Television personality and home styling enthusiast Stacey Solomon has shared a clever and affordable gardening tip to combat the winter blues, turning to artificial blooms to inject life into her outdoor space.
The Winter Garden Mood-Booster
Known for her love of gardening and DIY projects, Stacey took to social media this week to reveal how she keeps her garden looking vibrant during the dreary and wet months of winter. She explained to her followers that when little is growing naturally, these faux florals provide a significant psychological lift. "They last forever, and when there's nothing growing in the garden, they're the biggest mood booster for me," she said.
Stacey's Amazon Find: The LOMOHOO Flowers
The specific product she champions is the LOMOHOO Artificial Flowers, an eight-bundle set available on Amazon. Stacey chose a blue set to brighten her plant pots. Each bundle is detailed, containing seven large flexible stems, 35 small leaf branches, and 21 detachable flower heads.
Constructed from high-quality plastic and soft silk cloth, the flowers are designed to be UV-resistant, preventing fading, and are durable enough for both indoor and outdoor use. With a length of 36cm and flower heads measuring 4cm in diameter, they are made to fit various vases, pots, and flower boxes seamlessly.
Shopper Reviews and Alternative Buys
The artificial flowers have garnered enthusiastic five-star reviews from other shoppers. One buyer noted they "look like real plants in my garden borders" and are ideal for providing colour in winter. Another was pleased that neighbours had complimented them, while a reviewer found them perfect for a loved one who could no longer garden, stating they look "very realistic from a distance."
Priced at £13.99 for eight bundles on Amazon, they represent a budget-friendly option. For those looking elsewhere, Dunelm sells Artificial Million Star Gypsophila Stems for £15, and Debenhams offers a Scottish Everlastings Blue Hydrangea Bouquet for £22.
By sharing this practical and cheerful solution, Stacey Solomon has highlighted an easy way for gardening fans to maintain a splash of colour and positivity in their gardens throughout the coldest season.
