Day 135: Silk Plants Canada

Silk Plants Canada was one of the first in Canada to provide Artificial Silk Plants and Custom-Made Artificial Silk Trees to commercial clients as well as offer Artificial Silk Plants and Custom-Made Artificial Silk Trees to the average consumer through our retail stores. "We will Custom-Make Artificial Silk Trees up to 12 Feet and ship anywhere in Canada and the USA. To date we still provide and sell the finest quality Artificial Silk Plants and Custom-Made Artificial Silk Trees in Canada. We are recognized by Architects, Interior Designers, Interior Decorators, Hospitality Industry and the Movie Industry for providing quality, largest selection of Artificial Silk Plants and Custom-Made Artificial Silk Trees followed by premium service."

Started in 1979 as Dr. Plant Tropical Foliage Corporation in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Silk Plants Canada was the first retail store for live tropical plants that also offered leasing and maintenance of live tropical plants. "A few years later we were introduced to the world of Artificial Plants and Silk Fig Branches. When we started having some issues with live tropical Fig Trees not surviving in low light areas Rodney started to experiment with inserting Silk Fig Branches into the dried-out trunks of the live tropical Fig Trees. We then replaced the live Fig Trees with the Artificial Silk Fig Trees. No one realized that Rodney’s Custom-Made Silk Trees were not real. As this was such a great success it was a natural transition that the way to solve this problem was to replace live tropical Trees with Artificial Plants and Custom-Made Artificial Silk Trees. Since we were familiar with botany of live plants and trees, we knew how to botanically duplicate Silk Plants and Silk Trees."

Silk Plants Canada offers many types of artificial plants, trees, and grasses, including flowers, bonsais, ivies, palms, arrangements and cacti. Their website displays a stunning gallery, not just for their products, but for decorating ideas for every room in the house, outdoor, commercial, and niche. Silk Plants Canada offers a beautiful, low-maintenance option to add a touch of greenery to any space.
