This story is hilarious because I love plants but have a tough time keeping them healthy so I have some fake plants in my home as well. This woman fell in love with her plant but didn't know it was fake until she went to repot it! True story!
Caelie Wilkes shared her story on her Facebook page, where she wrote, “I’ve had this beautiful succulent for about two years now. I was so proud of this plant. It was full, beautiful coloring, just an overall perfect plant. I had it up in my kitchen window. I had a watering plan for it, if someone else tried to water my succulent I would get so defensive because I just wanted to keep good care of it. I absolutely loved my succulent.”
She decided to repot the plant and that's when she found it was fake!! Wilkes, a stay-at-home mom, shared photos of the plant, which does look to be real from the top. Once pulled from the container, however, it’s clearly not alive. She went on to say she feels the last two years have been a lie. Aww. Hey, it still is beautiful. It fooled her it'll fool her guests! ~grace
