Why Buy Premium Instead of Bunnings Artificial Plants?

4th Oct 2022

Adding greenery to your interior and exterior décor has become the norm these days, and for good reason too. It can add freshness and vibrancy, bringing any dull space to life.

But does ‘greenery’ only mean live plants? Not at all! Gone are the days when fake plants couldn’t compare to their live counterparts. In fact, it’s common to find that many people even prefer artificial plants over real ones! Why do you think Bunnings Artificial Plants have become so popular?

Surprised? You won’t be once you see the many benefits of choosing fake plants over live plants:

Artificial plants need minimum care and maintenance

Live plants are not easy – not at all. If you don’t have a green thumb, you can just forget about using them to decorate your space. Live plants need regular maintenance – they need to be watered the right amount at the right time regularly, they need fertilising every now and then, and they need to be exposed to the right amount of sunlight too.

Another thing to keep in mind about live plants is that they grow. This means they need regular trimming and cleaning too.

Artificial plants need none of that kind of maintenance. Just dust them once in a few weeks, and they’ll be as good as new! You also don’t have to worry about their care when you’re traveling.

Artificial plants offer a better return on your investment

Yes, it’s true – high-quality fake plants are expensive. But when you see the larger scheme of things, they work out cheaper than real plants. Think about how much you save in terms of maintenance costs – the cost of time and effort, fertilisers, water, etc. Plus, there’s also the risk of them dying and needing replacement.

Durable artificial plants, like those from Artificial Plant Shop, last for many years. They’re a one-time investment – they come with no additional cost and give you a better bang for your buck!

We have lots of customers who start off purchasing industrial-quality fake plants like Bunnings Artificial Plants, but then later realise that it just doesn’t look like the real deal.

Fake plants always look amazing

With artificial plants, you never have to worry about seasonal changes. Unlike live plants, their leaves don’t dry and wilt and change appearance with every season. Fake plants can keep your décor consistent, avoiding any unexpected changes that might ruin the look and feel you had originally planned.

Artificial plants don’t attract pests as much as live plants do

Because they’re made of rubber, plastic and fabric, fake plants don’t actively attract any pests like bugs, arachnids, or insects as much as live plants do. Pests are usually attracted to the warmth and humidity of live plants. Cleaning your artificial plants every few weeks is generally enough to keep them pest-free.

Fake plants don’t come with the risk of allergies

Did you know that 1 in 5 Australians (more than 4.6 million people) suffer from pollen allergies every year? Many live plants can trigger pollen allergy in kids, adults and pets sharing the same space as them. Artificial plants don’t carry that risk and are an excellent choice for those who are sensitive to it.

Artificial plants offer a huge variety

Since they’re not limited by climate and other growth conditions, fake plants come in thousands of different shapes, sizes, colours and types! At Artificial Plant Shop, you’ll find over a hundred types of just artificial trees! You imagine the décor you want, and we’ll have the right faux plant to fit it.

Artificial plants can be placed in hard-to-reach places

Imagine placing a live plant on a high ledge or in a wall-mounted planter, or hanging it from the ceiling as a piece of décor. What a task it can be to water it, not to mention the muddy trails and mess it can create!

With fake plants, do as you wish. Since they don’t need to be watered or maintained regularly, place them in hard-to-reach places – as far and high as your décor imagination goes!

Considering their variety, durability, low maintenance, and cost-effectiveness, among other benefits, it only makes sense that you choose artificial plants over live plants.
