Thanks Plants! Danke Pflanzen! Bedankt Plant! Merci les Plantes!

New plant campaign from the Flower Council of Holland 
Green energy, cosiness, improved air, beauty: there are many reasons for thanking plants for what they do. And that is the angle for the new campaign. 

The message of bringing more plants into the home for their beauty and as an important element in home decor has turned out to be ‘mission accomplished’ for the Flower Council of Holland. As a new boost to encourage consumers to think about plants, the focus of the new ‘Thanks Plants!’ campaign shifts to the benefits of plants for health and well-being. This fits well with the growing interest in healthier living, and brings positivity to the relationship that people have with plants. 

Plants as oxygen in a busy life

‘Thanks Plants!’ will run for at least three years, and has been developed in collaboration with stakeholders in order to further boost sales of plants. The angle: plants make us more energetic, more relaxed, happier and healthier, and all that in exchange for just some water. Plants are also no bother, literally and figuratively protect us from noise and help us to connect with what really matters. When they grow, the people around them grow too. A commercial has been produced from this perspective which will be broadcast on Dutch television at the end of November. The commercial will be broadcast via digital channels in the other countries. Alongside the 80 second commercial, the campaign will be disseminated through many other media channels, such as posters on the street and at metro stations, as well as through social media channels. Naturally the campaign will be supported through all the social media and Thejoyofplants.co.uk’s own inspiration channels.
