Plant Maintenance
Not every green space is a garden. Plant Maintenance covers potted plants, balcony and terrace gardens and indoor plants in homes and offices, with a coordinated plant care professional looking after each plant's individual needs.
- Available across Chennai
- Can be arranged remotely
About this service
Container plants depend entirely on the care they receive. Soil in pots dries out far faster than garden beds, especially on sunny Chennai balconies and terraces, and drainage holes can block during the monsoon, leaving roots sitting in water. Indoor plants face different challenges, such as low light, air-conditioned rooms and overwatering. Plant Maintenance addresses these issues plant by plant rather than bed by bed.
On scheduled visits, the plant care professional we coordinate checks soil moisture, waters appropriately, removes dead leaves, trims leggy growth, wipes dust from foliage on indoor plants and looks for pests such as mealybugs, aphids and scale. Plants that have outgrown their containers can be repotted with fresh potting mix, and tired soil can be refreshed with compost. Suggestions for moving plants to better light are also shared where helpful.
This service suits apartment owners with balcony gardens, offices and retail spaces with decorative plants, and owners of homes where indoor greenery forms part of the interior. For owners who travel or live abroad, Flourrish arranges visits so that plants are not left without water for long periods and shares updates on their condition. Where a plant is not suited to its spot, for instance a shade-loving plant on a west-facing balcony, we suggest a better position or alternative.
