The larger the plant, the more likely it is to look fake.
Check detailed product photos to ensure they look just as stunning from all angles.
Easy Maintenance
One of the biggest advantages of artificial plants is they require very little maintenance.
How you clean them depends on your plants materials, says Burnett.
For deeper cleaning, check the manufacturers instructions first, but Burnett suggest a few options.
Just dont submerge them in water as it may cause the colors to run.
Burnett also recommends minimizing long periods of direct sunlight to reduce any fading.
Material
The key to a realistic and long-lasting faux plant lies in the materials.
Manufacturing has come a long way over the years, Burnett says.
That means high-quality faux plants are crafted from materials like silk, polyester, or even high-grade plastic.
Today’s plants mimic the natural look and feel of real plants, creating a stunningly realistic impression.
Different materials also suit different types of plants, too, to really up the true-to-life look and feel.
Investing in quality goes beyond aesthetics.
