I can never keep plants alive but managed to spruce up my garden with zero upkeep – it took minutes & no one has a clue
NOTHING makes your front porch look more inviting than some greenery.
But if like us, you have a tendency to kill every plant you own, then you may just be in luck!
A savvy homeowner named Kelsey, who lives with husband Ryan, shared a video to TikTok (@newbuild_newlyweds) revealing her super simple tip for sprucing up your garden – using a £12 bargain buy from Amazon.
“If you can’t keep plants alive, here’s a hack for you…” she says.
“Get some planters…and faux fern stems from Amazon.”
She’s then seen putting one planter on each side of her door, before carefully positioning two bundles of the faux greenery in each to really fill it out.
Showing just how realistic they look, she quips: “They look just like the real thing, and won’t die!”
She captioned the post: “They’ll never know!”

The video has since gone viral, racking up over 199k views and several comments from very impressed social media users.
“I’ve been buying plastic plants for the garden, we have a south facing and it’s easier to keep rather than real plants dying,” wrote one.
A second praised: “Brilliant!”
A third commented: “I did the same thing yesterday.”
Meanwhile, a fourth wrote: “My husband ordered these exact ferns for me for our front porch!”
Another added: “Might wanna put some rock in the bottom so they don’t blow away.”
And a further added: “I keep seeing this fake plant thing. Sshhhhh! Also, ‘plant’ them inside or after dark, water occasionally & “trim” to really sell it!”
