Indoor Artificial Trees

Indoor artificial trees add height and greenery to a room without the maintenance a live tree needs. The range covers the species most used in interiors, from flowering camellia and magnolia to areca and fishtail palms, all moulded and finished to read as the real thing. See the full tree range.

The main advantage indoors is that they hold their shape and colour in any light, including the low-light corners, internal rooms, and stairwells where a live tree drops leaves and slowly dies. There is no watering, feeding, or pruning, and no mess or pests.

Trees run from tabletop sizes through to floor-standing pieces over two metres, so there is a fit for a desk, a corner, or a double-height void. Commonly searched as fake indoor trees, faux indoor trees, and artificial indoor plants.

What Is in the Indoor Tree Range

• Flowering trees. Camellia, magnolia, and blossom styles that add colour as well as height. See the white camellia tree and the potted magnolia tree.
• Palms. Areca, kentia, and fishtail palm for a tropical, resort feel.
• Fig and ficus trees. Fiddle-leaf fig and ficus styles, a mainstay of modern interiors.
• Foliage and statement trees. Larger full-canopy trees that anchor a room or void.
• Potted indoor trees. Ready-potted pieces for placement with no assembly.

Where Indoor Trees Work

• Living rooms and bedrooms. A floor tree in a corner adds height and softens hard edges.
• Offices and reception areas. Greenery for lobbies, waiting areas, and breakout zones with no maintenance contract.
• Cafes, restaurants, and retail. Statement trees that hold their look in low-light interiors and high-traffic spaces.
• Studios and creative spaces. Larger trees used as natural dividers and backdrops.
• Hallways and entries. A tree beside a door or at the end of a hall draws the eye through a space.
• Low-light rooms. Internal rooms and dim corners where a live tree could not survive.

Choosing and Styling an Indoor Tree

Size it to the room

Tall trees suit rooms with high ceilings and double-height voids, where a small tree would look lost. Smaller trees suit tables, shelves, desks, and tight corners. As a guide, leave clear space above the canopy so the tree does not crowd the ceiling.

Placement and colour

Set a floor tree in a corner, beside a sofa, or at an entry, and check that the leaf colour and texture sit well with the surrounding scheme. A two-tone or flowering tree adds more visual interest where a plain green canopy would read flat.

Choosing a planter

Trees that ship without a pot, or with a plain nursery pot, can be set into a decorative pot or planter in ceramic, stone, or a matt finish. As a guide, the pot should be around a third of the total tree height for a balanced look.

Common Add-Ons

Indoor trees pair with a decorative pot or planter sized to the tree, and with smaller plants to build a layered indoor display. For a covered outdoor or full-sun position, the UV-resistant range is the one rated for those conditions.
