Flora Explora

Flora Explora is a plant company for buildings rather than back yards. From Main Street in Walpole it designs, installs and maintains interior and exterior planting for Boston-area businesses, seasonal and holiday displays included, and its site says Lee DerHagopian has run it since 2010 — sixteen years. Two customer reviews sit on file. A 2023 reviewer wrote that the company "is well known in the downtown area as the best". A November 2025 review is more a piece of fun than a description of a contract: a customer praising "plant girl" for attending to every plant at 17 Court. Two other things turn up around it. A WCVB segment in 2022 named Lee DerHagopian as the owner, and a Patch notice in November 2024 reported that the Neponset Valley Humane Society held its first adoption event at Flora Explora in Walpole. Worth knowing before calling: the company's own description is commercial — "serving Boston-area businesses" — so a homeowner after yard work should settle first whether residential planting is something it takes on at all. Right for an office, lobby or storefront that needs planting designed, installed and then kept alive, particularly with holiday displays in the mix. Ask whether maintenance visits run on a fixed schedule and what happens when a plant fails.
