Weathering the Storm
How Plant Designs London Adapted to the Pandemic
By: William Braid
Owner Plant Designs, London England
T he pandemic has been difficult for everyone, and dealing with it as a business has been an unprece-
dented challenge. Whilst many businesses could transition into home working during the seemingly
endless lockdowns, for Plant Designs and our horticultural teams it wasn’t quite that simple. With
clients all across London, we had to adapt to a new way of living whilst ensuring our plants were
nurtured and thriving. Even now, we continue to work under the cloud of COVID as factors such as
self-isolation remain a potential hurdle for our vital teams who do not have the luxury of working from home.
However, though the past year brought complexities, we look forward to the future with a cautious sense of
optimism. Our business and industry has been through many changes, but there’s hope ahead.
