Has anyone tried any of the Wicker Park line? How is the quality? I don't usually get that excited about faux succulents in planters, since they are so readily available everywhere.
But this ram is so cute, and a more substantial size than you often see:
Something about the way his little horns curl back on his head, ha. They also offer a cute owl and elephant, but for some reason, the ram took my fancy. Unfortunately, the "jelly bean succulents" are in the ram planter, and to me, they are not quite as realistic as others. They have a bit of a seam in them, that real ones wouldn't have.
The succulents in the other two animals look a smidge more realistic to me. I'm probably over-thinking this!
It's funny with faux succulents. Some are practically fool-proof, and some, just not as good....

I saw this presentation and was impressed. I didn't order though but the elephant was my favorite. They seem to be very good quality items and I do like the idea of faux succulents.
I do have succulents in my house which are thriving. When it is warm, I put them out and they love the hot sun and humidity (unlike me). One of the succulents is old and I almost lost it . I saw some green on it and put it outside and it revived.
The planters are tempting and very pretty especially knowing they are care free! I hope to see more items from the Wicker Park line.

I'm not surprised you have a green thumb with your real, living succulents, @spiderw ! Smart of you to switch them out for reviving little sun baths outdoors...
That reminds me, another thing I like about these little Wicker Park planter arrangements, is that they said in the presentation that they are completely "indoor- outdoor". That suggests they are well made, and increases the versatility when you can move them inside and outside.

Yes, I think these planters and faux plants would survive the cold winter months and the hot sunny ones. I know many items are indoor/outdoor but it depends on the weather and conditions and if the item is of good quality. Some of my indoor/outdoor purchases from the Q lost their color over time and some cracked. I agree the well make items will survive the outdoors!

I checked out all the animals and they are very cute....and would be good for my patio during the hot summer months too.....no watering required!

Yeah, I love that part about it too, @Spurt -- ultimate low maintenance!

@Oznell I have this planter coming from Etsy. Silly, but it makes me smile.

Oh, that is so cute, @yellowrose ! And such a cheerful grace note for spring. I really like planters like yours that have that "stone-look" finish to them too-- it just seems to meld so handsomely with succulent type plants...
As for me, I dithered, but today I broke down and ordered-- what else-- the elephant, of course!

It was hard choosing, since I like owls, and rams are so strikingly graphic, but this little guy won me over-- and I like his selection of plants:
