Our Most-Loved Project Plants
Some of our most-asked-about plant friends.
Every year as the season’s shift and our surroundings start to bloom; we look for ways to emulate the signs of spring in our homes.
We often get asked what kinds of trees we use in our projects, and our styling team spends a lot of time sourcing them and finding unique and pretty greenery for each design.
In light of bringing our homes to life for the season, we’ve rounded up our most loved, and most asked about plant friends from some of our recent projects.

Love my rubber tree plant! They are so beautiful & easy to take care of. Thanks for sharing these plants, I need something with more height and these are all great options.
Is the tree in the basket next to the stairway a real black olive tree?
I used to have a fiddle leaf fig in the living room and it got a little too big. I recently replaced it with a verigated ficus benjamina and I couldn’t be happier. It gives the room height but since the leaves are much smaller than the FLF, it makes the room feel light and airy.
Would you mind sharing where you purchased your live black olive tree? It’s beautiful.
Are these pic the real tree or faux?
FYI- I think a shady lady budica IS a black olive which you have down separately. Unless by black olive you literally meant an olive that has black olives. Gah! Why do they make it so complicated with every plant having a bazillion names?! Beautiful vignettes, thank you. I always admire your variety in plants and trees!

Oh gosh…I’m feeling like a proud mom…just saw your “fav” Ficus Alii! I found my first one perhaps 6 years ago now…had carried a pic from a decor mag with me for a year or so hoping to find one…at last, there it was, shoved back into a corner in a greenhouse, waiting to be returned due to a weak side of growth. No way!!! It was love at first sight! She has been with me from Cape Cod and now down to the beaches of North Carolina and growing great! Marvelous, lush houseplants!!! Go get yourself one!
Hi Maddie! That’s so great to hear! They really are the best!
Would you share tips on plant heights versus ceiling height?
Hi, I’m wondering where the rug is from in the first photo? Thanks so much!
Thank you! I’ve been curious about the Shady Lady Bucida and the Ficus Alii forever.
