Why use artificial palm trees?
High-quality artificial palm trees look just like the real thing and are much easier to maintain, requiring no watering, repotting, pruning, or other plant care like live plants and trees. They’ll look just as lush as the day you bought them, no matter your schedule or gardening abilities.
In addition, artificial palm trees have a long lifespan – typically 5-10 years, depending on the materials used – making them an affordable option for homeowners and decorators.
Finally, fake palm trees are great in any climate. Even if palm trees aren't native to your area, or your local climate or weather patterns are suitable for palm trees, you don't have to worry about artificial palm trees. They can thrive anywhere they're "planted."
Are Artificial Palm Trees UV Resistant?
If you want to place an artificial palm tree in a sunny spot in your backyard or on your balcony, you may be concerned about sun damage. It's a valid concern—the sun's UV rays can absolutely damage an unprotected artificial palm tree.
Over time, if nothing is blocking them, UV rays can cause the color of artificial plants to fade, and can even begin to damage the material, causing cracks and other signs of damage.
That's why it's important to consider UV-resistant palm trees for outdoor decoration.
UV-resistant palm trees are sprayed with a blocking agent during the manufacturing process. This substance absorbs UV rays, protecting the color and structure of the plant. Ultimately, this protection can extend the life of your outdoor artificial plants, further increasing their cost-effectiveness.
Now that you know the benefits of adding artificial palm tree decorations inside and outside your home, let's explore the best looks for each location.

Palm Trees for Porches and Front Doors
One of the best ways to decorate the front of your home with faux palm trees is to place matching palm trees on either side of the door. This framing is a decorator’s trick for creating instant appeal. Choose palm trees, such as the traveler palm, in white pots for a simple, all-in-one design.
For small front yards, placing an artificial palm tree just outside the center of the front door can create a simple but effective design statement.
Palm Trees for Backyards
Naturally, faux palm trees look just right next to a pool or patio area in your backyard. You can even use a group of faux palm trees to create privacy if your pool area lacks privacy. Or, place them around a hot tub, also for privacy. Bonus: Since a tub is typically smaller than a pool, you don’t need a lot of palm trees to give this area an instant lush, tropical vacation feel.
