Amazon
Promising review: “I am redoing my bedroom in farmhouse style, and this little plant is so realistic. The price was fantastic too. Plants can be very costly, but this one wasn’t at all. I mean people ask me if it’s real or not when they visit. It fits right on the nightstand. The leaves are shiny and the pot is a light grey, which fits into the theme of the room. A plant can really make a room look a little more like home, and that’s what this plant did for me. Plus, I can’t keep a live plant alive for the life of me. With this plant, I don’t have to worry about it.” —Whit
