Happy Birthday to BXP Living Wall at the Prudential Center🌿
Five years ago today, our team strapped into the scissor lift and sent themselves up along with thousands of little plants.
This Living wall is one of our most iconic. Our favorite part about this wall is that it's in a public space that anyone can enjoy💚🌱

We can't stress enough that incorporating Biophilic design into your workspace is essential to your well-being! Even a couple of plants in this lab office really go a long way with brightening up the space.
Studies show that interacting with nature provides an increase in parasympathetic activity, resulting in reduced sympathetic activity. This in turn leads to decreased stress and irritability, and increased levels of concentration.
The great thing about using plants as a way to visually soften a work space, is that they provide health benefits too, such as air purification!

Never too late to honor and remember the great Martin Luther King Jr. With tomorrows inauguration approaching quickly let’s all remember the Love like MLK would want. #remeberingmlk #loveconquersall
We wonder what this week will unfurl 💫
Love seeing new growth on a challenging plant like an Australian Tree Fern. This humidity loving plant is known for being a slow grower, but boy does it get big! Did you know that this fern can grow up to 40’ tall in the wild?!

It’s not all about just pruning, watering and fertilizing. Clean those leaves too!🌿
Dust collection on leaves can hinder photosynthesis. Make sure you give your plants a nice misting everyone once in a while, especially those large leafed plants like Fiddle Leaf Figs, and Monstera. They can collect dust easier than the smaller leaved ones. Give it a little spritz with an all-natural plant cleaning solution and wipe with a gentle cloth.
Our favorite aromatherapy plant care method is adding a couple drops of Rosemary essential oil and a dropper full of peppermint Castile soap to a large spray bottle filled with water. The rosemary oil gets rid of pests and is a preventative for any future infestations. Bonus- it smells so good it lifts your mood at the same time! Good for your plants- Good for you!
Did you know we sell this Aroma-at-Home kit on our plant truck @transplantedboston? Shoot us a DM and we’ll hook you up!

WOW✨ Thank you to all of our clients, partners, and teammates who made this unusual holiday season one for the books🎄
Every year, we push the limits of holiday magic. We continue to have more fun doing it every year. The fact that we have to pack it all away a month later makes it all the more precious and special.
As we put away the last of the decorations this week, lets reminisce on some of our favorites from this year..

Use the unique qualities of plants to make your planting beds as dynamic as possible🌱🌿🪴
Notice how we layered a hand full of plants to create contrast in both texture and color? The Pothos (Epipremnum aureum) acts like a ground cover, setting the stage for the height given by the Dracaena 'Limelight', the Dracaena really pops against the deep greens of the Monstera deliciosa behind that!

Everyone loves going downstairs to get their packages- retrieving your packages is even more special when you're surrounded by plants🌿
The easy jades, haworthia and sansevieria seen in this room do great in low light conditions, and require minimal care. Perfect for that room that needs some oomph✨

Can't we keep the decorations up for the whole season? We don't think anyone would mind!
As we transition back into plant content, let's take a moment to enjoy the subtle parts of holiday décor- the glitter, the ornaments and the hints of magic ✨

You've heard it from us before, but WE LOVE THE BROOKVIEW HOUSE💚 They do such an amazing job helping women and their families, and their success rate is off the charts!
Every year we participate in the "Giving Tree”. Our team at Cityscapes pitches in to help the families who live at the @_brookview_house homes by purchasing items on the kids wish list. This year, due to the pandemic, we gave out some gift cards.
The act of giving in itself is so worth any amount of time or money you spend. When you get photos sent to you like this, it's extra, extra rewarding!

What’s your favorite winter holiday plant? While we love blooms like poinsettia and amaryllis, we also have a soft spot for evergreen-resembling plants like lemon cypress.
Get out there and enjoy the poinsettia blooms while their still going strong🌺

Testimonials
The best things about working at Cityscapes is the teamwork I experience daily, the relationships I have developed, and the fact that Cityscapes really cares about their employees. We also create an atmosphere together to improve our clients lives and our mission is to inspire and innovate with beautifully designed greenery.
Managing one of Boston’s more iconic buildings is no small feat. The responsibility of up-keeping greenery that is as beautiful as the architecture around us is huge. Having Cityscapes come and design our planting beds and maintain our greenery inside and out, has made my life a breeze. I know I can count on them to perform up to my standards, while keeping everything fresh and innovative.
