We have enjoyed the lovely blooming plants of the summer, but now there are sure signs that the fall/winter season is approaching.  It is time for an exciting new look for your plant containers.   We can picture them filled with brilliant green, gold, red and orange!

 

You may be thinking:
  • Should we retire the outdated weather worn plant containers and opt for a new style and yes, a new color?
  • What are the best styles and plants to make our office entrance inviting?
  • What size containers do we need?
  • What plants will work in this particular space and fit the height requirements?
  • How much maintenance will the plants require?
  • Will the recommended plant material withstand wind & cold?

Relax! Answers are ready for you from the experts at Buckingham Greenery!

Exterior Plantings: Enhance your entrances, terraces and courtyards with colorful Fall flowers and foliage to welcome your visitors and guests. Now is the time for planting while the soil is still warm and a good root system can be established.Some flowering plant suggestions for autumn and winter containers are: Winter-flowering pansies, chrysanthemums, ornamental cabbage and kale and Winter heather.

croton Interior Plantings: Bring Fall color inside your building with the gorgeous fall colors of the croton plant (Codiaeum variegatum 'Norma'). Crotons can be added as "seasonal  color" around your existing green plants or stand alone in a container all to themselves to create a beautiful Fall display.


Some more ideas from the professionals:

Use a Dwarf Compacta red berry producing shrub as a center piece
Surround the holly with "Delta pure red pansies"
(you can light up your holly for the holiday's)

butterscotch For a brighter color centerpiece:
Use a "Butterscotch Euonymus". Bright yellow and green.
This looks soft and lovely surrounded by winter hardy "Algerian Ivy"

 

We are looking forward to helping you have a "GREAT GREEN FALL"

Franklin Federal Holiday Testimonial

As usual, everything is beautiful again this year. We think so highly of the quality of work that Buckingham Greenery does. Every year we say we think that particular year is our favorite. The [Christmas] decorations exceed our expectations, which is hard to do because throughout the years you all have set a very high standard for yourselves to top! The installers were neat, professional and moved throughout the building quickly and did what they needed to do. At this point, we couldn't think of having anyone else do our decorations as we are so pleased. I would rate you all a 9 – only because if we gave you a 10 there wouldn't be any leeway for improvement (but the margin for improvement is very small).
