Artificial flowers in gardens

Not appealing to me, I find gardening enjoyable.

I think you should do as you wish.

I've got an outdoor rug on my back doorstep too!
I really am beyond the pale.

I've put some outside mine.
You wouldn't be able to tell, and i don't feel up to doing my usual bit of growing this year.
(That and the loss of my watering can put paid to the idea)

I keep seeing outdoor rugs……why?
Also artificial lawn and hanging baskets so I guess it has to be plants next.
I like to support wildlife.

It is, of course, a matter of personal choice. I really don't like artificial plants and flowers or lawns in gardens.

I do however have stakes decorated with metal flowers and leaves but I don't know if this counts.

I don't think artificial plants and flowers do any damage to gardens but I am not so sure about lawns.

I think it's not a particularly nice idea and we could do with less plastic in our lives, not more.

I also don't like seeing obviously fake plants, but that's just my opinion.

But I suppose it cuts out all the work associated with maintaining a good display over the summer months.
