    Never rake leaves again ---

    Or trim branches, water or prune these Juniper trees. Why? Because they're fake. After last winter in NYC killed both the small evergreen trees we had in the backyard, we thought we would try a couple of artificial trees. We found a couple we liked at Wayfair.com and bought them. See if you think they look real in this Giz Wiz video. Here's info from Wayfair where we bought our trees: The National Tree Co. Juniper Upright Desk Top Plant in Pot is a great option for places that otherwise cannot support real plants. The lush green shade of the upright juniper creates nice contrast with the dark green color of the planter. The weather resistant finish on the faux plant makes it possible to keep it outdoor. The show piece is fade resistant, shatter proof, water resistant and even fire resistant. Since this is an artificial plant, you can keep it anywhere without worrying about triggering any allergic reactions. Easy to maintain; a gentle gush of air from a blower is all that it takes to clean the plant. You can also clean it with a duster. This artificial plant will keep looking fresh and beautiful for a long long time and makes for a great gift. And now back to me. So far Dennis & I love these trees. How will they fair through the winter? We'll find out in the coming months. One thing we know for sure. Last winter the cold and ice killed our two live evergreen trees. The weather can't kill these faux plants. Price for the 30" Juniper is around $85 to $90 and that includes free 2-day delivery.
