How are the faux trees holding up? Also how did you secure them in the pot?

Thanks for posting this.

I have a similar arrangement and lost two $200 spiral junpiers to a drought a few years ago. Needless to say, not planting those again.

Haven’t touched them and they still look the same. Dark green.

How these trees holding up? About to replace some potted shrubs I let die of dehydration and would like to go this route for obvious reasons

I can't speak for the OP, but I can tell you that I ordered a set of these trees as a result of this post and I'm not happy with them. The set I received looks fake, they have a blue tint to them more than the green that the OP shows and I had a lot of "leaves" fall off. I'm not sure if I received an old set or one that was maybe sitting in the heat a lot, but I'm not happy with them. If I wasn't so lazy, I would have returned them already. Maybe this weekend I'll get around to that.

That's disappointing to hear. Which "plant" did you get?

I’ve always thought that’s the best way to go. Wife says “they are fake, people will know”
I said people don’t give a frick about our plants.




we live in a historic district with a historic preservation league. they give "yard of the month" and "garden of the month" awards from spring till Christmas. it's all a bunch of mastabatoury back patting.

i know for a fact that multiple winners planted fake plants.

Mine look fake. They have kind of a blue tint to them. I would not order again.

Those are beautiful!!

Your neighbors are going to figure out they are fake in the winter when the trees are supposed to be dead but who cares?

Bought 2 a year or 2 ago and they’re sitting under my porch. Look great. I plan to move them in front of the garage eventually so they’ll see more sun exposure.
