Plants for restaurant tables can be that finishing touch that really completes the customer experience. Whether you prefer foliage over flowers, a considered table display can complete the branding you’ve worked hard to establish.

Things to consider when choosing a plant include:

• Size of the plant. You don’t want the display to interfere with your guests being able to see each other. Also, a larger display takes up valuable table space.
• Cost is an important factor for plants or flowers for restaurant tables because of the number required, especially for medium or larger sized establishments.
• Maintenance is another cost. Using fresh flowers quickly adds up either in the cost of cut blooms or the labour required for watering and keeping the plants looking healthy.
• Repeatability is an important factor for controlling the customer experience at every table in your restaurant. Seating guests at a table with a drooping plant or a flower that is passed it’s best does not make that guest feel valued.

If you are looking for plants to add character to your restaurant tables but that are also cost-effective, artificial plants are an option worth exploring. Here is a hand-picked list of suggestions from the Floresy product range.
