All Artificial Trees

Every artificial tree in the range, in one place — 300-plus faux specimens from tabletop bonsai to sixteen-foot lobby palms, across roughly twenty species. Homeowners, interior designers, hoteliers, restaurateurs, event stylists and home stagers all start here and then filter down by species, height, indoor or outdoor placement, or the room they are actually furnishing.

What company makes the best artificial trees?

There is no single answer, because the category splits by scale. Mass retailers do small potted greenery well and cheaply. Specialists exist because of what happens above about six feet, where a trunk has to be structural, foliage has to be attached at thousands of points rather than hundreds, and freight becomes the hard part of the job. The useful test of any artificial tree is the same three questions: does the trunk have real taper and bark texture, does the foliage carry more than one green, and does the range go tall enough for the room you are furnishing?

What are some artificial indoor trees that look real?

Species with strong architecture beat species with dense detail. Olive, ficus, banyan and areca palm are the most convincing indoors because their silhouettes are irregular by nature, so small imperfections read as growth rather than as repetition. Conifers are the hardest to fake at close range, because a real needle is thin, translucent and subtly different on every branch. If a tree will be seen from under two metres, prioritise trunk quality and leaf variation; beyond that, silhouette does most of the work.

How to choose the right size

Work from ceiling height, not floor area. Subtract 18 inches from the finished ceiling, then subtract the planter, and what remains is your maximum tree height. In practice that means under 2 ft for desks and counters, 2 to 7 ft for standard rooms, and 7 ft and above only where the ceiling genuinely allows it. The three size collections mirror that split: Small Trees, Medium Trees (2–7 ft) and Large Artificial Trees. Where a product lists several heights, choose the variant rather than assuming the size in the photograph.

Frequently asked questions

How do we clean an artificial tree?

Regular dusting is most of the job: a soft brush, a microfibre duster, or a vacuum on low suction with a brush attachment, worked from the top of the canopy down. A cool hairdryer on low airflow clears dust from tight foliage clusters a brush can't reach. Wipe a real-touch or moulded trunk with a barely damp cloth if needed, but avoid soaking paper-wrapped or fabric-wrapped trunks. Full steps, including tabletop and floor-tree specifics, are in our cleaning guide.

Can artificial trees go outside in a Canadian winter?

Only specific products in the range are built for it, and cold is rarely the deciding factor — foliage and connectors mainly need to tolerate freeze-thaw cycling and, in most of the country, snow load. UV-stabilised foliage and a weighted or bolted base matter more than the season, since summer sun fades and embrittles unstabilised leaves faster than winter cold damages them. Check each product page for outdoor or covered-outdoor placement. See artificial plants outdoors in a Canadian winter and UV Resistant & Outdoor Safe.

Do artificial tree leaves fade in sunlight?

Unstabilised foliage can, over time, in direct sun — colour drifts and the plastic can turn brittle, which is the main way an indoor-grade tree fails outdoors or in an intensely sunny window. UV-stabilised foliage is formulated to resist that fade and is worth seeking out for a bright south-facing room or any outdoor placement. The product page states whether a given tree is UV-stabilised; where it doesn't, treat the tree as indoor-grade. See this guide for more.

Do artificial trees arrive fully assembled?

It depends on size. Small tabletop and desk plants usually arrive ready to place. Anything from around four feet up typically ships in sections — a trunk in parts, separate branch clusters, or a folding canopy — because a single large box isn't practical to freight or carry indoors. Assembly is generally slotting labelled pieces together and fanning the foliage by hand to remove creases from transit. See our unboxing and shaping guide for what to expect model by model.

What should we check before buying an artificial tree?

Start with the ceiling and floor space you actually have, not the room you'd like to have — measure both before browsing by species. Then check placement (indoor, covered outdoor or outdoor), whether the tree includes a planter, and whether the trunk is real wood, moulded resin or a wrapped pole, since that changes how it looks up close. Finally treat the height as a range rather than a single number if the product offers size variants, and confirm you're selecting the one you want.
