Your space has been designed. Now make it unforgettable.

Plants Are History offers private botanical design consultations for luxury residences, commercial spaces, hospitality, and professional design projects.

We help interior designers, real estate professionals, business owners, and homeowners thoughtfully integrate living elements into their spaces—considering architecture, scale, light, materials, and the overall experience.

This isn’t about simply choosing a plant.

It’s about creating an environment that feels intentional, elevated, and memorable.

From concept to installation, we bring the expertise, sourcing, and design direction to make botanical elements feel like an essential part of the space.

Now booking a limited number of consultations for next week.

We service Danville, Napa, San Francisco and the East Bay.

First, the detail.

Then, the whole.

A mature Schefflera with the kind of movement and character that makes a specimen worth building a design around. Then paired with an old-world Greek clay pot for contrast, weight, and texture.

We look at botanical design the same way we look at interiors: through proportion, material, scale, and composition.

Our role isn’t simply to find a beautiful plant.

It’s to find the right one, pair it with the right vessel, and turn the combination into something worth living with.

Before it becomes part of a finished botanical installation, every vessel gets the attention it deserves.

This Indonesian limestone planter is being carefully cleaned and prepared by hand—dusting away the surface so its natural texture, character, and history can come forward.

The details matter. 🌿

We create botanical moments that transform a space.

From selecting the right living elements to thoughtfully composing them with natural materials, every piece is designed to feel intentional, distinctive, and connected to its surroundings.

Here, a natural travertine formation becomes the foundation for a living sculpture of air plants, an example of how botanical design can turn unexpected materials into memorable experiences.

Botanical design, thoughtfully composed.

Some plants make an entrance. 🌿

A variegated peace lily, paired with Indonesian limestone—living texture, natural character, and a vessel that feels as timeless as the plant itself.

A statement piece designed to be experienced from every angle.

A blank canvas, waiting to become part of the story.

The most memorable spaces aren’t simply filled, they’re thoughtfully composed.

From the vessel to the living specimen, every element is chosen with intention to create something that feels timeless, natural, and distinctly yours.

Some plants simply stop you.

The Aglaonema Silver Bay, paired with the raw elegance of Indonesian limestone.

A one-of-a-kind piece where living form, natural material, and timeless design come together.

Captivating by nature. Curated with intention.

There’s something mesmerizing about standing next to a plant like this. 🌿

The scale, the movement, the character. It’s a reminder that plants can completely transform the way a space feels.

At Plants Are History, we work with clients and designers to source, style, and place extraordinary living specimens that bring depth, presence, and a sense of nature into thoughtfully designed spaces.

This specimen is paired with an Indonesian limestone vessel, creating a balance between organic form and natural architecture.
