My Faux Orchid Search

Faux Orchid - homescapes Tall Cream Artificial Orchid in Stone Pot

homescapes Tall Cream Artificial Orchid in Stone Pot

At the start of the month I shared on IG that I was really pleased with myself that all of my pants and trees made it through the winter.  Since moving in a year ago we now have six trees on the balcony, three regular plants, two hanging plants, and one indoor tree. Woah, I actually have never counted before this moment and that is a lot of plants which I will be sure to feature in a new apartment update post.  But today, I need your help on my faux orchid quest.  While I am not a fan of fake plants the hallway of our apartment is super dark and has absolutely no natural light.  I have tried to even to put a low light plant there but it nearly died because no light and low light are not the same thing.

Thus I have decided a faux plant is really want we need for this table. And thus, my search.  Last week I got an email from Wayfair called and that kickstarted my search again.  When looking I was actually floored that there were options that were more than £800 or $1,000 and that is just not in my budget.  (In case you don’t believe me – is £200, this one from Bloomsbury Market is £510, and is £642. Thus I have looked at options with a cut off with £50, as a max price, which I even I think that is a bit high. Here are the prettiest faux orchid options I have found within my budget:

This search for a faux orchid is also tricky because the website pictures look gorgeous but it is hard to tell the material and quality.  For instance, I have seen ones look gorgeous in person but waxy in person so I have only chosen ones with dozens of high reviews.

Which is your favorite of these faux orchid options?

    So many pretty options.

    My favorite is the tall white one on the kitchen counter, it looks really real!

    I vote for one of the white ones, they tend to look more real.

    My wife loves orchids.

    I will to her one of these. Most of them look so fake that I would never dare get her one.

    I know what you mean about dark spaces, we have a powder room like that.

    It really brightens the space up I am sure.

    Some of these look like really terrific fakes.

    The ones that are so cheesy looking I can’t believe people really buy and display them in their homes.
