You’ll want to use these artificial Dracaena stems with their plump trunks and feathery foliage in at least groups of three, perhaps installed at different heights for best effect. 21 inches tall, spreads to 6 inches wide in foliage.
FAQs, cleaning, and designing with artificial greenery:
- Even though they are referred to as silk, most faux greenery stems such as our artificial Dracaena are made with combinations of plastic, polyester, and wire
- Occasionally dust your floral arrangements with a feather duster. You can wash artificial plants under running water, held upside down. Do not fully submerge in water.
- The base stems are overly long and sturdy. Feel free to trim the length with wire cutters
- If you make a permanent floral arrangement in a traditional container, you’ll want to anchor your greenery in dry floral foam. Dry floral foam does not hold water and offers a sturdy base to hold your plants
- You may hot glue your floral foam to your container interior, although if you’re not mailing or moving your arrangement, it’s not necessary
- Cover your floral foam with dry moss, pebbles, or bark
- Now the fun starts. Insert as many faux plants into your container as will fit
- Artificial greenery and stems ship flat. You’ll want to bend and shape them on arrival
- A common design rule is to use quantities in odd numbers, such as 3, 5, and 7 stems per flower variety.
- Enjoy!
