Realistic LARGE Artificial Topiary Ball Plants, Cone Bay Boxwood Spiral Trees
At LeafT Design we specialise in ultra-realistic artificial plants. Our topiary trees are fantastic value and look very realistic (compare the close up pictures of ours to some available and you will certainly see the difference). All of these artificial trees come potted in weighted plastic pots and are ready to display immediately. You can easily put these into a larger planter as we have shown in some of the pictures - it makes them look even more impressive.
Some of the designs come with decorative planters (see details below). The stems are wired on most of the plants (the ball ones are fixed so not wired) and these can be shaped to your requirements where applicable. All are suitable for indoor or outdoor use. If used outdoors we recommend placing in a sheltered position and protecting from extremes of weather. Trees are not UV stabilised unless specifically stated so we recommend spraying with UV protection spray if required (available from DIY and camping shops or online).
Useful information / FAQ on our plants and trees. We know a lot about realistic artificial plants! Whether you want to know how to choose a suitable plant or how to secure your artificial trees we have the answers. We have put details of our most commonly asked questions below.
The following is general information about all of our plants. For specific information on the plant for sale please refer to the information at the top of this page. How do I know what size plant I need for my space? All our plants are measured at their highest points.The actual height will vary depending on how you arrange the leaves in the case of the wired stem plants. An additional helpful tip when you are measuring for outdoor artificial topiaries is that additional height can be added by purchasing a larger planter then standing the plant on bricks inside it before covering with gravel or similar. Examples of this can be seen in our photographs on the topiary pages. How can I make my artificial tree or plant look real? This is a really key question for many of our customers.
Our plants are high grade and ultra-realistic but the key to making them look absolutely real is to spend some time dressing out the leaves and checking the plant from all angles. Some plants are fixed and need no arrangement but others are wired allowing you to shape them precisely to your space. You can try the following. Unpack the plant and stand it on a flat surface, removing outer packaging and plastics. Starting at the bottom, carefully fold out the leaves. To get a natural curve on the leaves carefully hold the tip in one hand and the stem in the other and run you hand along the curve to bend it gently into shape. Look at the plant from all angles making sure there are no gaps and your plant is well dressed out and ready to pot. Put the plant inside a larger planter. You can stand it on bricks to raise the height inside.Cover the base of the pot with a layer of ornamental gravel or soil. We have some customers who have planted real moss at the base of their artificial plants to make them look more realistic.
