Orchid Plants
Pluck not the wayside flower;
It is the traveler's dower.
-William Allingham
To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven’
(Ecclesiastes ch, iii) Artificial plants and flowers have come to stay. Modern man is mired in hurry and ever growing work. He finds no time as our ancestors, whose world went on a leisurely
pace. Neither the wandering pleasure of people like Wordsworth, Frost or Hardy nor their involvement with the countryside is possible for the 21st century urban dweller, unless he takes it up as an adventure.
The inability to maintain the natural greenery has made artificial greenery a welcome
alternative. The artificial trees, plants and flowers so resemble the natural that a new comer may find it difficult to distinguish. They come as silk and preserved varieties. Orchids are the
most loved ones and the artificial orchid plants and flowers find way into the drawing rooms and offices.
Present day concern for eco preservation and the modern approach to health exclude natural
greenery in homes and public places. Natural greenery requires care. Its watering and pruning need special knowledge. Pests are attracted to natural blooms due to the fragrance of the pollen
and insects which are attracted by the soggy soil and nectar may cause allergy. They shed leaves, the flowers wither and pesticides, insecticides add to the problems. ‘Growmores’ are
to be added and the seeping out water may smudge the places in an ugly manner. They take time to grow and it is impossible to change their arrangements as and when we wish.
The homes, offices, restaurants, seminar halls and conference halls are mostly
air-conditioned places where the pollen, pesticides and the lured insects are anathema on health grounds. In such circumstances, the artificial silk and preserved plants come in handy. Their use
removes all the drawbacks faced in using natural greenery.
Artificial orchids add elegance and create a royal look to any place. To accentuate a theme
or to have as centerpiece, they are very much suitable. The presence of flowers has a calming effect on man. Interior designers and decorators prefer and prescribe silk orchids not just for the
colors and convenience but for the effects.
- Cymbidium, dendrobium, philaenopsis and other varieties in colorful arrangements are

and make them beautiful. You find flowers and plants in a variety of arrangements and the flowers come in myriad shapes and enchanting colors—ovals, cones, triangular eccentricities
etc.—to suit one are decorative liking and needs. Interior design reaches its heights with these artificial orchid plants and orchid flowers.
