Office Plant Rentals & Maintenance in Cape Town | Lowensvlei Office Plant Service
Office Plant Rentals & Maintenance in Cape Town – A Lowensvlei Service
Imagine walking into your office on a Monday morning and being greeted by lush, healthy plants instead of tired plastic décor.
With Lowensvlei’s office plant rental and maintenance service, you can bring the calm of our flower farm into your
workspace – without any of the hassle of looking after the plants yourself.
Based just outside Cape Town, Lowensvlei Flower Farm now offers a fully managed office plant solution for businesses
in Tygervalley, Bellville, Durbanville, Cape Town CBD, the Northern Suburbs, Swartland and surrounding areas.
You deal with Lowensvlei; our specialist indoor plant partner handles the on-site servicing – all under the Lowensvlei brand.
Why Modern Offices Are Investing in Indoor Plants
Office plants are no longer just “nice to have décor”. Well-designed indoor greenery has been shown to:
- Improve indoor air quality by helping to reduce certain airborne pollutants
- Lower stress levels and create a calmer, more welcoming environment
- Support focus, creativity and productivity
- Reduce noise and “hard” echoes in open-plan offices
- Strengthen your brand image as a business that cares about people and the environment
Studies – including those originally done for NASA on plants and indoor air – have helped establish how living plants can
support healthier indoor spaces, which is why many South African companies now rent office plants as a standard part of their
workspace design.
What the Lowensvlei Office Plant Service Includes
We’ve designed this service to be as simple as possible for you. You get one supplier (Lowensvlei), one invoice, and a
beautifully maintained office. Looking for pricing and a quote? Visit our Office Plant Rental & Maintenance page for Cape Town.
1. On-site Consultation & Plant Design
Every office is different. We start with a site visit where we:
- Walk through your office, reception, boardrooms, break areas and any client-facing spaces
- Assess light levels, traffic flow and existing furniture/brand colours
- Discuss whether you prefer a sleek corporate look, a warm “home-from-home” feel or something in between
- Agree on a realistic monthly budget
Using this, we put together a planting plan that may include:
- Tall statement plants in stylish pots for reception and boardrooms
- Desk-height plants and low planters for open-plan areas
- Green walls or vertical planters where you want maximum impact with minimal floor space
- Options for live or realistic artificial plants in areas with very low light
2. Supply of Plants, Pots & Greenery
As growers and plant people, Lowensvlei handles the selection and sourcing of plants and containers suited to
office conditions in the Western Cape. Our specialist indoor partner maintains extensive ranges of:
- Indoor plants & trees suitable for offices
- Modern pots and planters in various finishes, sizes and colours
- Live and artificial green walls
- Short-term rental plants for events, launches and functions
The result is a professionally curated look that matches your brand and your building – not just a few random plants “stuck in the corner”.
3. Fully Managed Maintenance Service
The biggest reason office plant projects fail is simple: no one has time to look after the plants.
That’s why our service includes ongoing care visits by trained indoor plant technicians. Depending on your
layout and plant mix, they will visit on a regular schedule (weekly/fortnightly) to:
- Water all plants correctly
- Fertilise as needed
- Clean leaves and trim any dead or damaged foliage
- Monitor for pests and diseases and treat when required
- Replace any plants that fail as part of the contract, so your office always looks fresh
This “plant care included” model is standard in top indoor plant rental businesses and ensures your office never sits with
half-dead plants again.
4. Flexible Rental & Purchase Options
We know every business budgets differently, so we can structure your office plant solution as:
- Monthly rental – plants, pots and maintenance included in one predictable monthly fee
- Capex + maintenance – you buy the plants and containers, and we look after them for a monthly service fee
- Event / short-term rentals – perfect for conferences, launches and seasonal décor
Whichever route you choose, you still get Lowensvlei’s horticultural expertise and the same high level of on-site plant care.
Who This Service Is Perfect For
Our office plant service works well for:
- Corporate offices and business parks
- IT and tech companies (including hybrid/remote hubs)
- Co-working spaces and serviced offices
- Medical suites, dentists and wellness practices
- Hotels, guest houses and hospitality venues
- Retail showrooms and customer service centres
We currently focus on Cape Town and surrounds – including Tygervalley, Bellville, Durbanville, Century City,
Cape Town CBD, the Northern Suburbs and Swartland/Weskus corridor – with options to service wider areas through our national partner network.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do we rent or own the plants?
Most clients choose the rental option, where the plants, pots and maintenance are included in one monthly fee.
If you prefer to own the assets, we can quote a purchase + maintenance structure instead.
How often do you service the plants?
Service frequency depends on the site and plant mix, but typically we visit once a week or once every two weeks.
High-traffic or high-profile sites may request more frequent checks.
What areas do you cover?
We focus on Cape Town and surrounding areas – including Tygervalley, Bellville, Durbanville, Century City,
Cape Town CBD, Northern Suburbs, Swartland and parts of the West Coast. If you’re unsure, send us your address and we’ll confirm.
How much does it cost?
Costs depend on the number of plants, container choices and service frequency. As a guide, smaller offices often start with a
compact package (reception + a few feature points), then scale up once they see the impact. We’ll tailor a solution to your
space and budget.
