Finger Lime Tree
Finger Lime Tree has a fine evergreen canopy and can produce slender fruit filled with glistening, pearl-like vesicles that burst gently on the palate — the origin of its 'citrus caviar' nickname. Its light, upright silhouette suits a sunny balcony or bright garden perfectly.
It thrives in full sun with shelter from wind and sharp drainage, plus steady moisture while actively growing. The branches are thorny, so wear gloves when moving or pruning it. For flowering and fruiting details, see the FAQs below; ask us about the current batch before ordering if this matters to you.
Giant Bird of Paradise
Giant Bird of Paradise — A large Strelitzia nicolai, approx. 170cm tall, with upright stems and broad tropical leaves for bright living rooms, offices and entrances.
- Strong vertical form for larger indoor spaces
- Best in bright light; acclimatise gradually before stronger direct sun
- Water when the top 2–3cm of soil feels dry, then drain thoroughly

Olive Tree
Olive Tree brings Mediterranean character to a sunny balcony or rooftop, with grey-green leaves, silvery undersides and a sculptural trunk. Give it around 6 hours or more of direct sun daily. Pale walls and warm wood make a quiet backdrop for its natural form.
Approx. 1.7–1.8 m overall, including the nursery pot.
Ruffled Fan Palm
Styled Dragon Tree
Umbrella Fig
Umbrella Fig lifts broad, heart-shaped leaves into an airy, sculptural canopy for a lounge, entrance or reception. Its soft outline reads beautifully against warm white walls, timber and pale stone. Choose approx. 160 cm or 240 cm to suit your space.
Keep it warm in bright, indirect light, clear of harsh sun and air-conditioning draughts. Water thoroughly once the compost surface begins to dry, then let it drain fully. Wear gloves when pruning — the milky sap can irritate skin.

Which large floor plant suits a living room or entrance hall?
When choosing a large plant, consider its height, leaf spread and window light together. Giant Bird of Paradise and Giant Wave Alocasia have broad leaves and suit a bright, roomy spot. Corn Plant and Song of Jamaica are upright and save floor space. False Aralia is lighter and works beside a corridor. Measure the spot before ordering.
Measure the room, not just the height
Check the ceiling height, floor space and nearby furniture before choosing a listed size. Allow for spreading leaves and future growth, and keep walkways clear.
Make a clear route for delivery
Measure doors, corridors and lifts. Tell us about narrow turns, stairs or unloading restrictions before ordering. Placement assistance depends on access and staffing.

Before you order
Does the listed height include the pot?
Check the individual product measurements. If the measuring method is unclear, ask us to confirm it before ordering.
Can you place the plant in a particular spot?
Tell us where you want it placed so we can confirm access and staffing. Please flag stairs or special handling requirements in advance.
Will the plant look exactly like the photograph?
No. Natural plants vary in branching and foliage. If the silhouette matters to your space, ask about photographs of the current batch before ordering.
Will a large plant lean toward the window?
Yes, plants grow towards light. Turn the pot a little every so often so the canopy grows evenly, and make sure the pot is stable before moving it.
How often does a large plant need repotting?
It depends on root growth. If roots show at the base or water runs straight through, consider a larger pot. Repot during the growing season and allow room to move it.
How long does delivery take in Hong Kong?
Delivery normally takes 3–7 business days after ordering to Hong Kong Island, Kowloon and the New Territories, excluding outlying islands. The date still needs confirmation; public holidays and severe weather can cause delays.
How much does delivery cost?
Delivery is free on orders of HK$1,500 or more; otherwise, it costs HK$200. Direct lift access carries no stair charge; carrying upstairs costs HK$50 per floor. Please ask us about unusual access.
What if my plant arrives with a health issue?
Contact us within seven days with your order number and photographs of the plant. Claims are handled under the returns policy; the health promise does not cover every reason for an exchange.
