Silk plants are very realistic and there is no better way to adorn that special area in your home or office than having a silk orchid arrangement. Matter of fact, these silk beauties will last a life time and they are very easy to maintain. There are several species to choose from and there is no crime in having two or three different species decorating your home or office. One of the most popular silk orchids is the Phalaenopsis orchid with its outstanding blooms standing high and proud. They have a very exotic feel to them and everyone that sees them will undoubtedly have to smell or touch them to realize they are not of the real variety. There are several colors to choose from with these silk orchid arrangements and you will not be sorry you got it.

One of the last things that are normally put into place is the trees, plants and flowers, which can really make your theme come to life. For example, if you want an oriental atmosphere, you want plants that are connected with the oriental culture. There are many exotic flowers and plants that can work with this, such as the Japanese Ficus Tree. Now, it might be that you are not the type that can nurture live plants along and end up having to replace them time and again. Well, don’t worry because you can use artificial plants. And, yes, there is a silk Japanese Ficus tree along with many exotic silk plants, such as silk orchids, representing high virtues and elegance. Orchid blossoms in the spring bring an air of high class respectfulness in the oriental culture. Completing your décor atmosphere can be something that will last for several years and be easy to maintain during that time.

Since that time, I have seen several silk plants that were in the artificial water and I fell in love with that concept. Orchids are such an elegant and yet bold flower and the silk orchids capture that realism and is a great piece to add to any décor. There are several colors and, of course, several different varieties that look so real and vibrant. This story was shared with me by a close friend and yes, these silk orchids in artificial water are very real looking and are enjoyed by many people around the world.

But we are unable to have these plants in our homes due to the runny noses and itchy eyes. We have found an unbelievable replacement so that we can enjoy and have these same plants decorating our décor in our home. We have heard many good comments about how real they look and what they add to our décor. I do have a couple of silk flower arrangements, but I have more flowering silk plants and potted ones like you would live plants. That is probably an added plus for realism. For us and so many other sufferers of the allergy problem, there is a wonderful way to enjoy and relax at home and that is with my favorite silk orchids and other silk flowering plants.

In the top group of varieties, you will find the Vanda, Phalaenopsis and the Cymbidium. You will find that these will also have more choices of colors. Within the choices of orchids, you will then want to look at shape for you particular tastes for your décor. Orchids come in tall thin flowers and also in a full round flower. Varieties in the taller and thin group will be the Cymbidium, Vanda and Spider orchids. In the rounder and fuller group, there will be the Cattleya, Dendrobium and the Oncidium. Now to complete the decorating choice, you want the container to complement these beautiful silk orchids; and when you have found that, you have hit a home run.

This plant is available in a taller arrangement with excellent fullness that can grace a larger area with a bold but yet soft statement. For the smaller areas throughout the home, you can add the smaller size orchid and still get the elegant touch that is expected with this silk flower arrangement. Some people may not believe that the bathroom is a good place to add this kind of elegance. Most full bathrooms have a shower and a bathtub, and by adding a nice silk orchid arrangement and some green silk plants on the ledges of the bathtub, you have added a nice deep elegance to your décor. The smaller areas of the home can add so much and give a lasting beauty to the décor.

Next you have several different shapes in the realistic silk orchids from the full and round dendrobium orchid, arching phalaenopsis orchid and the smaller flowering dancing lady orchids. These different shapes come in handy when you are trying to fill those special places in your décor. Even in the kitchen the silk orchid stands proud with the robust look and also adds class and boldness. The leaves vary from one species to another but are all a great added feature and just plain makes you feel comfortable and relaxed. The versatile silk orchids will add a touch of elegance to any décor.

The Bird of Paradise or the Heliconia Lobster Claw has both an exotic and a tropical flare while making up some very nice arrangements. I think I would like to go with a touch of a lighter feeling and the orchids are great for just that. I want something that is going to be elegant while complimenting the décor and that will last for a long time.

With that in mind, I would go with artificial orchids; and there are many types of silk orchids to choose from. Most of them can be found in craft stores and in some floral shops as well. The floral shops are dedicated to the art of the arranging exotic flowers including the beautiful silk orchid. Just to name a few, there is the Dancing Lady silk orchid, Phalaenopsis silk orchid and the Cattleya silk orchid. There are many more available. All of these have a light and delicate look to them and can be made up into great arrangements.

The beautiful live orchid plant is very delicate and requires lots of attention and time to survive. This is one reason that I like the silk flowers; and the realism is just plain outstanding. We have seen this in all aspects of the plant from the base roots, leaves and the stalks of this exotic plant to the exquisite flower. When put together in a simple but elegant arrangement, you will be able to enjoy the orchid in any kind of climate.

So, remember when you want an exotic and delicate look in a nice floral arrangement, it is hard to beat the elegant look of the orchids. Enjoy and have fun with your floral décor.

I have had over the past 20 years or more some kind of silk flowers in my office and it has made the workplace feel a little bit warmer, and in some way it sure helps me to relax in some degree. I’m not what you would call a real flower guy but I do know that when I have not had a plant there, my office just doesn’t seem to be together.

When you are looking for a plant for the office area, there are a couple things that you should keep in mind. Greenery is something that will go with any décor so there is not to much to worry about except maybe size. You don’t want to overwhelm the area and you also don’t need to take up area that you may need for workspace. I have a hanging ivy basket over a filing cabinet area, which is not in the way and it adds so much. The floor space is pretty much taken up so the only other area is on the corner of my desk and a small silk orchid fits just fine

If you have a customer waiting area, please don’t leave them out in the cold. Think of what kind of clientele you have and if you have more female clients maybe an extra silk flower arrangement or two wouldn’t be bad. Again you want to use your floor space wisely and don’t think for a minute that the silk floral décor is a waste. The properly shaped silk tree is very popular but again don’t overwhelm.

My personal feelings are that I want my complete décor to be comfortable feeling and my silk plants to be of good quality and the look of realism. I am real and I treat my customers with the best quality service and that is the whole idea. Your personality should be shown in all aspects of your business.
