| The large
Reception atrium area was enhanced with two
2.75m Ficus Columnar trees planted into circular
brushed stainless steel containers, which were
supplied on wheels so that the displays could be
easily moved. All the plants used were “Hydro
culture” plants which are grown using expanded
clay granules known as hydro pebbles, which is
an alternative to using a peat based growing
medium. As well as adding
the finishing green touch to the building, the
plants also give numerous
health benefits
to the staff, such as reduction of illness,
stress and absenteeism and increased
productivity.
