While many people love the look and feel that houseplants provide, not everyone has the time (or the green thumb) that’s necessary to nurture live plants. Fortunately, these gorgeous artificial plants offer an alternative that’s virtually impossible to tell from the real thing. Here are some of our favorite artificial plants to bring the outdoors in.
More than 1,000 leaves
Need a statement piece? Look no farther than this gorgeous faux ficus. Standing almost six feet tall, this tree’s branches are packed with more than 1,000 leaves for a dramatic, life-like look. Perfect for an entryway or a picture window, this ficus creates a calm forest vibe wherever you place it – no pruning or watering required.
Realistic coloration
Fiddle leaf figs are lovely and never fade from popularity, but they’re also notoriously hard to keep alive. This faux fig offers the best of both worlds: That photo-friendly, sculptural style without all the hassle. You’ll appreciate the realistic coloration on the lux foliage, and wired branches make for easy adjustments. It’s the perfect choice for that boho or farmhouse style you love.
Lush foliage
Turn any room into a beach hideaway with a life-like palm tree. Standing all at more than six feet in height, this palm sports multiple trunks and lush silk foliage. This tree brings an effortless tropical style into any room in your home or office, thanks to its relaxed look and sunny vibe. Best of all, the smallest breeze sets its leaves shimmering.
Packed leaves on wire stems
There’s a reason why hanging plants feature in so many Instagram feeds – these trailing vines lend a lush, tropical look to any room. Whether you hang them in cute macrame holders, trail them along a bookshelf, or let them spill along a windowsill, ivy vines instantly green your habitat. This set of three vines features thickly packed leaves on wired stems, so you can easily shape the vines however you like.
Paper maché pots
This set of three plants adds instant style to your home. Housed in modern paper maché pots, you’ll love the look of rosemary, eucalyptus, and boxwood when displayed in a grouping or on their own. The plants’ varying foliage colors add to the full, realistic look. They’re perfect for a mantle, shelf, corner table, or anywhere that needs a fresh burst of green.
