An occasional wipe-down of leaves with a mild cleaning solution is easy. Maybe 3 or 4 times a year, depending on your climate. It helps you rid the dulling film that accumulates. 

  • Keep special microfiber cloths just for this task. As they get dirty, rinse/clean them.
  • It's very dusty in the Sonoran Desert, where we live. I like to make my own cleaning solution. You can make it too, using 50/50 proportion: white vinegar to distilled water.
  • They do have Prepared Plant Cleaning Solutions, if you'd prefer.

2: Long Lasting

A fake palm tree plant is quite durable. With proper care, these faux plants can last
many years. As a rule, no need to replace them!

deteriorate over time. Imitation palm tree versions can keep looking fresh & attractive. Serving you well for years down the road.

PLUS FLEXIBILITY FOR DECOR

Consider that Fake Palm Plants can be easily moved around.

Can't do that with real palm plants that you planted into the soil.

Yes, real palms can be transplanted. But depending on lots of circumstances, not particularly easily done. Or as quickly. Or multiple times as your styling decor progresses.

Whenever you want to change your landscaping or interior arrangements, no worries! It's easy to freshen up your home decor according to current needs.

OUR "NEON" PALM

For instance, we have fake palms. One is styled as a neon light. But that's fake too, as it's not really a neon light! 😏

It regularly sits on a small stand in our gathering area before exiting to our backyard. We turn it on, when we want subtle lighting & atmosphere in that room. For playing a game, or talking with friends/family around the round table there.

Another Idea

Buy a Fake Palm Tree plant that's clustered together. That look makes for a lush tropical atmosphere!

Some Artificial Palms Have LED Lights built-in. How cool is that! Making them an energy efficient, decorative, yet subtle lighting solution at your home.

4: No Allergens For You!

How Do They Affect YOU, As Pollen Enters the Air?

You probably know this, but have you thought about this advantage!

Of course, fake palm trees don't produce pollen. Bringing a fake palm plant indoors, rather than a natural palm, rids you of palmy allergy issues. Inside your own home!

The same with Fake Outdoor Palms. Go for some type of outdoor artificial palm tree instead of traditional plantings.

OH - THOSE NASTY ALLERGY SYMPTONS!

You & your family won't have to worry about bothersome allergies. Avoid that sneezing and congested noses.

I know we feel for those of you suffering from those plant allergies.

Bill & I both have irritating allergies to various plant pollens. They make us sneeze, have watery or dry eyes (depending), give us sinus headaches & make us cough. Hope that wasn't TMI!

Do They Work Well for You?

Real palm trees can cause these allergic reactions. Maybe for you! So if you want that tropical aura for your home, getting fake palm trees avoids that.

DUST/ODORS GET YOU SNIFFLING?

Your allergy tends more to dust or odor related?

Then think of the fertilizer treatments (could be stinky or dusty!!) real palms need. Artificial palms don't need fertilizing. Or any type of special treatments involving soil.

Just dust them lightly, as you would do for your furniture. To keep that powdery irritant under control.

If you're looking for an allergy-friendly, tropically influenced home decor solution...

Synthetic Palm Trees Are The Perfect Choice!

5: Budget Friendlier

It's true, the initial investment might be more than real palms. That could be variable, though, depending on your choices for either one.

CONTINUOUS COSTS

First the artificial palm tree price you choose can fit with your own spending plan. Plus, remember over time, a fake palm tree plant turns out to be more cost efficient for your budget.

Artificial palms have no ongoing costs like water or fertilizers. Expenses for natural palms which you won't have. That can make them easier on your budget in the long run.

Just imagine planting a real palm tree. The ongoing maintenance it will need. The watering, the fertilizer, etc. Never mind adding in the cost of buying the plant.

CHEAP MANAGEMENT

You'll have no such essentials when you purchase artificial palm trees. They don't need any special care or treatment. Just a little cleaning solution a few times a year (very cheap!).

So all in all, they're the budgeter's choice.

6: Fake Palm Tree for Outdoor Events

You don't want to buy fake palm trees to use indoors or outdoors? For regular usage, that is.

Have you thought about Artificial Palm Trees For Outdoors during the holidays? Or maybe for a particular party you're planning. Like a luau!

FESTIVE HOLIDAYS

For the holiday season, use one of the pre-lit fake palm trees. Types that can be used outdoors as Palmy Christmas Decorations in your landscape.

Or for an Indoor Palm-Style Christmas Decoration. 

Or we know some palm tree aficionados who use them indoors in place of a pine. Using the most realistic artificial palm trees they can find. Decorating them with tropical ornaments. Then using that as their Christmas Tree or Hanukkah Bush.
