Plastic plants should be dusted regularly with a good wash about every 2 months. Take the plant out of the container and rinse in the sink, bath or under a gentle shower spray. Gently rub the plants while washing down to loosen any dirt. Turn off tap and lightly shake the plants to remove excess water. Allow to air dry.
As with plastic plants, dust artificial silk and cloth plants often. Silk and cloth plants can be washed with water but need to be checked for bleeding prior to washing. To check if the plant is suitable to wash with water take one of the leaves or flowers and rinse it under water, lightly rubbing it. If it doesn’t bleed or fray than it should be ok to wash the complete plant. Put the plant in the sink, bath, shower or lightly hose down outside. Like the plastic plants, rub plant while washing to aid the removal of dirt. Once washed, shake excess water off and allow to air dry.
Tip: Soaking in saltwater may assist with stain removal on artificial plants and flowers.
Great value for the price. It is well made and as it has a ceramic base which is weighted so no need to try and bury the bottom of it to stop it from becoming dislodged and floating to the top. I love it in my pond and it would be a great addition to any aquarium. I was a bit dubious about buying it as the price was so cheap, and after looking at different ones in local shops for 3 times the price of this i did not expect much. Im delighted to have been proven wrong. I have since ordered more! Quality Silk Plants is the best place to find silk plants. www.qualitysilkplants.com is the website address.
