No room is complete without greenery. That’s a fact around our house. Anytime a room feels kind of “meh”, bam, drop a plant in there and it’s suddenly perfect. Buuuuut I can’t keep a real plant alive to save my life, so I guess that’s kind of a problem.
I can keep my 4 year-old alive or a fiddle leaf fig alive; I can’t do both. #priorities So I go the artificial route 9 times out of 10 (okay, you caught me 10 out of 10). The fake stuff really has come up in the world over the past few years, and I swear most times I have to reach out and touch it to believe it’s not living.
And with summer nearly here, I’m find myself wanting to fill our house with greenery more and more. The real looking artificial kind isn’t exactly cheap though. If you’re down to put a $200 preserved boxwood in your house, no judgement. But I know that won’t be happening for me.
So I’ve rounded up 20 of my favorite pieces of artificial greenery all for under $50 if you’ve been feeling the need for green lately. Just click any image below to find its source. (Affiliate links are provided below.)

May 17, 2017 at 10:19 amYou should try a ZZ plant. It’s a houseplant that is nearly foolproof. Green, thick leaves and tolerates not being watered regularly. Likes a bright window but not hot sun, If a stem breaks off it looks great in a clear vase and will eventually root and create a new plant.

May 17, 2017 at 11:25 amGood to know! Thanks, Linda! I haven’t tried that one before.

May 17, 2017 at 1:00 pmI fell in love with the herb set in burlap. Had it in my cart at Amazon, then checked Walmart.com. Had it shipped to the store, and even with tax, I saved $14 bucks!
Lauren says
May 17, 2017 at 2:08 pmOooh! Thanks for the tip, Jan!

October 6, 2018 at 2:24 amWhere can I find the lovely plants from your office makeover? ?
Lauren says
October 6, 2018 at 8:34 pmRachel, unfortunately the plant items from the office are no longer in stock. I had gotten them from IKEA. There is a similar option here you may like https://rstyle.me/n/c9rwj7b5ky7 . I hope that these will help complete your room.
Lauren says
October 6, 2018 at 8:51 pmAHHA!! While looking for something for someone else I found this plant that is more similar to the ones in the office. https://rstyle.me/n/bhx2ynb5ky7. However, it is only one.
