A more confident choice

Choose the specimen, not just the variety

Two plants with the same name can feel very different in a space. Height, fullness, leaf character and pot size all affect the result. Ask for a current photo and approximate measurements so you can judge the actual plant before making the trip.

From interest to the right plant

A simple way to choose.

1. Message the plant name. Use the WhatsApp button so there is no ambiguity about the variety.
2. Confirm the exact specimen. Ask for current photos, approximate size and price.
3. Match it to the space. If placement matters, send a photo and rough dimensions of the intended area.
4. Visit or agree the next step. Once the specimen is confirmed, you can visit with much less uncertainty.

Your questions

Before you visit.

Is Heliconia Beef Steak always available?

Live stock changes. Ask for the current specimen before travelling for a specific size or form.

Can I confirm the price before visiting?

Yes. Request the current specimen, approximate size and current price on WhatsApp.

Can you help me decide whether it suits my space?

Send a clear photo, approximate dimensions and the available light. That makes the recommendation more useful than choosing from a product image alone.
