Artificial plants can enliven any space. Whether it is your business reception, office, retail space or home. Plants bring life to many interiors, fill empty corners, and bring colour and vibrance to a variety of décors.   They create visual impact to your business décor and brighten the spirits of those who see them.

If you are seeking artificial plants for your home or office, here are some points to consider:

Artificial plants are botanically lifelike and can add a tasteful ambience to décor.  They are a premium choice for large offices or industrial spaces, including Residential Aged Care Facilities. There are a wide variety of artificial plants available in a different shapes and sizes to fit any space.  Some of the varieties include raphis palms, olive trees, bamboo and palm trees. Check out the range on our website (Artificial tree page)

 

Maintenance and Cleaning

One of the challenges of having fresh plants is that they require daily care including watering and sunlight. Their maintenance can be time consuming especially for staff as each plant has different requirements. This is why many corporations have decided that artificial plants are a better option for the corporate space. They look beautiful, last a long time, and they require minimal maintenance.

 

The best way to clean your artificial plants is to use a damp microfibre cloth with a little tea tree oil which will return the vibrance to the leaves and make them look brand new.

 

Last Forever

In addition to low maintenance, they appear to last forever.  As long as you don’t damage them you can be sure that they can sit in your lobby, living room, office, bedroom, or any other location for years without losing their lustre.

 

Saving you Money

All of this leads to the most important reason for getting artificial plants – they save money. Whether it be long or short term. They look good for years creating enjoyment season after season, year after year, without the need to replace them frequently. This saves you a significant amount of money in comparison to purchasing live plants.

 

No Need to Worry about Space

There is one other reason why choosing artificial plants makes a lot of sense. If you purchase a live plant,  it may look perfect in the space initially. It may be ideal for the entrance to your reception are or in your home. However, that plant is going to continue to grow. Eventually, if you have or haven’t cared for it properly, it can either outgrow or outdate in its space or die due to light & water dependency.

As you can see, there are clear reasons why artificial plants make sense. If you are looking to liven up a space in your corporate or office, this is the perfect choice.
