Today I’m sharing a fun giveaway for a 5 foot, faux fiddle leaf fig tree – just like I have in my living room!
*This post contains some affiliate links. Please see my full disclosure statement HERE.
Happy Wednesday! Today I’m so excited because I have a great giveaway for you! You know how much I love my faux fiddle leaf fig tree in my living room! Well, today, I have one just like it to give away to one lucky reader!
live vs. Faux
I’ve had several live fiddle leaf fig plants from both big box stores and the local greenhouse over the past few years. All seemed to do okay for a while. One even grew new leaves, and I thought I had mastered the care of a fiddle leaf fig. But then I moved it and that was the beginning of the end! The fiddle leaf fig does not like being moved! For all of the money I’ve spent trying to keep one of these plants alive, I should have just started with the next best thing – the faux!
Faux plants don’t care if I move them, I don’t have to worry about a watering schedule, and, most importantly, I can’t kill it!!! And, this faux looks pretty darn good! You can see where I compare it to a real fiddle leaf fig in THIS post. This is a 5 foot tree, and I still think for the low price of $58.50 it’s great quality! The branches and leaves are bendable and you will need to take some time to fluff it up when it first arrives. This tree comes with a “tiny” 4″ pot. You really need to put it in a larger container, and I shared my tips for making it look even more realistic HERE.
As you can see, this plant looks good season after season! It’s a decor purchase that I have never regretted or grown tired of! So, as a thank you, I decided to give away one of these faux fiddle leaf fig trees to one of you! To enter, just leave a comment below. I’d especially like to hear if you’ve ever had a fiddle leaf fig plant! And, as an extra entry, share this giveaway with your followers on facebook or instagram and let me know that you did in the comments. The giveaway will end on Sunday, August 11 at midnight. I’ll contact the winner via email on Monday, August 12! Good Luck!!!

I’ve never had one but have considered it…I’ve heard they’re not the easiest to grow which has scared me off…
Dawn Teo
We can actually grow them outdoors in my climate, as long as they are in full shade. Although I’ve got lots of things growing outside, I can’t seem to keep houseplants alive.
Wendy Donnell
I only have 2 faux plants this would be a great addition. Maybe I’ll try a live one.
Ruth Shave
I love the fiddle leaf tree! I’ve never owned one, but I think a faux would be a great place to start!
Jessie M
I have been debating on whether to go real or faux. I love the look of the fiddle leaf fig trees. Thanks for the giveaway!
Emily Vork
I have been dying to get a faux fiddle leaf fig! Now that our baby is coming in a few weeks and I’m going into overdrive on her nursery, I’m realizing that this is the perfect opportunity to put one in our home. And the faux version won’t drop leaves etc into her crib!
S
Just moved to a new house and have had two flooding incidents with some items being destroyed.
The plant might help brighten up the place.😀
Rita Renee Scott
I have been researching this tree for a while now for purchase. Looking for the best looking tree for the best value! They just add such a classic feel to any room, kind of bringing the entire room together!!
Deb
Good morning, Doreen.
I would love to win this lovely Fiddle Leaf Fig plant. It would go perfect in my dining room. That sweet plant would love living in Virginia. 🙂 🙂
Have a blessed day!
Deb 🙂
Allie
Yes, I bought 6 real fiddle leaf plants for my daughters wedding, years ago. They lasted for a while. Now, I have none and would enjoy a faux fiddle leaf!
Cheryl G McKnight
I’m sorry to say I’ve never had a fiddle leaf fig plant – I can hardly keep an ivy plant for more than a year. I’d be thrilled to buy some gravel soil cover if this ends up at my house! Thanks 😊
Joni
My friend has a BEAUTIFUL fiddle fig on her screened in. It is thriving! She gave me a branch to root, it’s not looking so well 😏
Nick
I got a fiddle leaf fig a few months ago. It was only a baby- maybe 11 inches tall. It has grown so much under the plant light i have for all my plants. I would love to give another a good home, faux or not 🙂
Kelly
I am currently going through my own fiddle leaf dilemma. We bought one after looking locally for what seemed like ages to find one, had it for 6 months, now it’s losing leaves like crazy! I WAS EVEN GIVING IT BATHS. It just wasn’t meant to be, so I would love to win the faux fiddle 🙂
Karen Robbins
I really like this tree and having it faux is even better. I don’t have much luck with real indoor plants. Thank you for the chance to win one.
Sue
Hi Doreen,
I love getting your emails showing pictures of your beautiful home, and all
your great ideas. You even post where to purchase some of your
steals! Your fig tree looks real and no chance of dying!
Someday I hope to bump into you, I live in Alburtis, PA.
I get to the Green Dragon once or twice a year, about an hour from my home.
I’m sure you are familiar with this great Flea Market.
Have a great day and take good care.
Sue
Doreen Cagno
Hi, Sue! I live about fifteen minutes from The Green Dragon!!! I drive by often, but haven’t been there in years! Isn’t that funny!
Joy
I haven’t had a fiddle tree, but my Dad does, it moved with him & lasted 2 years, it’s beginning to fade now though. Thanks for the giveaway!
Sherry M.
I have not had a fiddle leaf tree was considering it and keep hearing how hard they are to keep alive. So, the artificial would be a great alternate.
Laura Sharp
I have not yet had one! They are beautiful though and I’ve had a few friends who have them!
Sally Christiansen
I have not tried a real Fiddle Leaf as I have heard they are finicky, would love to try the faux one though.
Debbie Zupancic
Your plant is very pretty. I’ve never had a fiddle leaf fig plant before, but have always wanted a large plant for my living room and just couldn’t justify the cost.. So in order to be able to have one, I purchased some lightweight cotton fabric to try to create my own. Wish me luck….I hope it works!
Veronica Torres
I’ve never had a fiddle fig tree. It looks pretty nice for a faux tree.
Candy
I have never had a fiddle fig tree. Yours looks great in your living room. Thanks for offering the giveaway.
Debi Carlson Martin
Oh, the faux fig is a marvelous thing. My outdoor garden is lovely…but I can’t grow a houseplant to save my life!
Carolyn
Hi Doreen!!! I’m embarrassed to say I didn’t even know what a Fiddle Leaf was until you mentioned it! My dad was a Horticulture major at Penn State so I guess I didn’t get his knowledge! Anyway I think they are a beautiful plant and would love one for the corner of my dining room that doesn’t get sun but needs some greenery!!! Love your blog and told my best friend and others!!!
cyd
Yes, but only faux.
Diane Crews
This is a beautiful addition to any area…..and even better because you don’t have to worry about killing it! I’d love to have it in my home!
Linda Rhodes
My sweet mother and grandmother love figs the day I was born my grandfather planted a fig tree they have all gained their wings the house is torn down but the tree was so big and the figs was delicious and it’s still standing in Louisiana 65 years later.
Heather Minnick
I have had good luck with two plants. I would love to see the faux side by side …
Merle
I have a real one, would love to have a faux one that looks authentic! Thank you…love your sites! Follow you on Pinterest, Facebook and Instagram💖
SUSAN
Never had one but would love to. I’ve never even seen one for sale, of course I probably wasn’t looking. 🥴 Thanks for this opportunity! Love your blog.
Melanie Winter
I love fiddle leaf figs! I have never been brave enough to try caring for a real one. Faux sounds perfect! I have a crawling baby in the house, so a faux plant has to be the way to go!!! Curious baby and real plants don’t go well together!!!
Diane
Absolutely would love to win this faux fiddle leaf!
Carol Misakian
I’ve never had a Fiddle Leaf, but it looks stunning!
Sandy Engelke
Just the right fella for our little “farm-townhouse” ! Limited natural light here, so this would be perfect for a nook that needs something to warm it up ♥
cynthia
Every room needs something green and living (or faux! Fiddle leaf figs are a favorite but I have never tried to have one due to the difficulties of keeping one alive. Thank you for the opportunity to win one!
Joy D
Love the look and I can’t kill it!!!! Perfect
Andrea
I’ve always loved the look of the fiddle leaf fig and I’m a bit intimidated with keeping large plants alive. I also just get a kick out of saying fiddle leaf fig 🙂 Thank you for offering a giveaway! I’d absolutely love to win!
MaryLou Just
I purchased a real fiddle leaf fig just a couple months ago. Almost immediately it grew 2 new leaves and is looking great! After reading comments above, I will be sure not to move it. I would love to have a faux fiddle leaf fig to put in another room.
Sharon T
I would love to win this faux fiddle leaf! I have a live, small fiddle leaf and it is proving to be one of the most finicky plants I have ever had. Plants love growing on my dining table, including this little guy…good thing they grow slowly! So a large faux plant would be perfect in the corner of my living room!
Debbie
I would love this to put in my north facing windows – not enough sunlight for a real one!!
Erin Prohaska
I ‘rescued’ a real fig from our local grocery store (who doesn’t usually stock anything near like that) and my daughter and I watched for months as it was getting sicker and sicker until we couldn’t stand it anymore. I inquired and they gave it to me for 1/2 off and I’ll happy to report that it’s doing so well that it is growing MUCH taller than I was ready for it to be. HA! LOVE the idea of a faux that stays put at the size you want it, without all the fuss of a real fig. Thanks for the opportunity! 🙂
kelly
i have had one for a couple of years and have started 3 new ones from its clippings. i have never moved it. they get bright but indirect light and i give them 1cup/per foot of water (6 feet gets 6 cups) once they dry out. i also use a fiddle leaf fertilizer. even so, the original has dropped leaves, and seems stressed sometimes. It bounces back but is sort of wonky looking though 😀
Angela Conner
I have never had one before, but it’s gorgeous.
Keim
I’ve never tried to grow a fiddle leaf fig tree but would love to win a faux fiddle leaf fig. I love your decorating ideas! Thank you for taking time to share your posts!
Mary Smart
I am with you Doreen! Faux is the only way to go. I have used faux fiddle leaves outside on my porch and inside as well. I love them!
Tara Inman
MY dad always had a green thumb when I was growing up and we had plants everywhere, including a fiddle leaf that was massive. I tried a real one myself and never got the knack for it. A faux fiddle leaf might be my best solution?
Amy Durick
I would love to have this tree for my dark dining room since I can’t put any live plants in there!
Marielle Carlisle
Never had a fair fiddle leaf before, it looks wonderful!
Katie
I just remodeled my living room/dining room and the faux fiddle leaf would be a nice addition to my new room!
Melanie Smith
I’ve killed more houseplants than I care to admit. Faux is the way to go!!
kesha
I have never had a real or faux fiddle leaf fig tree. I have wanted one for a while and saw some real ones a few days ago. I decided against buying it due to my lack of a green thumb.
Irene
I had never had a fiddle leaf plant. Sad to say, but me and live plants just don’t get along, so a faux fiddle leaf plant would be wonderful. I don’t have very much greenery in my house and I know that would be a great addition. Thanks for the chance to win!
Angela
This faux fiddle is a beauty! I defer to your wisdom and experience and will only go faux.
Nancy
I’ve never had a fiddle leaf tree. Real or fake. They are pretty. I did have a real ficus tree when my son was about 2. I have the cutest picture of him sitting next to the tree with dirt strewn all over my floor. When I wasn’t looking he pretended to be a gardener!!!!
STACIE DOWLING
The plant is beautiful. I have never had one however have wanted to purchase one for a while, The faux would work better in my house as we live in the woods with very little direct natural light. I have not purchased one as it was so hard to tell which faux trees looked real. Thank you for the insights
Judi Robinson
I’m currently working on keeping two fiddle leaf figs alive. One is doing great, the other just required ‘surgery’ after an incident with a 4 year old and his ball. I’ve been googling a lot about how to care for them, thanks for the tip about not moving them too much!
I’d love a faux one for upstairs in my sewing room. I’m loving learning more about plant care now that my children grown, but have decided to keep them on the first floor since I tend to forget about them.😬
Your house is lovely.♥️
Shanell
I was unfamiliar with fiddle leaf until you mentioned it. They are beautiful! And I have an empty corner it would fit into perfectly!
Gail
I have a real one and it is on its last leg!😢 I moved it outside but no luck.🤷♀️. I loved it while I had it. Thank you for offering this kind give away!
Jennifer
What a GREAT summer giveaway! 🍃 I received a fiddle tree as a Christmas gift and just loved it! I placed little fairy lights on it, watered it and shared photos of it with friends and family. After the holiday season, I moved my treasured plant and that was the beginning of the end. I would LOVE to receive another plant that we could enjoy throughout the year! Thanks!
Beth Shonts
It would be nice to have a fiddle leaf fig that I could put where I needed, instead of where it needed to be.
Gloria Wagner
I’ve never had a fiddle leaf fig plant (real or faux) and would love it for my living room!
DeJa
I love this faux fiddle leaf tree. It looks so realistic. Thanks for the beautiful pictures and inspiration.
Gloria
Love it! Would be extremely happy to win the fiddle leaf fig plant.
Sandra
This looks so real and would look nice is my reading nook. Thanks for offering the give away!
Sheila Jackson
I’ve never had one, but I’m with you – faux is the way to go! Would love to have this beauty in my home. Really enjoy following you!
Karen Mechler
I believe I owned a fiddle leaf fig when I was a young bride (about 38 years ago:), I do remember that it didn’t like to be moved. I do have a fruit bearing fig in my backyard, it was almost decimated by a mouse overwintering under its protective cover but I’m happy to say that it is doing it’s best to recover.
The more I read your blog, the more I think that we are soul sisters! I love your style, your screened in porch and that you are a gardener, God lover and do it yourselfer, as am I.
I also live in PA, near York. I will be coming to Lititz in the next couple of weeks, do you have a shop there? If so, I would love to visit it! Your fiddle leaf fig is lovely and I would love to own one! Thanks for all your posts, I always look forward to them, and God bless!
Karen Mechler
Doreen Cagno
Thats so amazing that you live in York, Karen! I don’t have a shop in Lititz, but have thought about it often! It’s such a great little town to visit! If you get a chance, grab lunch at The Tomato Pie Cafe! I was just there today with a dear friend! It’s our favorite place to lunch in town!
Karen
Thanks for the recommendation, Doreen! I will try the Tomato Pie Cafe when I visit.
I also find it interesting that your last name is Cagno, my maiden name was Calcagno.
Carol Stedel
I, too, had never heard of a fiddle leaf fig tree till you shared about it. It would be a great addition to my decor. Thank you for sharing, and for your inspiring posts ideas etc.
Anne Marie
i have not had a real fiddle leaf tree but do love them. I know that, with my black thumb, faux is the way to go!! Thanks for all the great fiddle leaf tips.
Darlene Hoffman
I’m horrible about keeping inside plants alive. Either under or overwatering and never enough light! An artificial plant would be just the ticket!
Leslie
I’ve never had a Fiddle Leaf Fig either but have the perfect spot for one. It reminds me of a plant that was the rage back in the mid 60’s and early 70’s. It was called a Rubber Tree Plant, and if you had one in your home, and it actually grew….then you were a candidate for Homemaker of the Year!!! Finicky, finicky it was. Thanks for all you do and for this giveaway!
Doreen Cagno
That’s so funny, Leslie!!! Actually, those rubber tree plants are making a comeback! I’ve seen them on several blogs now!!!
Leslie
A comeback? Oh, my! They can just come on back without me–would rather have that faux Fiddle Leaf Fig! Thx.
Syafiqah khan
I’m a new plant lover and have always wanted to venture out to big tall plants . I’ve always loved the look of the fiddle leaf fig tree but on numerous occasions, whenever I wanted to purchase one, there’s some hesitation due to my lack of knowledge on how to keep them alive! I’ve heard so many stories on how hard it is to take care of the fiddle leaf fig tree. Winning a faux one would have been ideal. I could still own it, look at it, appreciate its shape and form but not have to worry about killing it ! Thank you for giving one of us an opportunity to win one of these.
Gentry
Would love it! I kill all my houseplants- even a snakeplant!
lori
Awesome! Would love to have one for my living room too! I have an awesome container just waiting for it!
Rafael Torres
My live fiddle leaf fig tree did not survived inside. I want to experiment with a faux one this time.
Connie Minniear
Found your site because of your free printable of hymns and verses. Thank you! I would love. to see this Fiddle Leaf tree in my newly decorated living room!
Sarah Brueck
I’ve had one for about a year – after a rocky start it seems to be doing ok. Still, I’d love a larger one that I could put in my bedroom (that has very low light, so faux would be best!). Thanks for offering this giveaway!
EDSEL ELIZALDE
I have not owned a fiddle fig before. But my girlfriend has and I love the look of them.
Leigh Dailey
Never had one, but sure is beautiful!
Christine Irvine
Doreen, my house doesn’t get a lot of sunlight so I have trouble growing plants, but love them. So I’ve never tried such a large plant like this. I would love to win it!
Thanks,
Christine
Eleanor Fodrey
Yes I would love to win that. It would be a great addition to any décor. Love your blog by the way and the goodness you stand for.
Lisa
Hi, I have never had one of these but I have wanted one. They are beautiful. I love reading your blog and thank you for the giveaway. 😊
Marion Durham
I’ve had various faux plants over the years—ficus, succlucents, poinsettias, etc., but never a fig plant! I hope I win!!!!
Becky
I have never had a Fiddle Leaf Fig tree…real or faux. I always enjoy your blog. Can’t wait to see what’s coming up for Autumn.
Suzanne
Your living room pictures are beautiful….especially the Christmas one! I’ve never had a fiddle leaf fig tree myself , nor does anyone I know here in New England. 😉
Robin Wilson
Hi Doreen,
I’ve alwsys wanted to try a fiddle leaf fig tree but friends I’ve known have killed them one by one. The faux plants I’ve seen have been very pricey, so i haven’t pursued it. I think yours is great looking and I can see why you have loved it. Thanks for all your posts. Love keeping up with you!
Robin
Jeanne
I would love a faux fiddle leaf fig tree! I bought a real one and thought I was taking such good care of it but it’s dropping it’s leaves and is on it’s ‘last leg’. Faux is what I need!
Andie
Oh man, I have recently gotten very into houseplants, but have stayed clear of the ever popular fiddle leaf fig! I do have a rattlesnake calathea that has my heart, and 3 pothos plants. The Pearl & Jade is my favorite.
Sam brumley
My wife loves fiddle leaf figs! We have 2 babies tho who love dirt so we haven’t been able to have a potted plant in the house. Realistic faux is a great looking alternative!
Shared on my FB and Instagram!! Thanks!
Michelle B.
I have been eating a fiddle leaf dog for forever!!!! But I’ll be moving soon, so I’ve been super hesitant to order one! Thanks so much for the info! I hope I win! 🙂
Michelle b.
*fiddle lead fig, darn auto correct 🤦🏻♀️
Gloria Wagner
Love it! Would be great to win a fiddle leaf fig plant 🌱!
Donna L. Barrington
Gosh, I’ve been looking at these online for a while. Would love to try it out!
Patricia Morris
Good day!
I read your articles in my news reader & saw that you were giving away a faux Fiddle Leaf Fig (ficus lyrata) and decided that it would be a wonderful addition to our study as there just isn’t nearly enough light to grow a real one in there. Additionally, I thought it might provide some incentive or create a sense of competition with our existing live one. 😉
Doreen Cagno
That is sooo funny! Thanks for stopping by to enter the giveaway!
Stacye Hixson
When it comes to real plants I have to stick to a snake plant or succulents. I just will not spend the amount of money for a real one and then have it die. Also As bad as i want a fiddle leaf fig i haven’t found a faux one in my price range so I definitely hope I win and if not I’ll check the source for your tree. Thanks for the giveaway and I’ve shared to FB and IG
Brooke
I’ve never had one, but I’ve been eyeing one forever!
Linda Jernigan
What a wonderful give-away! I love plants, real or faux and this Fiddleleaf fig plant is adorable! I’ve been itching to get one since moving to our new home three years ago, as our address is ACTUALLY on Fiddleleaf Circle! Perhaps this will be the one 😉
Also I want to mention that I love the name of your blog! Much thanks for all your contributions to the blogging world 🙂
Debbie Westbrooks
I need a beautiful faux one for our condo! Love this one!
Mel
My poor fiddle leaf only lasted a month before it died. Would love to have a faux one!
Laura
Looks so good! Faux is much easier than real!
Brenda Johnson
After hearing how hard fig leaf fiddles are to grow, I decided to try a faux one. I like the one I have, but it’s small. If I win this tree I actually think I will give it to a daughter-in-law who just got a new home. Have a wonderful day!
Brandon vosika
I used to have a beautiful fiddle leaf fig, I bought it at a local plant shop here in Seattle. It was quite small but I cared for it for several years and it grew to be a few feet tall 🙂 I wouldn’t consider them too terribly difficult to care for but they do need a bit of attention. Unfortunately when my relationship with my partner ended, she took it when moving out. Of all the things I lost and missed the fig most of all. In any case, I love artificial plants in edition to my living ones and I’d love to have this 5 foot faux fig join me in my apartment. I hope you’re doing well and having a lovely summer 🙂
-Brandon
Maria Blomgren
Looks so real‼️
Jo
It’s lovely!
I’ve never had a fiddle leaf fig but I’ve killed enough small plants to know a faux would be a good investment!
Rasma LaBuff
Hi Doreen,
I would love to get a faux fiddle leave fig plant for my home. I haven’t tried growing the real one. But I do have a bunch indoor plants such as Christmas cactus, spider leave plant, peace lily to mention a few which together with one faux plant brighten up my living and family rooms. After moving into a new home, there is a spot where a plant would fit perfectly. I used to have a plant there. Unfortunately, due to poor lighting, my plant started to drop leaves and I had to move it to a different spot.
Lo
100% can relate to this!! I’m workin in keeping mine alive but am loving and he (yes I totally named him 😂💁🏼♀️) can’t come with me!! So sad. So I really love this idea!!
Cheryle Boring
Hi, I’ve considered getting a live fiddle leaf fig but live plants don’t seem to well under my care🍂 I would love to have a faux one! That would solve that problem, wouldn’t it ?! Thank you for posting this give away. 😁
Christine
Thanks for the tip on not moving my fig. Its still alive after 6 month. Id love to have a fake one for my husbands classroom.
Becky Allen
Great post I cAnt keep one alive thank you for all your posts
Vickie
I’ve never had a fiddle leaf fig, but I’d like to have a faux one in my living room. It looks good in your space. I definitely don’t have a green thumb. Faux all the way!
Kelsey Rutt
I’ve never owned a real fiddle leaf fig tree (I can’t keep indoor plants alive) but love the small fiddle leaf tree I have that we found at Goodwill 😘. It adds the perfect touch to our bedroom!
Kasey
The fiddle leaf fig is on my list of plants to get soon but I have not had one yet. I’ve heard they can be a bit finicky so I’ve held off.
Regi
Faux plants sure have come along way! They look so realistic these days. I’ve never owned a fiddle leaf fig because I’m the person who can kill a succulent, let alone a finicky plant like that. I’d love to have a faux fiddle leaf, and have the perfect spot for one! Thanks for doing such a fun giveaway!
Heather League
My mother gave me a Fiddle Fig over a year ago for Mother’s Day. To my surprise, I have managed to keep it alive. This is a huge accomplishment for me since I can kill a cactus without trying. I have the Fig in my shop, so it gets plenty of light and regular watering (once a week). However, my home is another story. Every living plant I bring in, just dies! We don’t have a lot of natural light coming in, so I think I’m going to have to go the faux route. Free is awesome, but under $60 is a great deal too since a real one can cost close to $100. Love the pics btw.
Cindy
I would love to have a real fiddle-leaf fig, but have steered clear of purchasing one because of your exact situation. A faux would be PERFECT. My thumb is not as green as my grandmothers. That woman could resurrect dead plants! Lol. Such a nice giveaway. Thanks for the opportunity!
Tamara
I love these trees! I always wanted one but I have a black thumb. However, one day I decided to treat myself & I purchased one! I ❤️❤️Ed it. Then the leaves began to turn die from the outside in. I went to & called my local nursery & tried the suggestions offered…no luck😥 I just can’t seem to let it go…it looks so sad & mistreated. So, everyone who comes in my house can see that I DO NOT have a green thumb & that I cannot seem to fix & or just let things go. ( I wish I could add a picture…soooo sad)
Rachel S.
Seriously, it’s Faux all the way for this gal! I think that most of my issues with living plants is sunlight! ☀️ My home is shaded by some beautiful Maple trees so I have very little direct sunlight… and little even filtered.
Between that and my lack of attention to said living plants… they always die, eventually.
Faux plants have come a long way and are looking amazing these days!
No shame here for using them 😊
Kym Ryan
That Fiddle Leaf looks great in the corner of your living room! I would love to have one>
Ann Vincent
I have a black thumb but love the look of plants. It would be awesome to win this, as I have the perfect spot for it in our familyroom!
Lauren
I’d love a fake fiddle leaf fig plant! Perfect for my office/guest room – I always forget to water my plants in there…
Sarah
I’ve been wanting to get a fiddle leaf fig for a while but am so scared I will kill it! Faux seems like a better solution!
Sadie Goss
I have two Fiddle leaf fig trees and I adore them. I might be jinxing myself but both of mine are doing rather well.. For now. I will share this my other plant loving friends:)
Jennifer Smith
Since I have a very brown thumb, I love to use faux greenery in my home. I love that I can’t kill them and they always look nice. No shame in going faux. I have 2 real plants in my home and they are alive, but just barely. I am still trying! Thanks for your wonderful blog:)
Janice Davis
I have wanted a faux fiddle leaf ever since I saw it on QVC. It looks so realistic. How wonderful that you are giving your followers a chance to win one. I’m never lucky at give always but I am entering this one. Thank you for the opportunity. I’m sharing.
Carol Cameron
I’ve never had a fiddle leaf and appreciate the chance to have one. Thank
you.
Tresa Kitchen Hargrove
OMGOSH How flipping adorable! I’m showing this to my 4 year old granddaughter Zoey she started jumping up and down saying “Nuna, I’ll water this plant for you, it will grow to be the BIGGEST in all the land” (can you tell we watch a TON of fairytale movies?). I shared to my Facebook : ))
Vee Simpson
Hi Doreen, over the past year I have considered purchasing a fiddle leaf plant. The information you have shared is completely in line with my thoughts that it would probably be best for me to get a faux fiddle leaf plant. I would love to win this beauty. I have a couple of ideal corners in our home that would be perfect. also thank you for the tips! Many blessings!
Eileen
I love the fiddle leaf fig plant! I just recently had mine die. I think due to overwatering. Would love a fake one to replace it!
Angela
Would love this! Shared on Facebook.😊
Kelly B
I’ve never had a fiddle leaf fern and hadn’t heard of them until our daughter moved from Lancaster PA to North Augusta SC, and she said everyone has them down south. I think the cost and their finickiness scared her a bit. Looking forward to exploring your website!
Cindy
I only have a small one, and would love to get a larger one at some point.
Kate E.
I have never had a live fiddle leaf fig because I heard how hard they were to keep alive, but I’ve had my eye on a nice fake one for a while now.
Rae
I’ve wanted a fiddle leaf fig for some time now. I just kept looking for the best price. I would love to win this one!!
Solomon
On my 3rd fiddle leaf! One had to move outside, doing well now. Second one didn’t make it. Third one seems to be the charm!
Suellen Allen
What a lovely idea for a giveaway! I, too, have a small home. I have learned from you many times as you create new looks. Bless you for sharing your life with us.
Michelle Wahlquist
I’ve always loved fiddle leaf fig plants but I’ve never even seen one in my area to purchase… alive or faux! Rexburg Idaho here- I’d adore one!
Jamie Hunter
Never had a fiddle leaf, real or fake! Been eyeing them for a while though!
Cathy Hathcoat
I’ve never had good luck with fiddle figs. Perhaps the faux with thrive in my home. LOL
SherryB
My daughter gave me a beautiful, full, glossy and healthy fig last fall. Unfortunately it survived only a month. I am usually good with both indoor plants as well as my garden. A faux fiddle leaf fig would be perfect for me! Thank you for the chance to win.
Sharon Heinzel
Beautiful faux fiddle leaf plant! Looks so real! I would love to have one to accent a room in my home! Thanks for the opportunity to win one!
susjc
I have never owned a fiddle leaf, but i really like the looks of yours and it seems so easy to take care that I wouldn’t kill it! thanks for the the contest!
Barb
I have my first fiddle on my porch and it’s liking that spot BUT I read your blog and am dreading moving it! Love faux plants.
Meghan
I can’t seem to keep a FLF alive! Thanks for the giveaway!!

I have looked at the fiddle leaf fig but hesitate to buy one because of the difficulty in growing them. I love plants but just can’t grow them in my house. I use and love the faux plants!
Faith
I love the look of this faux plant! I’ve never had one but can think of so many places to put it in our home
Peggy Allen
I don’t have a fig tree but it looks really nice. I can only grow faux plants.
LOL.
Becky
Brautiful!! I have dozens of live houseplants but have purposefully never gotten a FLFb because of their finicky reputation. I would love a faux version though!
Abby
About a year ago, I bought myself a little fiddle leaf fig and for a while it was growing great! New little leaves every month or so, but then I repotted it and it all went downhill. I’m a little scared off from buying another live one because they can be so difficult to care for when you don’t have the perfect window light situation in your home! I love the faux one in your home and I think it would help brighten up my day to see a little green every morning in my living room too 🙂 I also shared your giveaway on my Instagram account @travelthroughmylens100!!
Karen Funk
I have never had a fig tree, my house is smaller size, but I sure would find a place for it if I was the person chosen as the winner of this beautiful “plant.” Thank you for the chance to win this.
Justine
Hi Doreen,
I am new here. Would love to read more of your blogs. Glad I bumped into your page on Facebook.
That is a pretty Fiddle leaf fig. Hope I can win one. More power to you!
Best
Laura Harrie
Doreen, your faux Fiddle Leaf Fig does indeed look real and at that price it is a real deal. I do have real FLF which I have kept alive for over a year. The problem is it thinks it is bush and refuses to into anything that looks tree like. I have read articles, trimmed off bottom leaves and am considering taking off the top few bush leaves! That beautiful faux tree would be well loved at my house and just might inspire the real one to grow taller!
Wendy Vura
I love the look of a fiddle leaf!! I’m the same way with “Easy” succulents- can’t keep them alive ! So I buy the Faux & they look just fine!!!
SATISH K DUDDEBANDA
It’s a great idea for a giveaway! We have a new home. I have learned from your blog many creative ways of decorations that help to create new look.
Thank you for doing this . I would love have one.
Cassidy
I had a live one that died a slow death. This fake one would be a much better idea!
Rosemary Barker
I have never had a fiddle leaf tree. I am afraid I am one of those people who have “black thumbs”.
My mother had the best pair of “green thumbs” that I had ever seen. Sadly she has been gone 12 years now, (and she didn’t pass on her talent to me.) Oh, she tried, but usually the joke was that she told the plant that “it would be ending its life soon” because I would be taking it home. I would love to have a gorgeous faux fiddle leaf tree. It’s beautiful and I can not kill it!!!
Maggie
I’ve never had one! Too afraid I’ll kill it.
Lucia
I love fiddle leaf trees! I used to have one but unfortunately didn’t survive. I’d love to have a faux one! I would survive forever lol! Thank you por your post and this opportunity!!
Trina Christenson
Never have had a fiddle lead fig, real or faux. I have trouble remembering to water my plants. A faux plant would be wonderful. Don’t think I could kill it. 🤔🥰
Tara
I’ve been wanting a faux one for awhile!
Un Lee
Oooh please choose me. I have been trying to tszuj up a mail order baby fig leaf plant with spots. Spent hours googling the best fertilizer, how much not to water and the perfect amount of light, determined to be one of the lucky owners. But Figgy is demanding too much of my emotional and physical energy. It shoots out a skinny leaf to toy with me and then loses another leaf as if to say, “Give up bub! “I can’t break free, imprisoned by guilt, desperation and false hope. Please free me from Figgy. I want a thriving designer plant but I need my life back. You hold the key.
Becky J
What a lovely giveaway!! Your living room is gorgeous and this fiddle leaf fig is stunning! I am returning to teaching this fall after homeschooling for 10 years and would LOVE to tuck one of these next to my desk! Thank you!
Susan Jones
I’ve read how hard the real ones are. I am pretty sure I will need a faux one. please & thank you. Shared.
Erica Griffin
I almost bought one last month, but decided that our home’s conditions were not optimal for a fiddle leaf, and didn’t want to risk killing a $200 plant!
Lynn Shaffer
I have never had this plant but have admired it in so many of your posts. It looks so real!
Myriah
Oh my goodness I would love to have one of these cuties! I’ve been wanting a real one, but the minimal natural light in our house probably wouldn’t bode well for it! The faux one seems like a perfect and real looking fit!!
Julie Cole
I love your faux fiddle leaf tree! Thank you for all the wonderful ideas you share!
Cindy
What a wonderful giveaway! I do own a real fiddle fig and it’s grown like crazy! It’s over 5ft tall now and I seriously need to think of repotting it in a bigger pot! It’s so tall that it’s leaning now so I guess I need to stake it! My hubby hates it because it’s in the way of my window so if I had a faux one I could put it anywhere! Lol! Thanks for the chance!
Shelly Foshee
I don’t have one, but two of my children have live ones. I actually got a lesson this weekend on them. They don’t like too much water and they don’t like to be moved. I won’t have to worry about that with this one!
Linda Fox
What a thoughtful, special idea! I would love a nice faux Fiddle Leaf Fig Tree. Lovely, as is all your posts!
Thanks for the chance to enter!
Denise
I have a real mini fiddle on my windowsill! I bought it a few months ago at a farmers market here in San Diego; I was planning on just buying a few succulents and noticed the little fig 🙂 it was her last one and only $12! Not quite ready to risk a full size fiddle so I’d love to win the faux!
Michael Kelsey
I have been contemplating the idea to purchase a Fiddle Leaf Fig for several months, trying to decide to get a live plant or a faux plant. A 5 foot size Faux Fiddle Leaf Fig sounds that a great idea, I would love to display this plant in my Living Room, so everyone could see it as they enter my home.
Barbie
I love Fiddle Fig but have never dared get a live one. My daughter has one & its struggling.
I think faux is the way to go!
angie
I have failed with fig trees before. This is a great alternative! I love your blog and appreciate what you do. THANKS!
Leslie Wireback
I’ve wanted a faux fiddle leaf dig and haven’t wanted to spend the money. I know there is no way I could keep a real one alive so I have not tried….no green thumb for me.
luyda
Hello from Russia! Good afternoon, Doreen and all your subscribers! I accidentally got to your site, looked at articles and decided to subscribe to receive your advice. Very wonderful artificial plants. At my place fresh flowers grow, I love my plants.
Doreen Cagno
Welcome! I’m so glad to have you here!!!
Tracey
Unfortunately I can’t keep anything real alive, so I have to go with faux plants in my house! Love your blog!
Vickie
I do not have enough light to grow real plants inside, so this would be a lovely solution!
Sandra Atkins
Real plants are great but my house has a limited amount of sunlit spots to put them. Fauxs liven up those dark corners where nothing will grow.
Chantel Parker
I have never had a fiddle leaf 🍃 fig tree before. I love all 💕 plants, but I think 🤔 there is something extra special about these. I have been looking for one for my home 🏡. I hope 🤞 I’m the lucky 🍀 one. I put this on my Instagram @chantelsmile16
Amy Marie Pritchard
I have one but it’s down to its last leaf! 😢 next one will be faux for sure!
Jeri
I cannot keep any houseplants alive so a faux plant would be perfect!
Jeffrey Eaton
I’ve never had one but always admired them.
Iris D
I love fiddle leaf plants. My daughter and I each bought a small one this spring. Hers is growing beautifully and mine is slowly dying. Thanks for the chance to win one that won’t die.
Wendy Michelle Jenkins
I love, love, love this plant and have been wanting one forever. I also shared the post on FaceBook.
Phyllis Theisler
I’d love to have this Fiddle Fig Tree to put into my bathroom with no windows. I love the pop of green it gives to your room. Thanks so much for this offer. Keeping my fingers crossed.
Patti Vannette
I have a real fiddle leaf plant, but a faux would be so much nicer since I’m not a green thumb! Thanks for the opportunity!
Nancy L. Smith
I love your home pictures! I have debated on getting a live or faux Fiddle leaf Fig Tree. The live ones are pretty hard to locate in my area – maybe one day will jump in and purchase. Thank you for the chance to enter your giveaway!
Jessica
It looks great! I’ve never had one myself, but have wanted one for years now. I don’t have a green thumb, so the faux would be my best choice.
Erin
I would love one mostly because I do not have a green thumb. Living plants seem to always find their demise in my care, however, I’m happy to report all humans under my care are thriving! 😂
Gretchen
Love the look of the fiddle leaf but have never owned one. What a great giveaway!
Gretchen
Love the look of the fiddle leaf but have never owned one. What a great giveaway!
Stephanie
I’ve never had one, but have been itching to get a faux fiddle leaf for my home. I know I’d kill the real thing …🙈
Carla
I would love to add a fiddle leaf fig plant to my den which doesn’t get a lot of natural light. The green would add a pleasant touch to my room.
Lori
I have wanted a fiddle fig tree for years, but I have more of a black thumb instead of a green thumb. I have looked at artificial trees in the past but normally have issues with quality or price. Yours is beautiful, and I would love to have one like it.
Rebecca
I don’t have anything remotely close to a green thumb! A faux fiddle leaf fig tree would be perfect! Thanks for the giveaway!
Rhonda Copeland
Doreen,
I love reading your blog. It’s very well rounded with all the things I enjoy reading about and learning how to do. You inspire me to step out of my comfort zone and go for it. Your home always looks inviting- something I’m trying hard to accomplish. Thanks
Sherri
I can not keep anything alive, this would be perfect! By the way I love the gray chair, looks so comfy 🙂
Beth
I have never had a fiddle leaf fig, but have wanted one for a while now. Just haven’t had the guts to try a live one with my black thumb🤣. This faux looks perfect. Thanks for sharing your tips.
Nancy Niles
I have never had one – real or fake. I have a brown thumb so never do real plants.
Annette
I shared on Twitter.
Kim Harkey
If I ever did have one will it has now passed on so a faux one would be something I could handle!!
Elizabeth
Whoa is my life because of my love for the Fiddle Leaf! I’m on my 4th. First one died in a month. Second one lasted about 6 months. The two I have now are reaching the six month mark. One is surviving and one is thriving. Lol I talk to them, fertilize them, and nurture them but I still haven’t figured out the right combination of sun, water and love.
PS I used to go to the green dragon when I lived in PA. My brother still goes almost every week
Jan Lenon
I have always loved the look of the fiddle leaf fig tree, but knew I would not do well with a live tree. They add so much comfort to a room! It could be used year round in your home.
Farrah
Hi Doreen!
My husband and I just got our first apartment and I’ve been dreaming about getting a faux fiddle leaf tree before we even got any furniture!
I never post but I saw the giveaway and had to give it a chance. If we win we will name it “S(h)adie”. 😀
Doreen Cagno
Love it!!! Wishing you luck!
Cynthia
My mother’s room at Senior Care needed a little greenery this winter, so I bought a faux one.
She enjoys when we decorate it for each season. I have a little corner that would appreciate a little greenery too!
Linda
I have never owned one as I don’t seem to do well with live plants. Therefore, a faux plant seems like the perfect solution. Thank you for the giveaway.
Maria
I’ve never had a fiddle leaf fig but would love to win one for my new home 🙂 thank you for the giveaway!
Rosa
Gosh, I really want this tree! Thank you for the chance to win. I have a real one that I purchased at Costco about 8 months ago but I’m having a hard time finding the right spot for it to thrive. The leaves are dropping and turning brown. Would love the faux so as to not have to worry about it ever looking so sad.
Stephanie Byrd
Oh man, I just got a fiddle leaf fig and it had root rot! Had to do the whole root surgery thing! Would love to have a faux one! 😍 (Mostly because I doubt this one will live! Haha)
Doreen Cagno
Wishing you luck with that FLF!!!
Kassondra Steffen
I’ve never owned a fiddle leaf fig but have been wanting one for ages! I’ve researched countless times, trying to decide between real and fake. I’m usually a “real all the way!” girl, but when it comes to some things….the pros really know how to make a faux look GOOD. Would love to win this for the corner of our great room!
Doreen Cagno
I totally get it, Kassondra! I’m usually a “real all the way” girl too! But, after several fails, faux it is!!!
Rachel
I have loved your faux fig leaf tree since I first saw you bring it in. I follow your living room decor every season and love how you change it up. Keep up your blog because it has given me great pleasure.
Jan
I’d love to have this tree and use your tips to make it look real!
Rayna Carter
I tried having a real Fiddle Leaf Fig, and I LOVED it, but it turns out I don’t get enough sunlight in my apartment. I would be SO happy to win a faux one to bring back some greenery in my space! 🌿🤞🏻
Brooke A R
I’ve had two and they died. Faux is the way to go!
Rebecca G.
I’d love to win this! I’ve always wanted a fiddle leaf fig, but have been put off by the price and their temperamental nature. Fingers crossed!
Jessica
I just bought one for my daughter’s room but I’d love one for my living room too! It hasn’t been delivered yet but I hope it looks real!
Mirian
This is such a beautiful tree! I have never tried to keep a talk one slice because I’m pretty positive I won’t succeed and I’ll feel bad for the plant. This over would look perfect on my living room! Thanks for this opportunity!
Wendy Price
What an awesome giveaway. A fiddle leaf would look awesome in my living room. It looks so realistic and not having to water it is a huge win in my book.
Kamaria
Greetings! I’ve yet to purchase an indoor tree but have working my way up with various houseplants. My green thumb has gotten better over time 😄. Thanks for hosting such an awesome giveaway!
Andrew
We just got a real fiddle fig and are trying a figure out the watering schedule as to not over or under water it. A real looking faux tree would be great since you know it will last. Thanks for doing the giveaway!
Nicole Terry
I haven’t had one – I’ve never actually owned a plant (real or fake) – but I’ve considered it recently because greenery really livens up spaces, and I’m moving into a house next weekend. I figure now that I feel like a real adult, I should put more consideration into decor that makes a house feel like home. 🙂 Hope I win!
Rebekah
I have never tried growing a fiddle leaf fig. Hearing how tough they are to grow scared me off. But I love the look of the plant! Your faux plant looks like the perfect solution!! I would love to win the giveaway and add it to my home. Thanks for sharing your home and heart with us!!
Emily
I’ve never had a fiddle leaf fig… would love one though! I have a very curious toddler who loves touching plants/decor so I’ve been hesitant because I know they can be a bit finicky! A faux one would be perfect for our lifestyle in this season of young kids!
Kim Kraft
I would love to have a faux fiddle fig tree. I am not very good @ keeping house plants alive. I either over or under water what ever it is…I think I have a black thumb! My grandmother is 98 and she always had amazing gardens and loved playing in the dirt but I seemed to not have Inherited that trait from her.
Debbie Rhoades
I have never had a fiddle leaf fig plant before, but they are very pretty! Thank you for the chance, Doreen!
Shelley
Never had a fiddle leaf fig but just started foster caring a baby girl and would love it for the nursery!
Jason
Never had a real fiddle leaf. Faux greenery is always my go-to. Really love the look of this one and it would be a great addition to our living room!
Elizabeth Logan
Well darn . . . two days late and a dollar short! LOL I would have loved to have entered your giveaway as I’ve been wanting to get a fiddle leaf. Oh well.
I also wanted to tell you how much I enjoy your Blog and your designs. Keep up the good work and Congratulations on the upcoming wedding and new grand baby. Being a Grandmother is the best job ever!! 🙂
Doreen Cagno
So sorry! And, thank you so much on the congrats! We’re terribly excited!
