The Tropaeolum, better known as nasturtium, comes from the mountainous regions of South America. In the wild it is known for its trailing growth and exuberant flowering in shades of warm orange, deep red and sunny yellow. The 110cm artificial version gives you exactly that lively, playful look, but without a single thought about care.

Why choose the artificial Tropaeolum?

The real Tropaeolum is striking, but it wants a sunny spot and regular care to stay looking good. The artificial version is maintenance-free and looks remarkably natural. The trails and leaves are supple, in fresh greens with fine veins. The flowers are made of soft fabric with a warm, realistic look, as though the plant has just come into bloom.

Where should you put the artificial Tropaeolum?

This artificial plant is ideal if you want colour and movement in your home. Let it tumble playfully over the edge of a cabinet, stand it in a tall pot for a lush effect, or use it as a lovely accent in a conservatory, hallway or office. Because it needs no daylight, it does just as well in dark spots where real plants can't survive. It's completely safe around children and pets too.

How do you look after the artificial Tropaeolum?

The artificial Tropaeolum needs hardly any care. An occasional dust with a dry cloth or feather duster keeps both the leaves and the flowers clean and lively. Avoid wet cloths and cleaning products; the high-quality material is made to stay beautiful for a long time with no extra help.
