Faux Bay Leaf Spray

Our Faux Bay Leaf Spray brings the look of fresh Mediterranean greenery indoors without any of the upkeep. Each faux bay leaf spray is finished with slim, tapered leaves in a natural green tone, complete with the subtle veining and slightly waxy surface that gives real bay its recognisable character. The leaves sit at varied angles along the stem, so the whole spray reads as something freshly cut rather than mass produced. At 65cm tall, it holds its own in taller vessels while remaining slender enough to tuck alongside other stems.

This faux foliage stem is a useful base for all sorts of displays. Group two or three sprays in a plain glass vase for a simple green arrangement, or mix them into a fuller display alongside faux blooms and grasses to add depth and a leafy backdrop. The green foliage works well in a kitchen, on a hallway console or across a dining table, and pairs happily with both rustic ceramics and cleaner modern vases. Because the stem can be gently bent, you can shape it to fan out or fall to one side to suit your chosen container.

Caring for it could not be easier. There is no water to change and no wilting to worry about, so it looks the same all year round. Simply dust the leaves occasionally with a soft cloth or a light shake to keep them looking fresh. The plastic construction means the leaves will not fade or drop in the way cut foliage does, giving you a long lasting piece of greenery for the home.

Does it really look like real bay foliage?

Yes. The leaves have a natural green colour, gentle veining and a slightly waxy finish, and they are set at varied angles along the stem so the spray looks freshly picked rather than uniform.

How do I style it with other stems?

Use it as a leafy base and mix in faux blooms, grasses or other foliage for a fuller look. A few sprays on their own in a glass vase also make a simple green display for a kitchen or console.

How do I clean and dust it?

Wipe the leaves now and then with a soft dry cloth, or give the spray a light shake to lift any settled dust. Avoid soaking it, as it only needs surface cleaning.

Does it need water or any other care?

No water is needed at all. Simply arrange it in your chosen vessel and bend the stem to shape. There is no wilting or trimming to keep on top of.

Will the leaves shed or fade over time?

The plastic leaves are made to hold their colour and stay put, so you should not see the dropping or fading that comes with cut foliage. Keeping it out of harsh direct sunlight helps the green stay looking its best.
