A Complete Guide to Buying Artificial Flowers Plants and trees are critical in décor of any space, be it commercial or residential. Plants can enhance the look of the space of your home or office manifolds, especially during those cold, dark months of the year. However, many people do not have the time or energy to maintain the upkeep of plants, flowers, and trees in their homes or office. This is where artificial plants and trees come into play. Artificial trees and plants enliven the mood of a room and brighten dark corners, and the best part is that they do not decay and rot. This guide from Bloomr will offer you some valuable tips on where to find good artificial plants and how to take care of them: What Are Artificial Plants? Artificial plants are a great alternative to actual live plants for decorating spaces. This is one of the main reasons many people consider buying artificial plants for their homes. Faux plants not only alleviate the responsibility that comes along with taking care of fresh, live plants, but they also are great alternatives for people who are sensitive to flower pollen. Artificial plants are made from various materials including silk and plastic, the latter is suitable for areas that experience extreme heat and temperatures. Some artificial plants are resistant to fire without compromising on appearance. Plastic Plants vs. Silk Plants Earlier in the day, people kept fake-looking silk plants in their home. These were usually made from fabrics, most commonly silk. Advancements mean that fake plants now feature amazingly realistic texture, color and, even reflective properties. This is especially true of plastic plants, which are usually created using molds of real plants. Some fake plants are even filled with foam for an ultra-realistic textile quality. A major benefit of plastic plants is that many of the trendy house plants in modern home décor kind of look plastic, to begin with. Succulents are a fantastic example—the real ones already look fake, so the fake ones automatically look real. Another benefit of plastic plants is that they can easily complement the look of modern homes. Silk plants are also much more prone to wear-and-tear than fake plants. It’s a dead giveaway you’ve got a faux fern on your hands when its leaves are frayed or bleached out by the sun. Therefore, many people choose plastic plants instead of silk plants due to their prolonged life. What to Look for When Buying Artificial Plants? You should choose artificial plants that mimic the look of specific live plants such as aloe, air plants, banana trees, and monster leaves. Alternatively, you should look for artificial plants that imitate potted varieties of actual plants. When shopping for artificial plants, you can compare the look of fake plants with the pictures of the real varieties.


However, you should also avoid plants that look overly fake. Plants with phony rain droplets, for example, are not the best options. Also, some artificial plants that have a glossy finish can come across as a little bit tacky. Instead, you can choose plants with minute details such as delicate root sheaths at the bottom of the plant or even dirt around its base. How to Decorate with Artificial Plants? You can create beautiful décor even with the low-quality fake plant that has potential if you style it right. The biggest thing you need to do is treat your fake plant like a real plant. You should ditch the generic vase or planter in favor of a more thoughtful and attractive option. You can also research how the real version of the plant you’re purchasing is typically planted, and try to recreate those settings. One of the biggest advantages of picking fake plants is that they can essentially last forever if well cared for. You also don’t have to worry about that particular plant overgrowing the space you bought it for. You can buy a new container or put it in a new spot for a new look after some time.
