🌿 DECKO Verdure Babylon Cascades & Eden Plantables
INSTALLATION GUIDE
DECKO Verdure artificial plants are designed for simple, tool-free DIY setup — whether you're styling a retail display, balcony, planter box, or vertical wall. Each piece comes with a durable, solid plastic stem for secure positioning into your chosen base.
Babylon Cascades (Hanging Plants)
Overview: Designed to mimic cascading tropical greenery. Suitable for vertical gardens, fences, pergolas, and overhead displays.
Installation Options:
-
Insert into planters: Push the 100 mm solid plastic stem into foam, soil, pebbles, sand, or garden stones for a stable base.
-
Hanging setups: Use hooks, wire, twist ties, or even cable ties to attach to mesh, rods, beams, or brackets.
-
Mix & Layer: Combine multiple plants at different heights and angles for a full, lush appearance.
-
No tools required
Tip: For a vertical green wall, pair with DECKO wall panels or a mesh base. Simply bend and shape the stems for a natural drape.
Eden Plantables (Upright Plants)
Overview: Realistic upright artificial plants ideal for pots, troughs, and tabletop arrangements.
Installation Options:
-
Pot styling: Place stems directly into soil, foam, pebbles, or weighted sand inside your chosen planter.
-
Trough or group displays: Mix different heights and styles to create full, natural arrangements.
-
Vertical displays: Combine with Babylon Cascades for layered depth and visual interest.
-
No tools required
Note: Each Eden plant includes a firm, flexible 100 mm stem that can be trimmed or bent (using heat) as needed for custom positioning.
CARE & MAINTENANCE
While DECKO Verdure plants require no watering or pruning, a little care will help keep them looking their best — indoors or out.
General Care (Both Ranges):
-
Dusting: If it is simple to remove them from their medium, then the is easiest way to dust it is to just hose them down outside. However, if they are installed inside, and it is a hassle to remove, just wipe gently with a soft dry cloth, duster or use a low-power vacuum brush.
-
Washing: For outdoor builds, hose down occasionally or wipe with a damp cloth and mild soapy water if needed.
-
Shaping: You can bend and reposition stems/leaves occasionally to refresh the display.
-
UV & Weather Resistance: Safe for outdoor use - all plants are crafted from virgin UV-stabilised polyethylene, tested to 5,000 hours of sun exposure. Colour and flexibility will last for years without fading or cracking.
Important: While weather-resistant, prolonged exposure to harsh conditions (e.g. storms, hail) may cause physical damage - we recommend installing under partial shelter where possible for long-term outdoor displays.
Storage Tips (if reusing seasonally):
-
Store in a dry, shaded area.
-
Loosely cover with breathable fabric (avoid plastic wrap).
-
Avoid crushing or stacking to preserve shape.
SUSTAINABILITY NOTE
Contrary to popular belief, for this type of product, it is actually more sustainable to use virgin materials that last 5+ years in outdoor conditions (or 10x longer indoors) and is recyclable, than to use one made from recycled plastic that degrades after just a few months and may require further processing or disposal.
This is because most recycled plastics cannot be recycled indefinitely—they degrade in quality each cycle, losing its ability to be effectively UV stabilized, often becoming non-recyclable after one or two rounds.
Additionally, the energy and emissions involved in frequent replacement and reprocessing (if even possible) can outweigh the footprint of a single, long-lasting, recyclable product.
So, choosing high-performance, UV-stabilised materials that deliver longevity and recyclability can actually be the more environmentally responsible choice.
