Floral Design, Installation & Maintenance
At Lafleur de la Capitale, we believe flowers are more than decoration — they’re a powerful expression of beauty, mood, and place. Our floral design team works closely with you to create impactful, tailored displays that complement each environment. Whether you’re looking to enhance a storefront, public space, or private property, we design floral arrangements that elevate curb appeal and create a welcoming atmosphere.
From spring blooms to fall displays, our experienced crews handle every step of the installation process with care and precision. We select vibrant, hardy plants suited to our local climate, and ensure that every layout supports visual harmony, color flow, and seasonal transitions. Our attention to detail extends to containers, placement, and plant health, so your displays stay fresh, vibrant, and balanced throughout their lifecycle.
Once installed, we don’t just walk away — we maintain and monitor your displays with regular visits to water, deadhead, fertilize, and replace as needed. Our maintenance programs ensure that your investment continues to shine, and we’re always ready to refresh plantings for holidays or special events. With Lafleur, your flowers will speak volumes — and stay beautiful from the first bloom to the final frost.

At Lafleur de la Capitale, we understand that greenery inside a space does more than just enhance aesthetics — it contributes to wellness, air quality, and a calming, welcoming atmosphere. Whether you manage a corporate office, hotel, retail space, or institutional building, our interior plant maintenance service ensures your plants always look vibrant, healthy, and professionally cared for.
Our expert technicians are trained in the unique needs of indoor plants, from proper lighting and watering schedules to pest management and pruning. We tailor a maintenance plan based on your plant selection and environment, making routine visits to water, fertilize, clean, and trim as needed. If any plants show signs of stress or decline, we replace them quickly to maintain a consistently fresh and polished look.
With an eye for both design and function, we also help you select the right plants and containers for your space and lighting conditions. From lush green walls and tropical statement pieces to discreet potted arrangements, we offer solutions that align with your brand, space, and budget.
