Artificial flowers as attractive restaurant table decorations
Artificial flowers are ideal for table decorations because they look permanently fresh and require no maintenance. They create a harmonious ambiance and can be flexibly adapted to the restaurant concept in terms of color and style. It's important that they are of high quality to create a natural impression.
Artificial Orchid
The orchid has represented elegance, purity, and luxury for centuries and was long considered an ornamental plant in European aristocratic homes. Its graceful form and almost floating blooms make it ideal for elegantly set tables in upscale restaurants, especially those with Asian or modern decor. In clear glass vases or simple ceramic pots, artificial orchids unfold their full stylistic impact.
Artificial Agave plant
The artificial Agave plant adds structure to table settings. With its striking, symmetrical leaves, it appears almost sculptural and is ideal for urban dining concepts, lounges, or restaurants with an industrial design. Its understated color scheme emphasizes a clean, cool ambiance—especially on dark tables or in metal containers.
Artificial Ferns
Artificial Ferns convey a fresh, natural ambiance. They are particularly suitable for country inns, Mediterranean bistros, or restaurants with natural elements, where they support a relaxed, inviting atmosphere. The delicate leaf structures add movement to the table and create a particularly authentic effect. Combined with wood, stone, or ceramic, fern blends harmoniously into rustic and relaxed settings.
Artificial plants as room dividers in the catering industry
Large artificial plants not only create an inviting atmosphere, but also create structure and privacy in the restaurant – for quiet areas, private conversations or a zoned room layout.

Frequently asked questions about artificial plants as restaurant decoration
Are artificial plants really maintenance-free?
Yes, artificial plants don't require watering, fertilizing, or sunlight. They only need to be dusted occasionally, which significantly reduces maintenance compared to real plants – ideal for the hectic daily life of a restaurant.
Are artificial plants also suitable for outdoor use?
Artificial plants can be used outdoors, but should be placed in sheltered areas such as covered patios, entryways, or conservatories. This protects them from direct weather conditions such as heavy rain, wind, or intense sunlight, helping them retain their well-groomed appearance for longer.
How hygienic are artificial plants in restaurants?
Artificial plants are hygienic because they don't contain soil or standing water, which could encourage mold or pests. They also don't shed leaves or flowers, thus producing no organic matter.
