Maintenance Visits

Your plants, cared for on schedule, even when life gets busy

Routine care is what keeps a collection healthy, and it is the first thing to slip when work, family, or travel takes over. Maintenance visits put your plants on a steady routine handled by a horticulturist.

Flat $185 house call from Sarasota to Port Charlotte. Two hours, written plan included. Virtual consults from $65.

What gets done every visit

  • Watering matched to each plant and each season, not a one-size schedule.
  • Feeding when plants are actively growing, skipped when they are resting.
  • Grooming: pruning, deadheading, staking, and cleaning foliage so plants look as good as they feel.
  • A health check of every plant, so pests and problems get caught early instead of after they spread.
  • A visit note so you always know what was done and how your plants are doing.

Built for real schedules

Snowbirds, frequent flyers, and anyone whose watering can has a guilt problem: this service exists so your plants stop depending on your calendar. Set a routine, hand me the details, and come home to plants that never noticed you left.

Pairs well with a membership

Maintenance visits are booked as you need them and priced per visit. Two packages sit around them and bring the per-visit cost down if you are on a regular rhythm: Canopy at $75 a month for ongoing support between visits, and Grove at $1,995 a year, which wraps four seasonal in-home visits, priority post-storm scheduling, and year-round support into one plan.

Both are laid out in full, with what each one includes and what it costs, on the pricing and packages section of the home page. Have a look before the discovery call and you will know which one you are asking about.

How this works, start to finish

  1. Start

    Find out what is actually going on

    Two ways in, same visit and same price. A consultation is the whole collection: every plant identified, assessed, and put on a routine. A health diagnosis is one plant in trouble: what went wrong, and whether it can come back.

  2. Treat

    The fix gets done

    Every visit ends with a written plan, and most of it you can do yourself. When you would rather not, the treatment is the next booking and I do the work: repotting into the right mix and pot size, or a full pest treatment cycle across the collection.

  3. Keep you are here

    It stays fixed

    Routine care is what makes the first two steps hold. Recurring visits handle the watering, feeding, grooming, and a health check every time, whether you are home or away. Canopy adds support between visits; Grove wraps the whole year.

  4. Grow

    You add to it on purpose

    Once the collection is healthy, the fun part: new plants chosen for the light a room really gets, and arranged so they look like they were meant to be there.

You can stop after step one. Plenty of people take the written plan and run with it, and that is a good outcome. Nothing here rolls over into anything else on its own.

Common questions

How often do maintenance visits happen?

Most homes do well on a visit every one to two weeks, set by what your collection actually needs. Travelers often book a weekly visit just for the weeks they are away. There is no contract tying you to a schedule; we adjust as seasons and plants change.

Can you care for my plants while I travel?

Yes, and it is one of the most common reasons people call. Your plants get the same routine whether you are home or not: watering, feeding, and a health check every visit, with a note so you know how everything looked.

What does a visit include?

Watering matched to each plant, feeding in season, pruning and deadheading, cleaning dust off foliage, rotating for even growth, and a quick health check on every plant so small problems get caught while they are still small.
