Peat Free Plants

19th January 2015

One of our Nottingham based customers recently asked if we could supply environmentally friendly peat free plant displays for their offices. The organisation has a 'Green Impact Scheme' which 'challenges departments to implement a number of easy practical actions to help the environment'.

We were of course happy to oblige!

Environmentally Friendly Plants

Hydroculture Plants use clay granules instead of soil as a growing medium. The plant displays cost a little more than soil based plants, but the plants grow stronger and healthier and help preserve the Earth's valuable peatlands.
