Abstract: The present invention is directed toward a method of doing business that provides for the floral decorating of a hotel room. The present invention describes a method for providing planters and plants to hotel rooms and guest rooms free of charge. Advertisers pay for advertising space on the planters, and the advertisements are then printed upon or affixed to the sides of the planters. The plants are planted in a soil substitute which lowers the all-around maintenance needs (watering, fertilizer, repotting) of the plants/flowers, ensuring a longer lasting display.

Abstract: The present invention is directed toward a business method that provides for the floral decorating of a hotel room. The present invention describes a method for changing a typical hotel room into a high impact, visually appealing setting. Specifically, the method utilizes the materials as shown in U.S. Pat. No. 6,041,546 to Baranova, which describes a low maintenance system that can be used to decorate a typical hotel room with approximately thirty to forty live plants. Along with that of a visually appealing setting, a natural health benefiting system can also be created. Profits for an independent company are provided by a percentage of additional fees charged for an upgraded room such as described in the present invention.
