Real Houseplants: No Match For Artificial Designs

Nov. 5, 2009 - PRLog -- Jamie Wildgoose, general manager at Lifestyle Trees, who offer topiary balls, artificial silk flowers and an extensive range of high quality artificial trees and plants said, “Homeowners looking to sell their properties are still confronted with an extremely competitive market and employing every device available to secure a sale has become paramount.

“There has certainly been a reported increase in home improvements in recent months and we believe that this is down to property owners seeking to make their properties more attractive to potential buyers.”

Offering homeowners with a longer lasting, low maintenance version of the real thing, artificial plants and flowers have come a long way in the design process so that in some cases it will take a second or third glance before you realise that they are the real plants faux counterpart!

Mr Wildgoose added, “Artificial designs and real plants are very similar indeed in terms of their exterior appearance and they do not need to be replaced once they are out of season, re potted or watered when you are away on holiday, offering a cost effective solution to keeping real house plants. In fact, they require no maintenance whatsoever and are ideally suited to all these indoor locations – home, office, reception, public area etc. – where real plants are often very difficult and expensive to maintain.”

Purchasing real plants which are often fragile requires careful packaging by the retailer or a special trip to the garden centre. Artificial plants are much hardier and as a result, they can easily be purchased online and delivered like any other parcel or package.
