Why Silk Orchids Are Better Than The Real Thing

Monday, December 14th, 2009

Anyone will say that orchids are one of the most stunning flowers on earth. Even people who are not interested in flowers will look at the orchids and see the beauty. But it is also very difficult to take care of orchids. That is the reason why many people prefer fake orchids instead.

There are almost no occasion where fake orchids cannot be used. They are great in a pot or a vase in your home; either as a bouquet or just a single stem. But they are probably even greater used for wedding decorations. No matter what you are planning to use the orchids for, they will give a beautiful impression.

Cymbidium and Phalaenopsis orchids are the most popular silk orchids to buy. And the reason is probably that they are also the two most popular real orchid species. But Dendrobium and Vanda are popular orchids. And in contrast to real orchids you can buy all species all year round; even though they normally only are found in the summer in Indonesia.

The quality of faux orchids today is really astonishing. Instead of the old flowers made of clothes with plastic stems and leaves, you will get an amazing copy made of silk, nylon and other similar products that makes it very difficult to distinguish from the real thing.
