Fantastic Faux Flowers

I absolutely love artificial flowers, greens and berries for a variety of reasons. In the long-run they are cheaper than the real thing (of course they can't compete with mother nature), they don't drop pollen all over the place, always look fresh and when they are out of season - bag'em and throw them into the attic!

These gumball, twiggy branches, and small pine cone branches are fabulous.

Palmetto berries, figs and custard apples make a great combination.
