Artificial Plants and Flowers

Features and types

The collection covers three major product families: artificial cut flowers (single stems to be arranged freely), potted plants ready to use and decorative panels and hedges for walls and commercial spaces. The material varies depending on the intended use.

Tulips in rubber and Olis

Tulips are among the most versatile products in the collection. EDG Enzo De Gasperi offers them in the Olisversion, with 48 cm stem, available closed or open and in a palette that includes white, cream pink, lilac/mauve. Olis rubber guarantees a slightly glossy finish and colours that do not fade over time. The 48 cm formats work well in tall vases or entrance arrangements; the more compact ones are used on shelves and tables.

Flowering branches: sakura, lily, clematis, anemone

I lily branches H 67 cm by EDG Enzo De Gasperi are available in white-pink, fuchsia, yellow and dark pink: a standard format that lends itself to cylindrical vases of 20–25 cm. The clematis branch H 105 cm in rosy peach, with flowers, buds and leaves, is designed for more dramatic arrangements. The anemone Rex branch H 52 cm in white/pink is suitable for centrepieces and ceremony arrangements. Sakura branches (cherry blossom) in pale pink or fuchsia are available in heights of 60, 92 and 115 cm: the 115 cm format creates a dramatic effect in living rooms and receptions.

Velvet roses on branch

Among the autumn 2026 novelties are the Velvet Roses EDG Enzo De Gasperi: the branch with leaves H 50 cm and the branch H 60 cm, both in deep red. They are designed as a festive and winter decorative element, but integrate easily into ceremony arrangements or table decorations. Paired with white or grey branches, they create an effective colour contrast for wedding or christening centrepieces.

Anti-UV hedges and panels for outdoor use

The Anti-UV Artificial Moss Hedge 100×100 cm by EDG Enzo De Gasperi is the largest format reference in the collection: waterproof, with UV ray protection treatment, suitable for terraces, balconies, external walls of bars and restaurants. The plants and flowers edg - enzo de gasperi also include specific references for outdoor use: always check the product sheet to verify the presence of UV protection treatment before purchasing.

Arpimex and Conti: complementary variety

The 41 references Arpimex and the 28 Conti complete the range with types and palettes different from those of EDG. Artificial flowers and branches Conti particularly cover pampas grass, roses and decorative plants. Due Elle line adds floral arrangements useful also for favours and ceremony arrangements.

How to choose

For the home: heights and contexts

For living rooms and bedrooms, medium-sized branches (H 50–67 cm) are the most balanced choice: they fit in a standard vase without taking up too much visual space. For entrances and empty corners, tall branches like the 115 cm sakura or 105 cm clematis offer more impact. For bathrooms and kitchens, verify that the material has moisture tolerance: many EDG products in PVC withstand humidity without deteriorating.

For those looking for a more structured décor solution, a practical idea is to pair artificial flowers with a suitable vase: in the vases and planters section you will find ceramic, glass and cement containers that pair well with large-format branches.

For ceremonies: wedding, christening, communion

Artificial flowers are often used for ceremony arrangements because they do not wilt during the hours of the event, can be prepared days in advance and can be stored or given away afterwards. The white Olis tulips and the white Phalaenopsis orchids pair with any wedding or christening colour palette. The anemone branches H 52 cm in white/pink are suitable for coordinated centrepieces for multiple tables.

We selected these EDG Enzo De Gasperi references also for their adaptability to event arrangements: those organising a ceremony can build coordinated floral arrangements for multiple tables and reuse them at home afterwards.

For seasonal decorations

Cherry and peach branches in pink are perfect for Easter and spring. For Christmas, the Velvet Roses in red and white branches easily fit into arrangements with baubles, garlands and ribbons. The shorter formats (H 50–60 cm) integrate into seasonal centrepieces; tall branches work as the main element in floor vases.

For offices and commercial spaces

Cut flowers and medium-sized decorative branches are an immediate solution for desks, meeting rooms and reception areas: no watering, no natural light needed, quick cleaning with a dry cloth. For outdoor spaces such as bar and restaurant terraces, the anti-UV moss hedge is the most suitable reference — waterproof surface and 100×100 cm of coverage per panel. For those furnishing interiors as well, the sections indoor tables e indoor chairs complete the picture.

FAQ

What is the difference between Real Touch flowers and Olis rubber flowers?

Real Touch flowers use soft PVC or silicone that replicates the texture of petals to the touch: when touched, a softness similar to a natural flower is perceived. Olis flowers have a more compact and slightly glossy finish, with good visual quality but different consistency. Both technologies guarantee stable colours over time; the choice depends on the desired effect and the exhibition environment.

Do artificial flowers resist outdoors?

Only products with anti-UV treatment are suitable for outdoor use. Check the technical sheet of the individual item: outdoor EDG Enzo De Gasperi references explicitly show protection from solar rays and weather resistance. Indoor products, if exposed to direct sunlight for long periods, may fade.

What are the most suitable indoor plants that require no maintenance?

The most practical artificial indoor plants are those with rigid stems and dense foliage: they require no water, tolerate environments with poor light and remain intact even in poorly ventilated rooms. Artificial Phalaenopsis orchids with stem H 85 cm are among the most popular choices for living rooms and bedrooms because they replicate a highly appreciated apartment plant while completely eliminating its maintenance.

How do you clean artificial flowers and plants?

For daily dust, a soft dry cloth or a feather duster is enough. For more thorough cleaning, use a cloth barely damp with lukewarm water, without aggressive detergents. Some PVC items can be rinsed gently under running water. Avoid rubbing Real Touch petals vigorously so as not to alter their texture.

Can I use single branches for personalised arrangements?

Yes, it is one of the most practical uses. Sakura branches, peach branches and tulip bouquets combine freely in vases, baskets or mixed arrangements. You can mix heights, colours and different types to create centrepieces for weddings, christenings or seasonal decorations. The arrangement can be reorganised every season without purchasing new elements.
