Autograph Foliages: faux plants & palms. Unofficial pro-fake plant thread - Tiki Marketplace

Real plants will get leggy & pale if they don't have enough light. One real plant that does okay is the Janet Craig dracaena, which is why it's so ubiquitous in offices: But it just screams "gray cubicles and fluorescent lights!" to me, so I say fake tropicals are the way to go if your home tiki bar is of the low-light variety. Those fake tropicals look nice, and the prices look pretty reasonable. I think something's wonky with their sale code, though, because their Tillandsias, which are normally $10.90, are "on sale" for $17.95!
