A photo taken from some way back, but that’s one of our Cordyline fruticosa trees (that’s what it says on the box, anyway…) they’re sort of modern, tall and gangly, which is probably what the folk who hang out at this Notting Hill bar are as well!

Our fine-leaf bamboo. In a rectangular planter, as here, it works well as a room divider. It’s just as nice in a conventional pot, and it looks great spot-lit – we have it in heights from one to three metres. It’s another tree that’s UV resistant, though tbh it’s not too happy in strong winds!
708
One of our nice olives, this is the most popular as the trunk size makes visual sense for the 160cm height. In this picture it’s raised up in the bombe planter to around 185cm overall. As a Brucie Bonus, it’s also got UV foliage, so is fine for balconies and patios, should you feel that way inclined.
707
An Areca (or maybe a Kentia) palm. One of them certainly! Again, available in a variety of heights, this one is 2m tall. They do take up a fair bit of left-right space, though. We also have some leaf variations, with both a UV version for use outdoors (in non-windy places…) and a slimmer leaf version. Pretty much impossible to see the difference in pictures, so book in to have a look!
706
Big family, the Ficus (Ficuses? Ficii?). This is a Lyrata or Fiddle-Leaf, and our rather nice version of one. As fake leaves get bigger, there’s a tendency for them to look less convincing, and we spent a lot of time getting ours to be thick and 3D enough to look good close up. We have these in a variety of sizes, with both plain and vine-wrapped trunks, as here.
705
We have no idea why these are called French Ficus trees – they don’t grow in France… They’re about our most popular house tree, though, and come in three sizes from 150cm/5’ through to 230cm, which is seven-and-a bit-feet in old money. The trunks are liana vines, the leaves a grey dark green - and the whole thing is very good looking.
704
More copper, this time with a lot of mad straggling grey-frosted plants at the Ivy, in a sort of ‘Kings Road meets Louisiana swamp’ lopsided vibe with bare twigs. Less is more, they say…

More of the ‘hang ‘em high’ style, this time as a play-around to see how orchids can be used without looking silly or growing out at an implausible 90 degrees to reality. Work in progress, and we need to improve the knot-tying!
893
Not really very wild or trailing, but we have great succulents, and we use a lot of them dotted among all the greenery and also in our indoor livings walls. We’re currently making a green wall that’s entirely succulents for a boat project, so if or when that’s completed, we’ll post it here.
892
Another project in Dublin, this time at Brown Thomas, using a similar mixed mass of ferns – like the ones floating in the air a little earlier in the sequence. This wasn’t a large enough project to justify flying a team out, so it was built in our workshops as a ‘drop-in’ and sent over by carrier.
