silk roses

Never-wilting fake flowers

Silk roses are artificial roses made from silk or synthetic fabric, designed to imitate real flowers without wilting or requiring care.

They appear in home décor, wedding arrangements, and memorial displays where longevity matters more than authenticity: The silk roses on her grandmother's grave looked fresh year-round.

The term sometimes carries connotations of tackiness or inauthenticity—something pretty but fake.
