Plant repotting service in Kenya

Repot customer plants using suitable containers and documented plant condition.

A CONCRETE EXAMPLE · ILLUSTRATIVE

Fictional repotting job: assess eight identified client plants and repot only the six judged suitable under the agreed horticultural scope. Example purchase is six draining pots one appropriate size above actual roots and 20 litres of species-suitable medium; final sizes/volume follow inspection. Deliver plant-ID before/after records and care notes. Exclude large/heavy specimens, unknown toxic plants, disease treatment, pesticide use and a promise that repotting cures every yellow leaf.

Who is the first customer?

Households and offices with root-bound or unsuitable pots.
