Crabapple Floriculture/Seasonal Color Managers work with a talented group of professionals in the Enhancements Department to create colorful and healthy flower beds for Crabapple clients. They meets with clients, designs, purchases, installs and coordinates the maintenance schedules of Crabapple’s seasonal color beds and containers to insure their appeal, health, vigor and year-round beauty.
When longtime client the Hilton Garden Inn in Cartersville, Georgia approached the Enhancements Department for an interior plan to augment their attractive entrance and grounds, she drew on her seasonal color design experience to create a striking interior landscape for the Lobby of the Inn substituting tropicals. “When Hilton reached out to Crabapple’s Enhancement Department for assistance, I was thrilled to take on the project,” she noted.
CrabappleLandscapExperts advise commercial and residential managers and HOAs that interior plantscaping:
- Dramatically welcomes guests and residents
- Reinforces the “Garden Inn” theme of the Hilton
- Adds to a feeling of well-being
- Reduces stress indoors (and out)
- Improves air quality by increasing oxygen and humidity to the Lobby air
- Decreases carbon dioxide and dust motes
- Reduces background noise
Planting Area
The containers were purchase ahead of time by the Hilton Garden Inn. The largest containers stand about four feet tall with a planting area of five square feet.
Inventory of Site Conditions
Crabapple’s inventory of site conditions in the Hotel Lobby revealed the perfect lighting for interior landscaping. Bright indirect natural light from many windows is supplemented with soft light from many electrical fixtures. These conditions match light requirements for a large number of interior plants in the tropical palette. Most interior plants we use come from the tropical rain forest where the days are bright but get very little direct sunlight.
LandscapEXPERTS Expertise
Drawing on seasonal color design experience, the interior team sourced the tropical plant material, then combined foliage colors, fine and bold textures, varying heights, tropical blooms, and growth patterns in tropical plants to produce a luxurious, easily-maintained tropical bower welcoming Hotel guests.
