Since I don’t have a green thumb (well all my live plants die ๐ณ ) – I have a silk fake plant hanging in our living room. I don’t have to remember to water it ๐
Thank you so much for stopping by today — have a great weekend — stay cool…
My thumbs are far from green too sweety, lol
I almost posted a photograph of silk flowers for my entry. If my husband wasn’t an agriculture major and farmer for most of h is life, I probably wouldn’t have any live plants, either, Iris! Hope you have a great weekend and can stop by Pollywog Creek to see my “fake” photo, too!
Around my house we commonly refer to it as the “black thumb”. If you want to kill a plant, give it to me. Actually I have had some success with African Violets – so I have lots of them!!
Cute picture idea Iris.
Lord love a duck, a live plant would certainly die in the heat we’ve having here in the good ole AZ.
Hope you two are surviving it all down there ๐
Most of my plants are fake too!!
That’s a great choice for today! I haven’t done one yet because I am having a hard time coming up with something fake — but I do have fake plants!
You have no idea how often I’ve been tempted to totally switch to silk plants. I DO have a green thumb but it’s so hot here that it’s constant work to keep all my little green friends alive. Sigh.
“Fake” is a very interesting theme, isn’t it? Imagine all the ways to take off on that subject.
Thank you so much for your words of encouragement. Rob and I are going to be fine. And knowing a new baby is on the way softens the blow of his job loss and puts everything back into perspective. xoxo
Its lovely
Im a bit like you when it comes to plants
Mine don’t live either!!! everything dies – I do not have the touch of the Master!!!
Have a great weekend. I am excited to know who wins!!!
hello my friend!!! HAVE A WONDEROUSLY AWESOME WEEKEND!!
iris — you are a total blessing. xo
You feel tired? Get some rest this weekend! Nice to have some green around the house when living in the desert. Smart woman… you don’t have to water your plant! :~)
I heard ya’ll hit 112 today–so sorry. Stay col and stay indoors. no wonder you have to watch yourself when you are driving–they are all cranky from all the heat. ๐
Those are the only kind of plants I have, too! ๐
Mine “died”. Got too much stress from the direct sunlight. Hehe. Happy 070707 and a Happy Weekend ๐ http://crizlai.blogspot.com/2007/07/photo-hunters-fake.html
I have problems with watering them too, but I still persist in trying! A lot of you seem to be having very hot weather – could you please pass some this way!
I don’t have a green thum either so I am lucky there are many sorts of succulent plants around here ๐
Nice picture and I like the way you displayed it.
Happy hunting and happy weekend!!
I’m in between. There are plants that grow and others simply wither. At least artificial plants are there to fill its place. Happy weekend! ๐
Both of my humans have black thumbs, so our only plants are fakes as well! Nice choice for the theme. ๐
I love how you’ve displayed it here too! Great idea for the week’s theme.
Happy hunting.
Great choice for this weeks hunt. I don’t have fake plants because I hate having to dust them, lol.
Mine is up too.
I have a lot of fake plants around the house too, so easy to take care,lol!
Mine is on the same train of thought –come visit.
I have seen soem beautiful “artificial’ plants.
Trying again — I DID type the last anti-spam word. . . sigh
We think alike — come see mine. I have seen some beautifial artificial plants.
I have been trying with the real plants, but I may throw in the towel soon! Fake plants, here I come!
where we live it is too hot for plants outside in the summer so I have A lot of silk ๐ Have a great Saturday.
It doesn’t look at all like a “fake” plant ! I have some false flowers too.
Now that’s the way to go: plants without water. Life is simpler.
That is funny because I don’t have a green thumb either! So the only greenary in my house are those silk plants. Love it!!
I don’t have a green thumb either. So, I also have silk plants. We have enough to take care of without having to worry about remembering to water flowers! I think your plant looks beautiful.
I kill plants, too! Maybe we should form a club? ๐
FAKE Photo Hunt
Yep I don’t really have a green thumb either, but I’m not that fond of fake plants, they need dusting!! Happy weekend.
Hi Dear Iris,
I just started reading this lovely book called the garden primer. I adore flowers and gardens but I too, am no green thumb! Hope your weekend is going well. Hugs..
I can’t keep flowers alive either. ๐ Great choice.
I have been getting my stuff out of storage. It has been there for three years and I have forgotten what I had… amazing… Found some silk flowers… I think they are lily… hard to tell out of the box after three years! This looks real!
Great FAKE picture. I am not feeling good this weekend so I just let this photo hunt slip by on me this weekend. I have been sleeping most of this weekend. Sore throat. YUCK…Sandy
I don’t have a green thumb myself so I’d rather have fake plants adorn my small home, at least for a decor. The one you have is pretty.
Here’s mine:

Happy weekend!
I am surprised anything grows with the temps. you guys have! LOL
Blessings!
I just learn to water the green plants which are at the balcony…I know it is easy for us to water green plants..most of time I also do this kind of thing…so now everyday when I go to the balcony to hang clothes, I will have a look of the green plans first, if the clay is dry, then I will water them…
