Whereas a real Areca requires lots of attention, this one needs no tending at all. And that is the only difference between this artificial plant from Mica Decorations and the real thing. From the distinctive palm leaves to the green branches: everything has been replicated in detail. The plant comes firmly anchored in a black plastic pot, but needs to be shaped before use. After spreading the foliage, display as desired or use the supplied pot as a secure base inside a more decorative planter. Combine with other artificial plants and flowers from the collection and bring more greenery into your home.
