Nowadays there are several companies producing synthetic flowers that look so real that at a glance it is very difficult to differentiate between these flowers and the real one, until you go towards it and touch it and feel them. Every artificial flower is made with a huge variety of materials to give them a realistic appearance. Soft materials like paper, silk, velvet, foam and surprisingly latex as well are used to make synthetic flowers to help it to look like the real thing. The basic reason that people turn to synthetic flowers instead of the real thing is just because that they bring a very colorful approach to the place where you put them, which helps to infuse more life into the room so that the room ends up looking much brighter, otherwise it just looks sad which no one likes. In addition, another reason is because they require no work. You just have to put it there and just dust it once in a while but if they were natural flowers you would have to worry about water, sunlight and also have to be careful that you didn’t knock it over or damage it. When at first an artificial flower was produced the material they used to make them was plastic which made them look very obviously artificial, and this developed an aversion in many people to whom the “plastic” look held no appeal. They were willing to pay extra money just to get real flowers to avoid this look. After that, however, companies started using better products so that they could take out this problem out of the equation, and nowadays companies make great effort in making them look like the real thing, giving them almost realistic looking colors, height, width and even stems. Many companies even use a special kind of material so that you can submerge an artificial flower into water to make it look even more realistic. If you want the perfect example of how far companies go to create that perfect artificial flower, you need to look no further than the efforts they put in callas. When creating callas, a very beautiful flower, the materials these companies use are foam and latex, and they would not use silk for creating the perfect callas because silk would not be able to keep its shape, nor would it be possible to get that special color in silk that gives callas its shine and beauty.
