Adding a touch of greenery to your office environment can definitely brighten the days of your employees and bring a calming, natural feel to what may be a stressful setting at times. Let’s not forgot the benefits of all that extra oxygen too!
But maintaining a garden, no matter how small, can require expertise and time. That’s why the SSG Cleaning team has used their vast experience in professional gardening and landscaping services for companies to put together some low-maintenance landscaping ideas for your business.
Add Ground Covering Plants
Adding ground-covering plants to your business garden is an inexpensive and low-maintenance way to add colour and value to your garden without having to spend time on maintenance when time needs to be spent on work. These plants spread easily and will fill flower beds in minimal time. Some ground-covering plants include:
- Hyacinths
- Rhododendrons
- Tulips
- Azaleas
- Daffodils
Plant Evergreens
Evergreens look good all year round and keep their foliage even in the winter months. Evergreens also require very little maintenance, especially if they are a native species. These plants may have a larger initial, but they ultimately save you both time and money in the long run.
Succulent Garden
Creating a succulent garden can create a beautiful, ornamental feature in your corporate garden, with one of the biggest benefits being succulents’ almost zero need for maintenance.
There is very little need to water a succulent garden, and succulents are able to withstand quite extreme weather conditions.
Use your creativity and include rocks, clover, moss and other features to create a garden that truly adds character and will put a smile on the faces of both your employees and customers.
Artificial Grass
Grass can be very difficult to maintain. It needs to be mowed and watered regularly, and all your hard work could disappear in a drought or a flood. Artificial grass is a fantastic alternative.
Artificial grass is a low-maintenance alternative to real grass as it requires zero upkeep and is extremely durable.
This option still adds a touch of green to your corporate environment, but without the need for continuous and costly maintenance.

SSG takes every measure to care for our environment and as such we make use of Go-Green and Eco-friendly products.
