The Beijing plant rental service market is currently a mixed bag, with both high-quality and low-quality services for plant rental and flower display in Beijing. The entry threshold for Beijing flower and plant rentals is low, with many practitioners having only worked as temporary caretakers for a few months at regular flower and plant rental companies before taking on client projects. They lack professional knowledge and start offering plant and flower rental services without any experience. They are far from proficient in flower scheme design and the artful arrangement of flowers and plants. The flowers and plants they place for clients lack any artistic flair, and their after-sales service is non-existent. They have no long-term brand development philosophy, and they compete in the Beijing flower and plant rental market with low rental prices. The plants and flowers they deliver to clients are only watered once or twice a week, and they barely do basic tasks like cleaning the leaves, trimming dead branches and yellow leaves, or washing the flower trays, leaving everything in a haphazard manner.

Up to the point where many clients perceive the so-called flower and plant leasing service as simply renting from a flower marketBuy a few pots of flowers and plants, just water them regularly—it's that simple! There's no technical skill involved. So, smaller clients opt to purchase and maintain the plants themselves, while larger clients compare prices with legitimate flower rental companies or branded gardening service providers based on the experience of this山寨 rental service. This has only added to the already fragile flower and plant rental service market. In fact, it's necessary for me to explain the true process and service content of the flower and plant rental service to our customers, to help you differentiate between legitimate flower rental companies and copycat operations. When a legitimate flower and plant service company receives your call, they will briefly understand your company's situation, such as the size of your office, the status of the construction, and whether you have a plan for flower placement. If your office is fully constructed and the desks and chairs are in place but you don't have a flower placement plan, they will seek your opinion for an on-site inspection, design a plan based on your company's lighting, orientation, and preferences, and send you a table with text and images the same day. The table includes the names, sizes, quantities, monthly rental prices, placement locations, images, and total price of the flowers, allowing you to easily see the details of your office flower arrangement upon opening the table!

Beijing's plant and flower rental service is an industry that has only emerged in the past decade or so. It's possible that some friends may still be unaware of its existence. In fact, this approach was initially proposed by the buyers of plants and flowers. Below, I'll explain how the plant and flower rental business came about.

This matter starts with2004In the year, back then, there wasn't a well-established large-scale flower wholesale market in Beijing. We were at the Old Xinglong Flower and Plant Market, which is now the western entrance to Zhongxing Flower Market at Huangtu冈, north of the Fourth Ring Road.200North of the road, it has now become a green belt, with business primarily focused on wholesale and retail. Many companies based in Beijing come here to purchase flowers and greenery to inject life and purify the indoor air in their offices, while also mitigating some of the electromagnetic radiation from electronic products. However, most of these companies lack knowledge or professionals in the care of flowers and greenery, resulting in the vibrant plants often wilting within a few weeks to a couple of months. They are then forced to spend more money on new flowers and greenery. After several losses, some companies have consulted us for care methods and precautions, but with minimal success. I remember clearly that a company based at the Ke Fengqiao headquarters proposed that after purchasing the greenery and flowers from our nursery, our nursery's caretakers would regularly visit their office to maintain the plants. The purchasing party would then pay a fee based on the caretaker's work. Both parties agreed to a one-year partnership, during which the office plants were meticulously cared for by our professionals, thriving lushly and vibrantly.

One year after the verbal agreement expired, the flowers and green plants had thrived under careful nurturing, many losing their original graceful shapes and some woody plants' branches even reached the ceiling of the office. This caused the buyer to worry again, as replacing the lush greenery would be a waste, yet keeping them would result in an unrecognizable form. With another purchase looming as an expense, the purchasing department manager approached me to inquire if we could replace their company's greenery with our new plants, with the maintenance still handled by us. They would pay us a monthly fee per pot of greenery and flowers. Upon hearing this, I agreed, though it was the first time I had rented greenery. I asked about the pricing, as there was a large green plant priced at200-600Not waiting, placing so many pots all at once on the other party's side. To put it bluntly, what if they move? After all, the maintenance staff visits once a week. Eventually, both parties agreed to use half of the total price of the flowers and plants as a deposit until the termination date is agreed upon. The rental price per pot of flowers and plants is one-third of the selling price of the flowers as the rental fee. The seller of flowers and plants provides daily maintenance and pest control for the flowers and plants, as well as replacement for any plants that die. The rental fee is settled at the end of each month. This is the draft of the flower rental contract.
