If you don’t have time to care for plants, then artificial options can be your best friends. Hang them up, put them in pots, and have as many or little as possible. You get to enjoy the look without having to remember when to water them. Plus, if you know you’re going to be away for an extended period of time, there’s no need to worry about them dying while you’re gone.

Forget About It


Many people who have the ambition to start a plant family often fizzle out at the end of the month. Their collection slowly starts to turn brown and fade to a droopy mess. With fake plants, you don’t have to worry about following a watering schedule or setting timers on your phone. You can literally forget about them.

Taking care of plants that are alive requires a lot more effort than just watering them once a week. You must change their soil, add in plant nutrients, change pot sizes when they grow, and pick off leaves that are dying and may be dangerous to their growth. With fake plants, you can enjoy all the pretty perks of plants without having to get your hands dirty – literally.

The great part of about artificial plants is that since you can’t kill them, you can change them up for the seasons. Do you want snow berry leaf stems for winter but not during the summer? Get fake ones. Want a fig tree for the spring but not during the fall? Purchase an artificial one. You can mix and match for the seasons and save them in a box for when you want to decorate with them again.
