Reach Out And Touch A Female Dragon!

Reach Out And Touch A Female Dragon!

OMG!  Here’s something I didn’t know, the Dracaena plant gets its name from the Greek word “drakaina”, meaning a female dragon.  Wait, it’s not as bad as it sounds!  The connection between this popular plant and beast is the red gum produced when the stem is cut, and is said to resemble dragon’s blood.  I wonder who made that comparison!  A native of Africa and New Guinea, the dracaena is usually displayed as a bushy, multiple sprouted cane floor plant.  One of the most common Dracaena is the one more commonly known as the Corn Plant.  It has broad leaves with a dramatic, single variegated yellow stripe on each leaf.

The “Real Touch” Dracaena silk plants are the easiest to care for because there is no need to worry about the amount of sunlight it needs.  There is no need to worry about how often to water this beautiful carefree plant.  Mealy bugs and scale will never attack these life-like silk plants.  You’re free to display these beautiful plants anywhere in your home or office.  Not only will they make great focal points, silk plants are perfect for filling in gaps between furniture or as an accent in the corner of a room.  “Real Touch” artificial plants are perfect in color, texture and touch.

These artificial palm trees are sure to capture your heart with hundreds of ridged tipped leaves that sprawl outwards from a sturdy, rugged trunk for support.

I’ll bet you are now wondering exactly what makes this tree so unique?

The tree gets its exotic and tropical beauty from its native Southeast Asia and areas of the South Pacific. This palm does deliver that tropical beauty and exotic foliage that you have been searching for.

AKA, “Flamingo Flower” or “Boy Flower”

AKA, “Flamingo Flower” or “Boy Flower”

Those red pursed lips…now that I have your attention, I’d like to continue to introduce the plants I was about to describe.  The Anthurium plant is also known as the “Flamingo Flower” or “Boy Flower”, both descriptions refer to the structure of the plants spathe and spadix (grab your dictionary because I’m not going to explain).  The leaves may be shaped like a spatula, rounded or obtuse.  They may be borne erect or spreading in a rosette.  The leaves are usually fully glossy, but this can vary among species.  The flowers are often divided sexually, I’m still talking about a plant here, with a sterile band separating male from female flowers. The blooms on this plant are absolutely stunning against the glossy green leaves, and are sure to make a great focal point in any setting.

To ensure that you have a plant that is in constant bloom, you will want to select a beautiful “RealTouch” silk plant for the occasion.  Like I said in the beginning, those red pursed lips, referring to the bright red flowers accented by the lush green leaves of these breathtaking silk plants.  So go ahead and add that something extra to your home or office.  Remember, these are life-like silk plants, so there is no need to worry about allergens or toxins being produced by the plant.  And because they are “Real Touch” artificial plants, they look just as good as they feel.

Flourishing Ficus Trees

Flourishing Ficus Trees

Green, flourishing and beautiful, artificial Ficus trees are life-like trees made of top quality materials with natural or real wood trunks.  Silk Ficus trees are an exact replica of the live ones and are available in just as many sizes and shapes.  A lavish silk Ficus will enhance the ambiance and charm of any décor without the all of the dedication and care required to maintain its appearance.

If you have ever owned a live Ficus tree, or even know any who has, then you have noticed that the tree suffers quite a deal of leaf loss.  That’s because the Ficus tree does not like changes!  The care and environment must remain the same as much as possible.  In an ideal world this would be no problem.  But as life has it, we have our season changes, which will change the amount of light this sun loving tree receives. Though the Ficus will survive in lower levels of light, it will suffer a great deal of leaf loss with the transition.  So keep a broom or vacuum cleaner close at hand.  Or, simply preserve the beauty of the Ficus with a silk Ficus tree.

It’s Easier To Say Peace Lily

It's Easier To Say Peace Lily

Spathiphyllum!  I’ll bet you can’t say that fast 3 times!  Can you spell it with your eyes closed?  It’s so much easier to say and spell Peace Lily.  Can anyone tell me why the spathiphyllum is even called Peace Lily?  I certainly have no idea?  What I do know is that it is a beautiful plant that is even more beautiful when it blooms every few months displaying lovely white flowers. The live plant carries a long list of benefits, but is not the perfect plant for every home.  The peace lily is harmful if ingested by children and even more dangerous for dogs and cats.  And allergy sufferers, you will want to keep the meds and tissue close at hand.

Hold on, there is a solution!  For the safety of all occupants of your home or office, I’d like to suggest that you keep the peace with a stunning life-like peace lily.  Think of all of the benefits.  You’ll have a beautiful lush plant with shiny bold green leaves with delicate flowers that are constantly in bloom.  There will be no danger to your home or office occupants.  Really, what can be more peaceful than silk plants in bloom!
