From gardening to ornamental production.
A family company that grew to become a national reference, never losing its connection to its roots.
From gardening company to ornamental plant producer
Planta Livre began as a family company focused on producing ornamental plants for the professional market. Over the years, continuous investment in infrastructure, technology and technical knowledge allowed us to expand production capacity, diversify the offer and consolidate its presence in the sector.
With the opening of consumer-facing spaces, we have grown closer to people, combining our expertise as specialist growers with a more accessible and educational approach.
Our nurseries
49 hectares · Founded in 2006
Sintra Nursery
Our main production centre, located in the Sintra region. The temperate climate of the region is particularly suited to the production of shrubs and ornamental plants in pots. We combine traditional cultivation techniques with advanced technology, ensuring quality and consistency in every production.
In 2020 we opened to the public, creating a store designed to offer a complete experience, with a children's playground and the speciality coffee Olmo.
45 hectares · Founded in 2011
Cabeceiras de Basto Nursery
Created to expand the production of ornamental trees grown directly in the ground. The climatic conditions of the region allow us to work with species adapted to greater thermal ranges, contributing to a more diversified and resilient production.
This space, exclusively dedicated to production, uses cultivation techniques that promote balanced root morphology and a wider transplanting window, facilitating the adaptation of plants to different landscaping projects.
Production process
We combine traditional agricultural knowledge with modern technology, ensuring healthy plants adapted to different planting contexts.
Plant material selection
We select seeds and plants with superior characteristics to ensure high-quality propagation.
