FAQs and designing our Prayer Plant:
- Most faux tropicals like our large Prayer Plant are made with combinations of plastic, polyester, and wire
- Artificial stems ship flat but are 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 wide-spreading tropical stems in wide jars and containers. Clear glass is pretty, but baskets and rustic pottery work well, too
- Feel free to use outside in protected spaces such as patios and porches that do not get direct sun.
- Now the fun starts. Use as many tropical stems as will fit into your container
- Feel free to cut, trim, and divide your faux tropicals into smaller parts. Sturdy wire cutters will cut through hard bases
- Enjoy!
