Silk Orchids – The Perfect Floral Accent
When it comes to adding an inviting piece to the decor, you cannot go wrong with a beautiful silk orchid. There are many ways to spruce up the interior of the home or office and one of them includes exotic silk orchid arrangements no matter what the variety or species. When the time comes to remember someone with a gift, you will be hard pressed to find a more perfect gift that can be enjoyed more, over such a long time. Yes, a beautiful silk orchid arrangement can last 10 to 20 years or even more with minimal maintenance. What type of silk orchid can I get? There are several silk orchid types available and several retail places that have natural looking silk orchid arrangements available. When it comes to adding a great accent piece to your decor, you want it to be vibrant and have a high standard of quality. Avoiding the big box type stores may be a good idea, just for the quality and lasting ability of your accent piece.
As far as the types of silk orchids, you can find Dancing Lady silk orchids, Cattleya silk orchids, Phalaenopsis silk orchids and several others that are created for an authentic and realistic look. Why would you want to use these realistic silk orchids? There are harder plants to grow than the delicate orchid, but there are still many things that you have to do and watch in the care of orchids. When you water the orchid, you need to take it outside and run a good amount of water in the pot, and after it drains through the hole in the bottom of the pot, you can take it back inside. The orchid like’s sunlight (as many plants do) so don’t ever put it in the north window and the south is okay if you defuse the sunlight properly. Otherwise, the east or west window is the best. I’m sure if you are the green thumb person and you have the adequate amount of time, you are in good shape. Now for those with a different color thumb and less time on your hands to worry about the feeding, trimming and re-potting of plants, the silk orchid arrangements is a beautiful and elegant addition to any decor. Is it possible to do my own silk flower orchid arrangements?

This will also give you the ability to customize that special gift for that dear friend or loved one. Do silk orchids look real? There was a time several years ago that the artificial plants were very hard looking and when people would see them, the first words out of their mouth was “that is fake as can be”. With the vast improvements in manufacturing, the “fake” word as it use to be used is all but gone. A vast majority of people now have to go up and touch or even smell to make sure what they are looking at.
They have “real touch” silk orchids and that means just what it says, you touch it and it feels real. How to care for the natural looking Cattleya or any other species of silk orchid arrangements? The care of the beautiful Cattleya orchid is so simple and easy. As you are doing your normal dusting around the office and home, be sure not to miss the silk plants. If this is done on a regular basis, a deeper cleaning will not be needed except once or twice a year. They also have cleaners that come in spray cans or bottles that are simple to use and are available in most craft stores. These are very easy to use and with a simple spray, you are done.
