Kentia 8-foot Silk Palm Tree

I can't believe I love my fake tree more than a real plant - this one is amazing. Definitely expect to put this in a larger planter and secure with rocks or another material - the top heavy thing is true. But of all the ones I bought, this is my favorite. Also, it's not actually 8 ft tall, more like 7 ft.

As a rule I avoid plastic/artificial plants but I needed to fill a space in a high end beach condo. It filled the space well and from 5 feet away and more it's hard to tell it's plastic. There was a 2 inch gap in the trunk of the plant that would not assemble properly. I had to maneuver the leaves to make it work. I also placed it inside a much better looking pot and that helped the overall look.

This palm tree was much fuller than the picture shows....but it seems to be top heavy, so I placed the pot into a larger ceramic pot and it looks GREAT! Exactly what I wanted.

For the money this tree isn't a bad value, but its not very realistic looking up close. From across the room it looks great, but up close the trunk is clearly bright green plastic.
