Orchids are great no matter if they are in a bouquet or used separately as a single stem. No matter how you use fake orchids, they will be a beautiful kind of decoration.

Cymbidium and Phalaenopsis orchids are the most popular silk orchids to buy. And the reason is probably that they are also the two most popular real orchid species. But Dendrobium and Vanda are popular orchids. And in contrast to real orchids you can buy all species all year round; even though they normally only are found in the summer in Indonesia.

The quality of faux orchids today is really astonishing. Instead of the old flowers made of clothes with plastic stems and leaves, you will get an amazing copy made of silk, nylon and other similar products that makes it very difficult to distinguish from the real thing.

And the fakeness is not only on the orchids. A transparent polymer-suspension can be used to simulate water in a vase. Or it can be sprayed on the orchids to simulate dew drops.

If you suffer from flower allergy, you will love fake orchids. Think a home full of flowers without the sneezing. Think about silk orchids.

Are you a plant-killer? Then faux orchids are the right thing for you. As long as you just dust them regular they will look beautiful for many years. And no one will know that you do not have green fingers.

Silk orchids can even handle very hot summers and cold winters. Normally heat or cold will make real orchids withers. With silk orchids it is not a problem. They are very sturdy and can take both the warm sunshine and the cold frost.

There is no doubt that artificial orchids look like real orchids. Sometimes they can even be more beautiful than the real ones. So no matter if you are buying silk orchids for home decoration or weddings, you will be glad that you bought the fake version.
