Hi Everyone,

 

We are planning on replacing a bamboo trellis in the conservatory with an artificial tree form.  The Larson Company has done work for us in the fairly distant past and we’ve seen some absolutely beautiful stuff at the Shedd Aquarium in Chicago using artificial tree/vine/rock work; does anyone have any ideas or recent contacts for this type of work?  Any company they’ve been pleased to work with?

 

Thanks in advance,

Lucinda
