FAQs, cleaning, and designing with tropicals:
- Most faux tropicals like our artificial green Elephant Ear stem are made with combinations of plastic, polyester, and wire
- Artificial stems ship flat, but in most cases bendable into more realistic shapes
- Occasionally dust your stems with a feather duster. You can wash your faux tropicals under running water, held upside down, briefly. Or wipe with a damp cloth. Do not submerge in water.
- The base stems are sometimes thick and wood-like. Trim with sturdy wire cutters
- You’ll want to design your tall tropical stems in tall containers. Clear glass is pretty, but baskets and rustic pottery work well, too
- Tropical foliage works well with tropical flowers. Feel free to create a bouquet
- Now the fun starts. Use as many tropical stems as will fit into your container
- For bouquets, cut, trim, and divide your faux tropicals into smaller parts. Sturdy wire cutters will cut through hard bases
- Consider this simple design rule for arrangements: Use 3, 5, and 7 stems to fill your vase.
- Enjoy!
