Display Posters

Beautiful and attention-getting, our professionally designed posters in our updated branding style help shoppers find Monrovia plants in your garden center. We offer three sizes and formats to help bring customers that last step from our marketing to your displays. 

Please see our 2024 Poster Key for all available options, or ask your sales rep for their advice and to place your order.

Display
1 Monrovia's two-sided display posters are made to fit our table frames or hang from grommets. Choose from plant or collection-specific designs, landscape solutions, or lifestyle trend topics.
Spotlight- 16-9
2 Smaller spotlight posters highlight Monrovia exclusives or grab-and-go displays. H-frame wires are included for easy attachment.
A-frame POP 16-9
3 Our sturdy A-frame fold-out poster only needs a weight at the bottom for easy setup. Taller and wider than the spotlight poster, this self-standing poster is ideal for larger table displays or floor-level plants like trees and shrubs.

Plant Photography

How do I get the Monrovia photos I would like to use in my garden center's marketing?

Some customers may be able to use branded photos of the Monrovia varieties in their current orders. Please contact your Monrovia Sales Craftsman to request images or see if you qualify for our photography benefit.

If you qualify and request images, please allow up to 14 business days to fulfill your photo request. Requests of 100+ plant photos may take up to three weeks.

Can I download photos from your website? 

No. Please do not download images from our website. Not all Monrovia images are licensed for distribution so we may not own the rights to share certain images with you.

If you accidentally use an image unlicensed for distribution, it is a violation of copyright law. (It also puts the photographers in a difficult position, as they count on licensing to help them earn their living.)

Please submit all photo requests to your Monrovia Sales Craftsman. Thank you.

How long does it take to receive the images I request?

Please allow up to 14 business days to fulfill your photo request.

Note: Requests of 100+ plant photos may take up to three weeks.

Sustainability Practices

Sustainability Guide 16-9

Information about our current sustainability practices is available in three versions to share with customers and staff. You can email or text the digital booklet, print copies of the print-alternative booklet, or print the double-sided trifold. They all contain a broad overview of what we do to grow responsibly in our nurseries. We are currently conducting an in-depth sustainability audit—look for additional measures to be implemented and added to an updated version of these guides soon.
