The Hidden Cost of Static Décor (Problem)

While 78% of customers say interior aesthetics influence their perception of a business1, traditional live plants often create more problems than they solve. Retailers face recurring expenses from plant maintenance ($200-$800 monthly for commercial spaces2), seasonal die-offs disrupting décor themes, and limited design flexibility in high-traffic areas.

Why "Good Enough" Design Is Costing You Opportunities (Agitate)

Static greenery arrangements silently sabotage your business by:

  1. Blending into the background instead of creating Instagram-worthy focal points
  2. Limiting seasonal rebranding capabilities due to plant growth patterns
  3. Forcing compromise between air quality and aesthetic vision in windowless spaces
  4. Wasting valuable floor space with predictable pot-and-stand arrangements
