Just a disclaimer… artificial plants will still likely look fake up close. Some plant varieties look better as fake plants than others so bear this in mind when choosing which ones to buy.
Generally speaking, when it comes to fake plants, the reality is… you get what you pay for! If you want them to look real, you might just need to fork over that extra cash to get a really good one. On the plus side though, at least you know it won’t die on you 😉
1. Temple & Webster
Hands down, our choice for the best place to buy artificial indoor plants is Temple & Webster. From the usual monstera, fiddle leaf fig and orchid options, Temple & Webster has the biggest range of artificial indoor plants. We even spied a few full-blown trees in their range, too!

7. Freedom
Freedom has an impressive range of artificial plants, but our faves were their large range of flower stems and sprays. They stock quite a few varieties we hadn’t spotted anywhere else. And they often have sales if you want to hold out and nab yourself a bargain.
