What we do
Design. Installation. Procurement. Care.
One considered approach, from the first idea to an established living space.
Plant Care & Maintenance
TruVine Biophilic Plant Care & Service
stewardship & sustainability
TruVine provides professional plant care and maintenance for hotels, restaurants, offices, residences, and hospitality environments.
With decades of horticultural experience, TruVine brings knowledge and personal attention to every property we care for.
Biophilic design does not end when the installation is complete. Living environments require experienced, thoughtful care.
Our approach is based on hand watering, proper water management, plant health, presentation, and stewardship. Every plant is individually observed and cared for according to its specific needs, light conditions, and environment.
Plants are not manufactured - they are grown. Each one is unique and changes over time. Our role is to maintain the original design intent while allowing the living material to naturally evolve.
Proper Watering
Proper watering is the foundation of healthy, long-lasting plants and sustainability. Each plant is evaluated individually based on species, light, temperature, soil, and moisture level. We water by need - not by schedule.
Trimming & Pruning
Plants are constantly growing and shedding. We remove declining growth, trim damaged foliage, and prune when needed to maintain each plant's natural shape and scale.
Fertilizing
We provide nutrients as needed to support strong roots, healthy foliage, and long-term plant vitality.
Plant Health Awareness
Plants are inspected regularly for signs of pests or stress.
Replacements
Rejuvenate and seasonal rotation when needed.
Design + Installation
Design + Installation
We add value by introducing the living layer to great design.
We design for what people see - and how they feel.
With decades of horticultural experience, TruVine brings a trained eye to the relationship between plants, pottery, proportion, texture, color, and placement. Every recommendation is considered as part of the complete environment - not as an isolated decorative element.
Our design process begins with understanding the space - its architecture, interiors, light, scale, flow, atmosphere, and the experience the client wants to create. We design living elements to complement the original vision and become a natural, intentional part of the environment.
Sustainability is paramount in every project we undertake. Plant selection, water requirements, longevity, local conditions, durability, maintenance needs, and responsible sourcing are considered throughout the process. The goal is to create living environments that thrive over time while reducing unnecessary replacement and waste.
We collaborate with owners, architects, interior designers, hospitality groups, and project teams to create spaces that feel refined, welcoming, and alive - bringing a sense of arrival, botanical rhythm, and connection to nature.
Whenever possible, our work begins on site. Experiencing the space firsthand allows us to understand sightlines, scale, light, materials, and details that cannot always be fully understood through drawings or photographs. When needed, we also provide virtual design services.
Our design and installation services may include plant and pottery selection, placement concepts, scale and proportion, material and color direction, interior and exterior planting plans, sourcing, and coordination with project and installation teams.
It is the combination of experience, observation, creativity, awareness, environmental responsibility, and attention to detail that allows us to know not only what should be added - but when simplicity creates the strongest result.
Thoughtfully designed. Sustainable. Intentional.
Our role is to understand the space, protect the original design intent, and introduce nature in a way that feels natural, curated, and enduring.
Procurement
Plant + Pottery Procurement
Experience is knowing what to choose - and what to leave behind.
Successful biophilic design depends on more than finding plants and pottery. It requires understanding scale, proportion, material, color, environment, plant health, availability, installation requirements, and how every element will ultimately live within the space.
TruVine provides specialized plant and pottery procurement for hospitality, restaurant, commercial, residential, and design projects.
With more than 50 years of horticultural experience, we bring a trained eye and a deep understanding of living material to every selection. We personally evaluate plants for health, form, fullness, scale, character, and suitability for their intended environment.
No two plants are exactly alike. Plants are grown - not manufactured. Selecting the right specimen requires years of experience and knowledge.
Our pottery procurement follows the same philosophy. We consider proportion, finish, texture, color tone, drainage, durability, placement, and how each vessel complements both the plant and the surrounding architecture and interiors.
We work through an established network of growers, nurseries, pottery suppliers, and specialty sources to locate the right materials for each project. We personally inspect, select, coordinate, and manage the procurement process from source through delivery, installation, and international shipping when required.
Our experience also extends to the logistics behind the design - coordinating freight, delivery schedules, receiving, handling, and placement so the right materials arrive where they need to be, when they need to be there.
Our role is not simply to purchase products.
It is to curate the right combination of plant, pottery, scale, texture, and placement so every element feels intentional and contributes to the overall design.
That attention to detail is where our experience adds value.
From a single statement planter to a complete property installation, TruVine manages procurement with the same standard: quality, consistency, authenticity, and a trained eye for what belongs in the space.
Thoughtfully sourced. Carefully selected. Professionally coordinated.
TruVine Design - experience you can see in every detail.
Consultation
Biophilic Consultation
Experience brings clarity.
Sometimes a project does not require a complete design service. It requires the right advice, the right direction, and an experienced eye.
TruVine provides professional biophilic consultation services for property owners, hospitality groups, architects, interior designers, developers, contractors, and design teams seeking experienced guidance on plants, pottery, placement, sourcing, maintenance, and the overall use of nature within a space.
With more than 50 years of horticultural experience, we bring practical knowledge and design judgment to every consultation. We evaluate the space as a whole - considering architecture, interiors, scale, light, environmental conditions, traffic flow, maintenance requirements, sustainability, and the feeling the finished environment should create.
Our consultations may include recommendations for plant selection, pottery, scale and proportion, placement, interior and exterior conditions, existing plant health, irrigation and water management, sourcing, procurement, maintenance planning, sustainability, and potential improvements to an existing installation.
We also help identify problems before they become expensive mistakes.
Selecting the wrong plant, choosing an incorrect scale, overlooking environmental conditions, or specifying materials that are difficult to maintain can affect both the appearance and long-term success of a project. Experience allows us to recognize those issues early and recommend practical solutions.
Whenever possible, consultations are conducted on site, allowing us to experience the property firsthand and evaluate details that photographs and plans may not fully communicate.
When travel or scheduling makes an on-site visit impractical, TruVine also provides virtual consultation services using photographs, video, plans, renderings, measurements, and live virtual walkthroughs.
Our role is to provide clear, independent, experienced guidance that helps clients make better decisions and adds value to the project.
We believe thoughtful consultation can simplify the process, improve the final result, reduce unnecessary replacement and waste, and help ensure that the living elements of a project are appropriate for the space and sustainable over time.
Whether reviewing an existing installation, developing an early concept, solving a plant-care issue, assisting a design team, or helping determine the next step, TruVine brings the same standard to every consultation:
Experience. Observation. Practical knowledge. Attention to detail.
On site or virtually - professional guidance when the right decision matters.
TruVine Design - experience that adds value.
