We all love plants, they fill our home and office with bursts of creativity and serenity, promoting a spirit of well-being. 

Let’s admit it, not all of us are naturally inclined at taking care of a real plants and keeping them alive. That’s why artificial plants exist!

We all have seen faux plants evolve with time. They used to be tacky and very fake looking (some still look very fake, not all faux plants are created equally) but today, placing the right artificial plant in the right space can make your home and office just look - extravagant. 

Another reason faux plants are an appealing prospect for people who lack the ability to take care of real plants is they do not demand a lot of maintenance and are available in a wide price range and variety to blend in any home and office decor.  

Here’s a few expert tips and tricks on how to pick artificial plants both for your home and office. We are hoping this will help you nail the dream decor you have in mind. 

Quality 

Never compromise on the quality of the faux plants you choose. They are a long term investment, so before buying make sure the quality of the material is top notch. Sometimes the cheaper artificial plants might seem like a tempting choice but compromising on quality is not always the best option for your decor, especially if you will be looking at the plant every single day.

When searching for quality plants for your home the Monstera plant tops the list. It is also known as the Swiss cheese plant because of its large holes. Our faux Monstera plants have what it takes to bring summer in your home all year long, as it radiates a tropical warmth with its glossy leaves and stems.

Colour 

While choosing any artificial plant, always understand the theme of the decor, the vision you have in mind. Minimalist or maximalist? Airy or busy?  Do you want dark green for your snake plants or yellow and light green?

Colourful faux plants add an instant glow to any home. Choose bright coloured arrangements if you are looking to add pop and just uplift your home decor.

Add some excitement to the work place with smaller artificial plants or an oversized faux Bird Of Paradise Plant might do the trick.
