My self, I like the silk ones better. You have to look realy close to tell the difference.
That nips that.
I get silk too, the real ones are poisonous to pets anyway.
I'm with you on that. I've seen silk ones that I was hard pressed to determine that they were silk, they were that good.
Nice thing about that is, no killing it by forgetting to water it. You can just wrap it up in a plastic bag for next year. They cost about the same as the real ones and you can reuse it for several years. A real savings there.
