While artificial flowers may immediately conjure images of plastic, cheap-looking stems nestled on your grandma's bathroom windowsill, that is no longer the case. Forget what you thought you knew, because the artificial flower industry is really blooming (see what we did there?).
Lockdown sparked a trend for bringing the outside in with a ‘more-is-more’ attitude towards indoor plants and flowers in our homes. But for those of us who wanted to embrace the interior trend but didn't (and still don't) have green fingers, faux floral arrangements that look just like the real thing have been our secret to achieving the look. Think: hydrangea, eucalyptus, orchid, and peony artificial bouquets that never wilt and can be enjoyed all year round.
The best indoor plants to brighten up your space, because becoming a 'plant mum' could help reduce anxiety
Gallery30 PhotosFaux flowers can totally transform your space. As with dried flowers, they're incredibly low-maintenance, often needing only a light dusting. Look for stems or arrangements made from latex, silk, clay and plastic moulds, which will withstand all indoor conditions and ensure your artificial flowers last for years. Best of all, they won't irritate any allergies or be a hazard for toddlers or pets to knock over.
Sure, nothing beats receiving a fresh bunch of blooms straight through your letterbox thanks to the many flower delivery services now operating. But if you're after something that will last longer than a couple of weeks, artificial flowers solve that problem nicely. They're also an excellent gift that won't die pronto, so if you're looking for the best Mother's Day gift, want to send a cute gift for grandmas or you're hoping to win some brownie points with a Mother-in-Law gift, we've rounded up the best artificial flowers for decoration.
