Benefits of Artificial Plants: Why Low Maintenance Fake Greenery is the Way to Go

I bet you're wondering, why should I choose a fake plant to liven up my home décor? What can an artificial tree bring that a real one can't?

Artificial plants have multiple benefits, and here are just some:  

Low Maintenance:

Greenery, of any kind, no matter the claims, require watering, pruning and repotting at a very minimum. We've all fallen down the rabbit hole of trying to establish a watering schedule resulting in either over or under watering. The hassle and time spent trying to keep your plant alive and in good health can be better spent elsewhere, like on self care instead! Artificial plants require no upkeep, just simply decide it's placement and plant it (either in one of your pre-existing indoor pots, or one of our recycled eco-friendly pots). And voila, a permanent, healthy looking addition to your home or workplace setting, without the fuss. Additionally, you don't have to worry about root rot or needing to repot because your faux plants will never change shape, condition or size! 

Everlasting Beauty:

Adorning an artificial plant or faux flower bouquet in your home or workplace is the ideal way to boost ambience and add an air of sophistication. Workspace a sea of grey and white? Why not add a small artificial potted plant to your desk space. And there's no need to consider lighting or positioning. An artificial pot plant will thrive under the harsh fluorescent lights all year around. And if it's decoration at home you're after, better to add a faux plant or tree to your interior then deal with the regretted and sometimes inevitable plant death. Nothing will make you doubt your green thumb abilities like a wilting indoor plant. 

No Creepy Crawlies:

With all aspects of nature come the dreaded insects with them. Gnats, mealybugs, flies and fungus are just a small variety of pests attracted to indoor plants. There's nothing worse than finding an infestation in your home, which is often only curable by removing the plant itself. However, with fake greenery, there will be no bugs in sight! Infestations are usually caused by the ever-damp necessity of the indoor plant soil. But the removal of the need to water your houseplants thereby removes the threat of creepy crawlies!
