They are also something a bit different, and something that you can point to and show off when entertaining guests. It could be said that these fake trees are the ultimate ice breaker, as many people will ask about it or wonder what possessed you to get it.

There’s something about a palm tree – it has a certain magical, relaxing quality about it that makes us think of a paradise island somewhere far off, where all of our troubles have disappeared. Many people often fantasise about being in a far-off island, and many films often exploit this common fantasy by using fake palm trees. You can also get small palm trees that are little over a meter tall to stand in your living room or dining room. There are several different looks and styles that you can get, and you can even get a bonsai tree (the kind that you’ll see in the film ‘The Karate Kid’ with Mr. Miyagi).

Fake palm trees are often used on and are perfect for movie sets. Most movies require the sets and scenery to be perfect all the time (or as they are supposed to look), and fake trees are best for keeping the same look and consistency. A great example of how palm trees were used to perfect (real palm trees mind, not fake ones) was in the Dr. No (the James Bond film) with the scene where Bond gets to the island and sees Ursula Andrews coming out of the water singing ‘Under the Mango Tree’. The trees used in this scene create a quite brilliant effect that keeps the viewer watching. A real sense of paradise Is created, and it’s the kind of place you wish you could close your eyes and whisk yourself off to.

To create the beach look these days, many film makers often use fake palm trees, as they can put them anywhere that they want (and you only need sand then to make it into a beach) and they will never die. Artificial plants don’t care what kind of climate they are in, they don’t even care if you never water them!
