HOLIDAY GREEN
Green Centrale promotes greener lifestyle by making plants available online to emerging gardening enthusiasts
Gardening, whether in an urban or rural setting, is the way to go nowadays. There is indeed no harm in flexing that green thumb. With community quarantine paving the way for many to discover new hobbies and interests, a lot of people have resorted to becoming “plant parents.”
Regardless of one’s motivations behind this decision, it is undeniable that this shift to a greener lifestyle is one positive effect from the pandemic. Given the increasing demand for plant shops, Green Centrale, a plant retail shop that started as an online shop, took this opportunity and found a way for more people to be touched by its advocacy to bring healthy and beautiful plants from its humble plant nursery in Sta. Rosa into more people’s homes.
Green Centrale is formed under Greenscapes Plus Philippines Inc., an established landscaping company incorporated in 2009. It conceptualizes, designs, and implements landscaping projects, provides technical support in landscaping and tree care management. In 2015, Greenscapes was able to secure the business of country’s leading real estate developer Vista Land and its various companies namely Brittany, CrownAsia, Camella, Lumina, and its condominium brands, Vista Residences and COHO. It is also the landscape developer of the Villar Group’s premium commercial centers—Vista Malls, Evia Lifestyle Center in Vista Alabang, and NOMO–A Vista Lifestyle Center in Bacoor City.
Greenscapes is made up of professional horticulturists, foresters, and skilled workers equipped with adequate knowledge of technology in tree care and landscaping operations. Green Centrale’s affiliation with the company ensures that everything Green Centrale offers are cultivated responsibly by professionals that are experts in their field.
Going beyond just selling plants, Green Centrale advocates for the proper knowledge and care of plants among their clients. It shares plant care tips regularly on its social media accounts to help guide customers in their journey toward becoming successful plant parents. Together, Green Centrale and Greenscapes work toward improving environmental awareness, education, and stewardship among new plant parents.
The wide variety of plants include indoor plants, outdoor plants, air plants, and hanging plants. Aside from these plants, they also offer various products related to gardening and plant care such as plant racks and a variety of pots, which include decorative pots handpainted by their in-house artists. They also put together gift baskets that are meticulously curated to ensure that every aspiring plant parent is sufficiently provided with their plant care needs, especially in this pandemic.
