Fake Plants Outdoors

Submitted by: Stewart Wrighter

When you think of artificial plants, you may think of a few silk plants in your home that you can look at and not have to worry about. You may not realize, however, that they can also be planted outdoors. When people drive by your home, the first thing they see is your yard. If you have a nice, pristine garden, it is a nice thing to look at. You may be the type of person who loves gardening. It does take a lot of work and dedication, but it can be fun as well. If you do not have the time or the energy to take care of plants outside, then you can always plant fake ones.

Planting fake flowers outdoors does not mean that you can just plant them and never look at your yard again. Weeds will still grow and the grass will need to be cut, unless you have fake grass too. You just have to make sure that it does not look unrealistic. These days, it is easy to find fake plants that have real qualities but you do not want people to be able to tell that your grass and flowers are fake, which could be tacky.

Planting these artificial plants is something that will take work, but not as much time as it would take to plant the real thing. With the real thing, you have to water them, switch them out after a certain period of time, and make sure that animals do not trample them or eat them. With fake ones, you can spend a day in your yard, clean it up and purchase the flowers you want, map out where you want them, and start planting. It does take some planning because you need to know where everything is going to be placed, but once you are done with that, the rest of it is fun. You can spread it out over a few days or get it all done in one.

This may not be the option for everyone or you can certainly do a mix of the real and fake plants, but it is definitely the easy way to go. You can have some fake flowers for looks and have a separate area where you have real ones or you could create a herb garden. It is fun to walk out your door, pick your own mint or basil and start cooking with it, but that also takes some work. As long as you only plant what you can take care of, you should be fine.

This is a very simple way of making the outside of your home looking nice, but it still does take some work. If you are lazy about it and think that because you planted fake flowers you never have to walk into your garden again, you are wrong. You could have someone take care of the maintenance for you, but it could also cost you a lot of money. Owning a home means maintaining it inside as well as the outdoors.
