Local conditions
Planning for Kolkata's climate
Fig. 01Climate and soil
Kolkata is hot and humid with a long, heavy monsoon. Drainage is the first thing to get right in any garden, and plants need protection from fungal disease in the rains.
Fig. 02When to plant and how to care
Plant trees at the start of the monsoon. Winter from November to February is the season for flowers and vegetables, which is when Kolkata's gardens look best.

Indoor venues, short timelines
New Town's Biswa Bangla Sarani, a major arterial road linking its Action Areas to the airport, runs alongside a stretch the township designates as a green corridor, and the conference and exhibition venues built along New Town's central business district sit in that same zone. Plants for an event here are usually staged indoors, under air conditioning, for the length of a single event rather than months.
Most conferences, launches and exhibitions needing plant backdrops in Kolkata run indoors across New Town's central business district and Sector V's office campuses, which means the plants spend the morning in storage at outdoor humidity and the afternoon on stage under cooled, dry air.
We choose palms, flowering plants and green backdrops that transition well between the two conditions rather than ones suited to only one or the other.
Getting plants to an outdoor event and back
An outdoor launch or exhibition stall booked during the wet months has to plan around rain reaching the site with little warning, and we build a wet-weather contingency into the delivery and placement schedule for any event booked in that stretch.
Events booked in the drier months carry far less of that risk, which also happens to be when Kolkata's own flowering displays are at their best, giving us more seasonal flowering plants to offer as backdrop.
Setup and breakdown on the day
Plants are delivered and placed against the venue's floor plan on the morning of the event, checked once more closer to the start time, and collected once the event ends rather than left behind for the venue to manage.
For a multi-day exhibition we visit between days to refresh anything that has wilted under continuous stage lighting.
Matching plants to the venue's own conditions
A stage lit for a full day under continuous artificial light stresses a plant differently than natural daylight would, so we choose backdrop species partly on how well they tolerate that kind of lighting for the length of the event rather than on appearance alone.
For a multi-day exhibition we rotate a second set of the same species in partway through, so the display on day three still looks as fresh as it did on day one.
