Most of us know that no matter what we do to our silk plants, we can’t kill them or make them wilt. But believe it or not, this is not always true. There are a few ways that your beautiful silk plants and silk trees can look like they’re dying or at least, catching a cold. So here are some tips to keeping them fresh:
- Keep them clean: Dust and other residues can build up on your plants and dull their beauty.
- Keep them out of the kitchen: Cooking greases and other cleaning products can make even a beautiful silk orchid hang its head.
- Try to avoid direct sunlight: You don’t want your silk plants getting cooked in the kitchen or in the sun. The color may fade over time.
Follow these friendly tips and your gorgeous silk trees and silk plants will stay vibrant and look great!

The concept of feng shui (pronounced fung shway) is the ancient Chinese practice of achieving harmony with the environment through the design and layout of space. Adding new decorative items to your home that represent life, whether with a plant or an animal picture, helps to create a calming, tranquil atmosphere.
If you are hesitant to use real plants because of the work involved, consider an exquisitely made silk plant. They never need water, aren’t messy and always look great.
“Many people shy away from using living plants in their decor, claiming their lack of a green thumb results in unhealthy and dead plants. For these people I recommend using life-like or ‘live looking’ fake plants,” says Joyce Hyde, feng shui consultant. “Attractive, good quality silk plants are available in retail outlets in a wide variety of styles … their vibrant green color that symbolizes life, growth and health can transform a dull, lackluster space into a warm and inviting one.”
Directly imported from Asia, the stems are high quality and look remarkably like real plants and flowers. The designers then fashion arrangements to create different looks — Asian, tropical or traditional — to complement any decor you have.

Silk Trees are great for both indoors and protected outdoor environments. They can be used for a home setting or even office settings. So the question is, why silk trees and not the real thing?
First of all, variety is the spice of life! The great thing about silk trees and plants is that there is a huge variety to choose from, and you don’t have to worry about what season it is to have them. The next thing is maintenance. None of us like to pick up leaves, water plants each week, move them out of direct sunlight, and tell stories to them to help them grow.
Let’s not forget, these things are almost indestructible. You can move them around all you want without losing all the soil and having branches get broken off by your grandfather clock. Finally, they are simply gorgeous. We take pride in our wide variety of beautiful silk plants and silk trees.
