When planning our office move we knew it was key to listen to what our employees wanted from the new space and one thing kept coming up, “plants, plants, plants!” “and not those fake ones!”. As an energy consultancy with a vision to deliver a responsible energy future we knew we wanted to find a supplier that was local and had an ethos that aligned with ours and we found that with Highland Moss! I had met Craig and Pam at a winter market the previous year and knew they offered a wide range of products, from the beautiful moss that Craig speaks so passionately about, to all of their fantastic plants Pam so lovingly tends to.

Initially Pam and Craig came to view our office to see the areas we wanted to add greenery to and advise on the lighting levels and what type of plants would thrive in each space. As a bit of a novice when it comes to plants, we absolutely took their direction on this and really valued their expertise! We also paid a visit to their shop on Constitution Street, which is an absolute haven for any plant lover. It was great to see the plants that we’d been discussing and start to visualise how it would all come together. Once we’d received our order, they put together a fantastic portfolio of our plants with care guidelines and best locations for each plant.

With employee wellbeing at the forefront of our minds we are so glad that adding plants to our office really helped to create a space that felt more homely and welcoming, ultimately softening the space making it warm and inviting. We have a multipurpose wellbeing room, which despite not having any natural light, we were able to add plants to thanks to a Grow Light provided by Highland Moss. It not only helps our plants thrive but also those who use the space! We have a dedicated team of green fingered employees who care for our plants and 6 months on this seems to be working well. Thank you, Highland Moss, for all of your guidance and support!
