After my house plants quickly withered while I was away on my holidays last month, I was keen to give this artificial plant a try. The idea of having the aesthetic benefits of a plant without the regular maintenance and uncertain prospects inherent with a live plant certainly appealed to me.
The item arrived well packaged, with outer packaging just as displayed in the pictures. The plant itself also looks exactly as it does in the picture, with pale yellow flowers with pink tips. The entire plant including flowerpot stands at around 15cm high, as advertised. And while in person this is a little more petite than I was expecting, the overall effect is cute. Viewing from up close, it is clear that the leaves in particular are artificial, being as they are quite plasticky in their appearance and also a rather bright shade of green though from a little distance this is not particularly noticeable.
In all, I find myself very pleased with my first foray into artificial flowers, and feel encouraged to investigate further and maybe buy a few of Closer To Natures other available colours and styles. For now, I have placed this flowerpot on my desk at work, and it certainly helps to brighten up the place. At such a small size, though, it could really fit anywhere I imagine it could be particularly useful for decorating smaller rooms in the home.

Brought this for my mum. She loved it. Good quality.
