Good video. I like fake plants because they don't attract flies, and I find it funny to (try to) trick guests 🙂(And they can be stored and reused at another time.) A suggestion: a video about how to choose pots for fake plants. In particular pot size.

I love how we are trying to avoid to maintain plants and not kill ‘em but inevitably we still gotta maintain the fake plants with the dust 😅 I love it! We can’t win guys we can’t win lol thank you though! This helped me 😊

Fake plant are way more costly because of repeat use. Thanks for the tips.

The problem with fake plants for me is not that guests will find out they're fake, but that *I* will always know that they're fake. :) I'd rather find low maintenance plants or find a painting/art pieces that depicts plants and flowers. I do like your idea of mixing fake and real though.

[@EshiJay]

Totally agree

The use of plastic poses a significant environmental problem. Plastic is a synthetic material that does not decompose, meaning that it persists in the environment indefinitely. Furthermore, the disposal of plastic often involves incineration, which releases toxic gases and pollutants into the air. Alternatively, plastic waste is often dumped into landfills, where it will remain for hundreds of years, contributing to soil and water contamination. What’s more, faux and artificial plants are dangerous to animals. Yes they may look nice. But environmentally you may as well just pour petrol on your lawn and set it alight.

My mom has the greenest fingers ever! She is Te Fiti in real life! And I can kill a plant by just looking at it 😫 Having moved out of my parents' home, I really wanted to get plants but was so scared of digging plant graves within the first week. This video found me at the right time! Your suggestions are amazing! Cant wait to add these to my apartment!!

[@EshiJay]

Aw I'm so glad! Good luck with your plant journey (and not killing more plants than necessary 😂)

This video feels like it was produced professionally. This video was a great help, as in finding the appropriate fake plant for my work/gaming setup.

[@EshiJay]

Thank you so much!!💙

A way to make a shiny plant more real looking is by giving it a light spray of a clear matte acrylic spray.

[@EshiJay]

Ooo this is a great idea!

[@rosepearlcourt]

thank you

[@Trgn]

Awesome great tips. Thank you.

[@EshiJay]

Thank you for watching!!💙

WAIT WAIT! One more tip: If it has Spanish moss or gravel in the pot, get rid of it! Replace it with dry potting soil for a far more realistic effect. Your friends may accidentally water it for you.

[@EshiJay]

😂😂 I just imagined someone finding out the hard way that a plant is fake

[@L_i_o_n_e_s_s]

Great idea about the potting soil, thank you! I had spanish moss and it all looked terribly fake.

DOES ANYONE ELSE HAVE THIS PROBLEM???? I came here because I’m considering selling a of my house plants and just buying fake because I’ve tried EVERY trick in KZbin to get rid of my little flies infestation and it’s so bad I’ve tried for weeks many remedies to rid them and I can’t take it anymore!!! From big sprays to yellow sticker paper to watering them in been oil and Dawn soap and hydrogen peroxide and no matter what they keep infesting my plants by the hundreds. I can’t even watch tv without shooing them away from my face every 5 seconds. I live in Los Angeles in a dry place I just am giving up at this point. I hate the idea of fake plants but I love the LOOK of plants in the home for decoration so I’m on the edge of switching 😓😓😓😓😓

[@EshiJay]

I've had that!! Maybe not as bad as what you're describing, but I found Ceylon cinnamon and dusted it all over the soil of my plants and it seemed to help!

[@theamethyst93]

I just don’t have a lot of natural light and I’ve killed too many plants trying to find ways around this

[@EshiJay]

Have you tried snake plants? They're typically good in low light. But a good fake plant may be your best bet 😄
