Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Anthropologie's Wooly Cacti Creations Don't Need Water to Bloom

— May 21, 2014 — Eco
Ensure that you never have to water your plants again with this wooly cacti set from home and fashion retailer Anthropologie. While cactuses are already known for being low-maintenance, the plants become even easier to keep healthy with this fun artificial flower design by Jacqueline Bovit.

The set of 5 cacti can be yours for a price of $148.00, a seemingly steep rate for a cluster of plants but an affordable amount for a one-of-a-kind art piece. Displayed in a green motif, these wool-made plants each feature their own terracotta pot.

The pieces are hand-made in Chicago and are representative of Jacqueline Bovit's fiber arts background. The artist's creations are a great addition to clean work spaces and empty window sills that are in need of a bright accent.
Trend Themes
1. Artificial Plant Decor - The demand for low-maintenance yet aesthetically pleasing plant options creates opportunity for retailers to innovate using sustainable materials and unique designs.
2. Fiber Arts - The rise in popularity of fiber arts creates opportunity for artists to showcase their skills in unique products which appeal to consumers' desire for handmade, sustainable home decor.
3. Terracotta Pot Design - The increasing attention given to the design of pots and plant containers creates opportunity for ceramics or home decor businesses to showcase unique designs that complement the rise of artificial plant decor.
Industry Implications
1. Home Decor - Businesses within this industry can use this trend as an opportunity to develop new innovative products like low maintenance, sustainable, artificial plant decor and unique pot designs to satisfy consumers' demand.
2. Artificial Plant Production - This industry can take advantage of the growing demand for unique, sustainable artificial plant decor products in order to innovate and design new options for consumers with interesting materials and designs.
3. Fiber Arts Industry - With the increase in demand for fiber art and the popularity of unique, handmade home decor products, the industry can grow by innovating Cactus-themed designs and products rich in texture, style, and sustainability.
