Those Wicker Park florals for sale today

I kill flowers and may have to think on these for down the road.  So pretty and with my brown thumb, good idea.

Re: Those Wicker Park florals for sale today

I was looking at those also!  DH and I aren't able to do much planting these days.  And the animals are always digging stuff up and/or eating things!  I'm mulling it over!  Wondering if they look really fake when you see them for real???

If I knew a 40 mile an hour wind wouldn't blow them away, I'd consider them for two planters on each side of our garage.

I live in a high-rise and the wind is wild.  I can imagine these flying away and landing, bouncing down the road. I had a wreath fly away and we watched it roll down the street like a tire

Yes, I can see these turning into tumbleweeds.  They're must be for indoor use only?

Oh no - you can use them indoors.  I would go for the 10inch in an urn-y looking container.  

 

I could see them on a dining room table - they would really make a statement ....

I have them in purple and I love them. They come with stakes to help keep them grounded. I put them in two old front door urns.

 

Last summer I had an Instacart delivery person tell me how beautiful they were. She said how do you keep them looking so perfect? I said well they're fake. She was so surprised.

 

Even though I'm spending only on necessities another set is tempting. I'd love to put one in a whiskey barrel with faux succulents surrounding it. My town has watering restrictions every summer and I'm not into gardening at all. Plus we have deer and lots of other animals.
