706 fake landscapes 210cm dl Kentia palm in clients pot

An Areca (or maybe a Kentia) palm. One of them certainly! Again, available in a variety of heights, this one is 2m tall. They do take up a fair bit of left-right space, though. We also have some leaf variations, with both a UV version for use outdoors (in non-windy places…) and a slimmer leaf version. Pretty much impossible to see the difference in pictures, so book in to have a look! 706

705 fake landscapes 175cm multitrunk ficus lyrata

Big family, the Ficus (Ficuses? Ficii?). This is a Lyrata or Fiddle-Leaf, and our rather nice version of one. As fake leaves get bigger, there’s a tendency for them to look less convincing, and we spent a lot of time getting ours to be thick and 3D enough to look good close up. We have these in a variety of sizes, with both plain and vine-wrapped trunks, as here. 705

704 fake landscapes 180cm french liana ficus in anthracite

We have no idea why these are called French Ficus trees – they don’t grow in France… They’re about our most popular house tree, though, and come in three sizes from 150cm/5’ through to 230cm, which is seven-and-a bit-feet in old money. The trunks are liana vines, the leaves a grey dark green - and the whole thing is very good looking. 704

894 baskets The Ivy ref pic

More copper, this time with a lot of mad straggling grey-frosted plants at the Ivy, in a sort of ‘Kings Road meets Louisiana swamp’ lopsided vibe with bare twigs. Less is more, they say… 894

893 random hangers

More of the ‘hang ‘em high’ style, this time as a play-around to see how orchids can be used without looking silly or growing out at an implausible 90 degrees to reality. Work in progress, and we need to improve the knot-tying! 893

892 fake landscapes succulents in clients nice double bowl

Not really very wild or trailing, but we have great succulents, and we use a lot of them dotted among all the greenery and also in our indoor livings walls. We’re currently making a green wall that’s entirely succulents for a boat project, so if or when that’s completed, we’ll post it here. 892

891 Fake Landscapes Brown Thomas Green and Bean Cafe

Another project in Dublin, this time at Brown Thomas, using a similar mixed mass of ferns – like the ones floating in the air a little earlier in the sequence. This wasn’t a large enough project to justify flying a team out, so it was built in our workshops as a ‘drop-in’ and sent over by carrier. 891

890 fake landscapes natural look ivy on clients framework AP

And again (which will make no sense unless you’ve come here from the previous picture!), this is another ‘high spec’ luxury interior in a West End watch showroom having its lines softened by our ivy. Design (and nice lighting) by March and White, fiddly ivy threading by us. 890

889 doyle dublin

Another high end project using wild planting, this is the appropriately named Wilde restaurant in the Westbury, Dublin. The ivies are on twisted wood so they flow round the windows rather than follow the columns rigidly. The elves enjoyed the Guinness, too! 889

888 fake landscapes dense high level ivy and wild plants Ascot royal enclosure

Odd how this sort of planting works in all sorts of different places – this is the Royal Enclosure at Ascot and meant to look like hedgerows (In Surrey? Ed.) Design by SHH, and this time there’s a Fake Landscapes elf for scale as well. 888
