I love fresh plants and flowers especially for decorating my home. With the busy lives that we have, I can never keep plants or flowers alive for long. While we have a yard, I don’t consider myself to have a “green thumb” for growing plants and flowers. I recently just bought some silk flowers for my vases so I could use them as decor in my home.
This past summer, a co-worker of mine gave us all some of her aloe plant because she didn’t need the whole thing. Growing up, we always had aloe plants in the home and my parents had green thumbs. My co-worker told me that they were low maintenance and that I couldn’t kill it. Well, guess what? I did…… I tried to revive it and some of it looks okay so I’ve re-potted it and have tried to take better care of it.
Silk Plants for Me!
I’ve decided that it would be best for me to consider using silk plants for indoor decor since I obviously don’t have a green thumb. So, I have a few topiary plants in my home that people think are real and I love that they are low maintenance and always look good!
I’ll be honest, I worried that these plants would look fake and they would sell me out. However, they’re the complete opposite and I’ve gotten a ton of compliments on them. They’re in nice ceramic pots and have a nice layer of ‘soil’ to keep them looking perfect every day.
Great for Events, Home or Business
You don’t have to spend a ton on plants and flowers if you don’t have a green thumb. Consider silk plants from HedgeScapes to help you decorate your home. You can even use these for your business or for an event. You can even decorate the outside of your home with these plants — check out this artificial boxwood hedge! There are so many to choose from!! Check out their whole selection HERE.
I can see these items being used for events like weddings or gatherings of sorts. They’re silk so they can be reused multiple times too.
If you have a ‘brown thumb’ like me, silk plants are the way to go. Check out HedgeScapes for more ideas!

I love having plants! I have actually never used silk plants before, but I love the way that they look! They have definitely come a long way since the cheap, plastic plants that we used to have when I was a kid. :) Thanks for sharing!

I love the silk plants for indoors! I would love to have real ones inside, but I'm doing good keeping my kids fed and the house clean! I think I would forget to water them. lol! They look classy and easy to clean.
