About us

A New Zealand brand focusing on artificial plants and home décor

Verdelisse Home makes artificial plants good enough to be mistaken for the real thing — and to stay that way for years.

Who we are

One narrow obsession

We sell artificial plants. That is the whole business, and keeping it that narrow is the reason ours look the way they do.

We started because the same problem kept repeating: the corner that gets no daylight, the north-facing hallway, the apartment nobody is home in for a fortnight at a time. Every one of those rooms wants a plant, and every one of them kills a real one.

The artificial alternatives were mostly bad. Not badly shaped — badly repeated. One flat green, one leaf moulded a hundred times over at the same angle, a plastic collar where the trunk meets the soil. The eye catches that in under a second, which is why so many people gave up on the category entirely.

So we build against it. Silk foliage instead of moulded polyester, several tones of green across a single plant, real cured wood for trunks, and a wire armature through every stem so a branch can be bent to your room and stay there. Foliage is UV-treated before assembly, because untreated greens turn grey-blue in a bright window within a few years and that is the failure that ages a piece fastest.

Everything arrives potted and finished. No separate pot to source, no polystyrene to hide, nothing to assemble on the floor of your living room. And because a plant has to earn its corner, every order carries a 30-day money-back guarantee — live with it in your own light before you decide.

What we stand for

Three things we will not compromise

01

Convincing, or it does not ship

Every piece is judged beside its living counterpart at one metre, in daylight. If the two are easy to tell apart, the sample goes back to the maker. It is a blunt test and it fails more samples than anything else we do.

02

Built for year ten

UV-stabilised silk, cured natural wood, weighted stoneware and cement pots. A plant that looks right on day one is easy. Looking right after a decade beside a sunny window is the part worth paying for.

03

Plain about the details

We publish what a piece is made of, how it is put together and what happens if it is not right. Anything we would rather you did not photograph closely would not be worth selling in the first place.
