Our Faux Green Aloe with spiky surface looks and feels like the real deal, but it isn’t. It’s an artificial plant that is easy to pop into indoor arrangements and succulent wreaths. 4-inch tall leaf area on a 3-inch stem. Pair with plants in the burgundy and pink tones.
FAQs, cleaning, and designing with artificial succulents:
- Most artificial succulents such as our faux green aloe are made with combinations of plastic, polyester, and wire
- Occasionally dust your plants with a feather duster. You can wash your gray aloe under running water, held upside down. Do not submerge in water.
- The base stems are often short and sturdy
- You’ll want to anchor your succulent plants in dry floral foam. For example, the brand name Sahara is made by Oasis. 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 decorative sand
- Now the fun starts. Insert as many faux succulents into your container as will fit
- Think about this simple design rule for arrangements: Use one thriller (the focal point succulent), one spiller (something that drapes over the side), and one upright succulent. Spiky succulents are popular.
- Enjoy!
