Our History
Phillip’s Interior Plants & Displays has been a division of Phillip’s Flowers & Gifts since 1976
Over 45 Years of Providing the Best in Plant & Display Services
Since 1976, Phillip’s Interior Plants & Displays has been a wholly owned division of Phillip’s Flowers and Gifts, specializing in interior plantscaping and holiday displays.
Amid the growing environmental awareness of the 1970s, it became popular for people to care for plants in their home and businesses to use plants as environmental design features. Businesses soon learned that plants were not only aesthetically pleasing, but they also helped to clean the air, buffer sound, and could be used to break up large spaces to give workers a sense of privacy. As more customers requested our interior landscaping services, Phillip’s Interior Plants was officially formed as a division of Phillip’s Flowers and Gifts.
Soon after, Phillip’s Display Services was also started as a specialty business for the company. This seasonal business decorated the lobbies and focal points of many businesses throughout Chicago and the suburbs. Since many of the same clients utilized both interior plant services and holiday displays, it made sense to combine the two divisions under one roof, and Phillip’s Interior Plants & Displays came to be.
Throughout the years, Phillip’s Interior Plants & Displays has continued to grow, and now provides exceptional interior plant service and custom holiday display services to hundreds of businesses throughout the Chicagoland area. The division has also grown to include a variety of additional products and services, including green walls, moss walls, silk plants, and exterior & seasonal plantings.
100 Years and Counting
Founded in 1923 by James A. Phillip, Phillip’s Flowers & Gifts has been providing quality floral and plant gifts to the Chicagoland area for 100 years and counting! Originally operating out of a storefront on Cermak Road in Cicero, IL, the business grew and quickly became a family affair as the company expanded to include multiple new locations. To this day, Phillip’s Flowers & Gifts remains family-owned, and is now run by third- and fourth-generation family members.
Today, Phillip’s Flowers includes retail floral shops in Elmhurst, Hinsdale, La Grange Park, Naperville, Westmont, and Wheaton, as well as its commercial interior landscaping & display division headquartered in Oak Brook (that’s us!). Providing daily deliveries throughout Chicago and its suburbs, Phillip’s Flowers & Gifts is widely renown for providing beautiful floral decorations for everything from weddings and anniversaries to new babies and birthdays, as well as funerals, memorials, and celebrations of life.
