (they reproduce via spores).

3. Stems: Most often an underground creeping rhizome, but sometimes an above-ground creeping stolon (e.g., Polypodiaceae), or an above-ground erect semi-woody trunk.

4. Leaf: The green, photosynthetic part of the plant. In ferns, it is often referred to as a frond, but this is because of the historical division between people who study ferns and people who study seed plants, rather than because of differences in structure. New leaves typically expand by the unrolling of a tight spiral called a crozier or fiddlehead. This uncurling of the leaf is termed circinate vernation.

5. Roots: The underground non-photosynthetic structures that take up water and nutrients from soil. They are always fibrous and are structurally very similar to the roots of seed plants.

6. The three ferns comprising the above arrangement have differing leaf surfaces adding interest to this reception arrangement in downtown Boston, MA.

Plantscape Designs Inc. applys ferns in many of our downtown Boston, MA officescapes.

Why use Rhapis palms( lady palms) in your office interiors?


1. The Lady Palm is one of the more expensive tropical plants and it takes many years to reach a 6-foot height, but the wait and expense is well worth it in your Boston plants office environment.

2. The elegant, dark green fronds with the serrated tips are born on wirey stems that emerge from a scruffy trunk that looks like it is partially wrapped in loose burlap. Raphis palms will also sprout new growth from its thickened, underground roots.

3. TEMPERATURE: This plant will grow in almost any temperature above 55° and below 95°. Especially in your Burlington Ma office plant location.

4. WATER: This is one of the easiest plants to care for. Water when top of soil feels dry. Do not allow to completely dry out as this will cause the plant to fail.

5. LIGHT: This plant does well in low light situations. Place in a fairly well-lit location. Any location indoors with light bright enough to read in will do.
