Tara Soloway , founder of plant care and design business Plantd Life, puts the finishing touches on a client’s indoor garden.in the sales of indoor and outdoor potted plants rising 2.4 per cent over the previous year to $1.2-billion in 2023. The reasons for the uptick are myriad, but the happy-making properties of plant ownership are likely the biggest motivator of why we’re so drawn to them. Studies have shown having plants can reduce stress and even lower blood pressure.
Now, Soloway works with clients, both private and commercial, to bring the beauty of the outdoors inside. Plantd Life’s services include maintenance, like watering and repotting clients’ plants, and hosting events such as “Plant Therapy,” which involves a group of folks pruning plants into Bonsai shapes, for example.
Diamond notes that he grew up in the area in a home that had a cactus feature in its entryway; his home office’s design was conceived in homage to that detail. “I’m a serial entrepreneur and innovator,” he says of what value the interior desert scene – visually punctuated by slim, tall Peruvian apple cactuses – affords him. “I get an incredible return out of being inspired and feeling good. And plants make me feel good.
He and the SLA team took this to heart with the creation of the agency’s impressive Place Ville Marie project, the Sid Lee Biosquare, which was completed in 2022. “We incorporated elements such as bridges and mezzanines to evoke a sense of adventure, while the extensive use of greenery and natural materials like wood and stone creates visual and sensory connections to nature,” Pelland says.
