Which Fake Plant Wall is Best for Pool Owners in Queensland?

Ah, Queensland – the state with 5 of Australia’s World Natural Heritage areas and the home of over 5 million people.

While our business isn’t situated in beautiful Queensland, we’ve had our fair share of customers from the area. Recently, it seems like most customers in QLD have used our fake plant walls for their poolsides.

A fake plant wall for Queensland pool owners is a quick and easy way to transform your backyard into a lush oasis.

These decorative walls don’t just add a touch of elegance – they’re practical, durable, and incredibly low maintenance.

In this article, we’ll discuss why artificial plant walls are perfect for Queensland’s unpredictable summers, why they’re a brilliant addition to your poolside, and which fake green walls are our (and our customers’) top picks for your backyard.

Fake Plant Walls in Queensland Summers

Queensland’s summers are a mixed bag – gorgeous sunny days, but also sky-high humidity, sudden storms, and the occasional wild cyclone.

According to the Queensland Government, the average maximum and minimum temperatures in the state range from 21C to 32C. Yet, we know that it could go higher or lower, too.

When choosing a fake green wall for your outdoor space, it’s vital to pick one that can endure these conditions.

While most of our artificial green walls are UV-resistant (and fire-tested) and designed for outdoor use, they still need care to keep them looking pristine for years.

Here’s a detailed guide on how to protect your green wall Queensland from the region’s intense weather:

Cover it up during storms: Queensland’s storms can be fierce, with strong winds and heavy rainfall. Before a storm hits, use a lightweight tarp or waterproof cover to shield your wall. This prevents debris, dirt, and rain from damaging the panels or dislodging the installation. Ensure the cover is securely tied to avoid it blowing away. If this isn’t an option, make sure to check your green walls after the storms to make sure they’re still in tip-top shape (and they should be).
Clean it regularly: Over time, dust, dirt, and even bird droppings can accumulate on your wall. Give it a good clean every month using a soft brush to remove loose debris. For stubborn grime, a gentle rinse with a garden hose works wonders. Don’t be afraid of splashing water on your panel – they’re resistant. Still, we suggest avoiding harsh chemicals – warm water and mild soap are all you need.
Make sure it’s UV resistant: Queensland gets around 9 hours of sunlight daily. Some of these hours bring sweltering temperatures and scorching heat, which could damage an artificial green wall that’s not made to brave such conditions. Before purchasing your panel, make sure it’s 100% UV resistant and made to withstand the sun. This will prevent it from cracking, fading and deteriorating over time.
Coat it with UV spray: If your panels aren’t UV protected, use a bespoke UV spray to give them that extra layer of resistance. Even UV-resistant walls can benefit from an extra layer of protection. Apply it once or twice a year to help preserve the vibrant colours and prevent fading.

Taking these steps ensures that your fake green wall stays beautiful, no matter how harsh the weather gets.

Why Decorate Your Poolside With a Fake Plant Wall?

A fake plant wall around your pool isn’t just for looks – it offers practical benefits that make it a great idea for pool owners in Queensland. Here are some reasons why it’s worth the investment:

Privacy shield: Nothing kills the poolside vibe faster than feeling like your neighbours are watching over your fence. A dense artificial green wall acts as a natural-looking privacy screen, blocking out unwanted eyes while still looking stylish.
Bye-bye, ugly fences: Let’s face it – most backyard fences are far from glamorous. A fake green wall can cover up that boring, outdated fence in no time. For example, imagine transforming a rusted metal fence into a lush tropical backdrop or crating green patterns on your poolside wall. Our customization options can help you achieve exactly what you’re looking for in just a few days.
Increase your fence height: Need more seclusion? Adding an artificial plant wall on top of your existing fence can boost its height and make your space feel more enclosed. One of our clients did just that – they installed a green wall to block out views from taller neighbouring properties, giving them total peace of mind without having to install a new wall or fence.
Create art: A fake plant wall doesn’t have to be just a wall – it can be a statement piece. Remember the wavy installation we did a few months ago? Using artificial panels, we created a stunning wave effect along a poolside fence, turning it into a unique feature that guests couldn’t stop raving about. And with an idea and some creativity, you can do the same.
Low maintenance: Real plants are beautiful, but they come with a lot of work – watering, pruning, and dealing with pests. A fake green wall gives you all the beauty without the hassle. No watering, no leaves dropping into your pool, and no wilting in the heat.
Water-resistant: Pool splashes and high humidity are no match for a good-quality fake green wall that’s made to last for years. These walls are designed to handle moisture without warping or losing their shape. Plus, they won’t develop mould or mildew as some natural materials can. We’ve put years of work into figuring out the ideal blend of materials to give you the most durability possible, leading to up to 15 years of longevity for indoor panels.

1. Luxury Green Tropics

Over the years, this panel has been on our bestsellers list. It’s a panel that many customers love putting around their pools.

And we can see why – it’s all about that tropical vibe.

With a mix of large, lush leaves in various shades of green, it’s perfect for creating a resort-style retreat in your backyard.

This panel is easy to work with because it doesn’t have too much going on, but it’s not understated, either. It’s just right.

It’s perfect for turning a bland pool fence into a bright, cheerful feature wall. It can work well as a full feature on your poolside fence, but it’s also great as a focal point – an installation of only 1 or 2 panels.
