Plant Plan Podcast Ep. 3 - Indoor Trees: Lifting, Lighting & Loving Them (with Sam)

In this episode, Carlsson chats with Sam about one of our favourite topics - indoor trees. From sourcing them across Europe to craning them onto rooftops, it’s a deep dive into what it really takes to bring big trees into interior spaces. We cover: - Where indoor trees come from - What counts as a “mature” tree in a project - Our go-to species - including the ever-reliable ficus and the beautifully wild shady lady - How to keep trees alive indoors (spoiler: lots of light and water) - What happens when you need to get a 5m tree through a doorway… Sam also shares some favourite projects, why dusty leaves are a big no-no, and the one tree that kept him up at night. If you’ve ever wondered what it takes to get trees thriving in built environments - or just want to hear a few fun stories from behind the scenes - this one’s for you.
