Vases and dirt 

Anchor faux plants with dirt, fake moss or rocks to give them a realistic look and feel. Tall, transparent, colour coordinated vases in various shapes can compliment well with your artificial plants. Both vases combined with dirt, moss or stone aim to elevate any plant while instantly adding polish and personality. 


Keep them clean 

Cleaning artificial plants is way easier than real plants, as they don’t need much upkeep like real plants to keep looking beautiful. Our artificial plants our build to last, so don't be scared to dust them aggressively, they won't break!


Lightly dusting artificial plants with a soft bristle brush, feather duster will ensure no damage. Also always test a small patch before using chemical solutions while cleaning, to avoid colours fading.
