Artificial outdoor Palms

A tropical environment with the artificial palm

Palm trees grow mainly in the tropics and subtropics. They are therefore plants which remind us of sunny holidays. Often palm trees are placed by the swimming pool. This really gives you a holiday feeling. However, you don't have to travel far to admire palm trees. You can also enjoy beautiful palms in your own garden. The artificial palm is an excellent replacement for the real palm. You don't have to worry about the cold Dutch climate. Remember that real palms cannot grow in the Netherlands unless you choose some hardy palm trees. Unfortunately, these are not as attractive as the tropical varieties. Moreover, they require intensive care. Decorate your garden or swimming pool with an artificial palm. These are available in various heights. The artificial palm Phoenix is particularly popular. The pinnate leaves are placed on a real wooden trunk. This creates a realistic artificial palm which cannot be distinguished from the real thing. You immediately get a tropical holiday feeling.

The artificial palm for professional use

If you work in the hospitality industry or trade, the artificial palm tree offers added value. You can create an atmospheric space by using the artificial palm as decoration. On the terrace or at the entrance: the artificial palm has many possibilities. Not only will it make a welcoming impression, it will also improve the performance of your employees. A natural green environment provides peace of mind.

Artificial palm trees for indoors and outdoors

The artificial palm is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. Most artificial indoor plants discolour quickly when placed outside. Sunlight has a harmful effect on synthetics. Plastic plants discolour quickly under the influence of sunlight. They can also crumble or crack after a while. You can prevent this by choosing the special UV-resistant artificial palm for outside. These are not only resistant to sunlight but also to rain, wind and frost. Place the artificial palm outside on the terrace or in the conservatory. It is also very beautiful indoors near the window or on the windowsill. Incidental sunlight does not discolour the plant.

Artificial palms in various sizes

Every situation is different, so you should choose artificial plants that fit in well. The artificial palm Phoenix has a height of 170 centimetres. Its width is 140 centimetres. This is an artificial palm that deserves to be seen. Place it by the swimming pool, on the terrace or at the entrance. You can do this in the original pot, but you can also choose a heavier earthenware pot. This artificial palm has been chosen to use its original trunk. The pinnate leaves are provided with UV protection. If you prefer a different palm, then look at the artificial palm tree Cycas of 60 or 80 centimetres high. These fit nicely in a planter, next to your garden furniture or lounger or on an elevation. If you really want to stand out, put several small artificial palms together. Preferably choose an odd number, such as three or five. All artificial palms combine well with one of the many other plastic plants in the range.

Protection against UV light

All the artificial plants for outdoors are made of UV synthetic materials. These materials have been composed with care. They have also been extensively tested in the laboratory. These tests have shown that the material provides long-term protection against UV light. This light comes from the sun. It is precisely because of this light that plastic materials fade and discolour. After some time, they become brittle and can even break off. For longer preservation of your beautiful artificial palm, we have opted for UV protection. All synthetic plants have therefore been specially developed for outdoor use. Of course, you can also decorate your house with an artificial palm indoors.

Maintenance of the artificial palm

The artificial palm does not need much maintenance. You don't have to worry about fertilizing or watering. These plants never suffer from diseases or browning leaves. Your artificial palm will remain beautiful throughout the year. If the plant is placed outside, a shower of rain will wash the leaves clean. If you really think it's necessary, you can wipe the leaves with a damp cloth. This will effectively remove dust or other dirt. The artificial palm is frost-resistant. There is no need to bring it inside during the winter period. The synthetic leaves will not break off and the real wood can stand a good deal.

Choosing the right plant pot

Artificial palms are delivered including a black plastic pot. For indoors, you can start using them right away. The plastic pot is also suitable for outdoor use. However, it can be quite windy in the Netherlands. Please take this into account. If necessary, you can choose to make the pot heavier. You can also buy a nice over pot. A heavy pottery pot is available in many models and colours. For a sleek appearance, choose a square planter. The artificial palm stands in a stately manner. In most cases, dark colours are chosen. This looks just a bit tighter. If you put the artificial palm in a light-coloured pot, remove dirt from the pot regularly. That way, your terrace, entrance or garden will always look tropical.
