An artificial ficus tree can add a touch of nature and really enhance a room's decor. Here are some ideas for adding the look of a flourishing tropical paradise to your home:
When trying to choose the perfect silk ficus tree for your home, you might need some help. We compiled a handful of the questions most commonly asked by customers like you.
In keeping with industry standards, any artificial ficus that comes with a pot is measured from the bottom of the pot to the outstretched tip on the top. This simply means that if you point the longest leaf or frond straight up, you measure the farthest most measurement. When we say a silk ficus tree is 6 feet high, we are measuring from the bottom of the container or tree trunk to the top of the tree, extending the longest leaf or frond as we measure. When we specify that a faux ficus tree is 37 inches wide, we measure the plant with the leaves or stems extended to the sides. Shaping these plants and trees will reduce the overall size.
Please note that plant and ficus silk tree heights are approximate — because of their handmade nature, taller plants may vary a few inches in height. Floral arrangements are more exact, as these are pre-arranged and do not change shape after being created.
Good news! We stock many outdoor ficus trees specifically created for exterior use. They are designed to never fade or deteriorate outdoors and are UV-resistant, so your decorating options are virtually unlimited.

Our other silk ficus trees CAN be used as outdoor decoration, but it is not advised to leave them in direct sunlight for any significant amount of time. This includes direct sunlight coming in through an indoor window. Most of our artificial ficus trees are made out of materials that will eventually fade like any other fabric when left out in the sun but they will last longer if put in the shade or on a porch where direct sunlight isn't a factor. Heavy rain and wind may also knock the fronds out of trunks or the materials may absorb rainwater causing items to look wilted and/or fall over. Be sure to always take proper care of your outdoor ficus tree to extend its life.
