The broad, open sweep of a yeoinocho, planted for a desk rather than a floor.
The plant stands for mystery and lasting good fortune in Korea. It is made up for a narrow spot: an office desk, a shop counter, a reception desk.
It grows well in a bright room. When the surface of the compost has dried right out, a cupful of water is enough, and in a dry room a misting over the leaves does it good. The pot is a white cylinder with vertical ribs.
A plant like this is often what arrives when a Korean business opens, and it is kept on the same desk for years afterwards.

Looking after it
- Light Bright indoors, out of direct sun. Scorched leaves do not grow back.
- Water When the top of the soil is dry, water until it runs out of the bottom. Little and often does more harm than good.
- Air Somewhere the air moves. Roots suffer in a closed corner.
- Winter Keep it above 10°C and out of the path of a heater.
- Leaves Wipe the dust off now and then. Clean leaves breathe.
Questions people ask
A plant or a wreath for an opening?
A wreath stands outside on the day and announces the opening to everyone passing. A plant stays in the shop afterwards. Many people send a wreath for the day and a plant for the years after.
What size should I choose?
Decide where it will stand first. We have floor plants for a corner and smaller pots for a counter. Tell us the spot and we will suggest the size.
Will I know it arrived?
We send you a photograph once it is in place. Ask when you order if you want the room in the shot.
Can I change or cancel the order?
Until we start making it up, yes — message us on the live chat with your order number and we will change or cancel it and refund you in full. Once the florist has started, we can no longer change it.
Bird of Paradise T — about 50 cm
The same plant with its broad, open leaves, grown in the small size. In Korea it stands for mystery and lasting good fortune. About 50 cm including the pot, which suits a narrow spot — an office desk, a counter, a reception desk. It grows well in a bright place; when the surface soil has dried right through, about a paper cup of water is enough. In a dry room, misting the leaves helps. Planted in a white ribbed pot.
Sending a plant to a Korean business
Potted foliage plants are the usual gift when a shop, office or clinic opens in Korea. They are placed by the entrance or the reception desk and stay there — the gift is meant to last rather than to be admired for a day.
A ribbon carrying your name and the occasion phrase is attached to the pot.
