Artificial Bucida (Bucida buceras) - large tree with a tiered habit - 240 cm - Artificial plant

À propos
Artificial Bucida: a 240 cm architectural tree
Uncommon in interior decoration, the Bucida buceras captivates with its tiered branching. This artificial Bucida reproduces its structure: a single, slender light brown trunk from which almost horizontal branches extend, adorned with small dark green leaves grouped in rosettes. These successive tiers create an airy and graphic silhouette, very different from bushy trees.
A large format for a high-ceilinged living room or lobby, for indoor use only.
Height: 240 cm, including the pot.
Foliage: small dark green leaves in tiered rosettes.
Use: indoor only, not treated with UV protection.
Maintenance: no watering required; dust the leaf tiers with a feather duster.
Delivery: 20 cm black plastic nursery pot, without a decorative pot.
Weight: approximately 2.8 kg.
Our partner producer ships this large tree themselves, packaged to protect each of its tiers.
Description
Conseils d’entretien
Caring for your artificial Bucida
✨ Dusting
Its horizontal tiers form small trays where dust can settle. We recommend dusting them with a feather duster every two weeks, starting from the top to avoid re-dusting the lower levels; a stepladder is helpful for the top of the tree. Once or twice a year, a hair dryer set to cool can thoroughly clean the rosettes. No products or soapy water are needed.
☀️ Placement
This Bucida is intended for indoor use only. A real Bucida requires a lot of light; this replica can stand in a windowless hallway or a north-facing living room. We recommend protecting it from direct sunlight through large windows, which would fade its dark green color, and not placing it near a radiator or air vent.
🪴 Setup
With two people, remove the tree from its packaging and straighten it by the trunk. Then, unfold each tier of branches to restore its horizontal shape. The 20 cm pot fits into a 25 to 30 cm decorative pot, weighted at the bottom with rollers to balance its 240 cm height.
📏 Allow for the height
Once in a decorative pot, it stands nearly 2.50 m tall: it requires a ceiling of at least 2.70 m, a mezzanine, a hallway, or a double-height space.
A feather duster for top-to-bottom dusting and a ceiling tall enough to accommodate it: your Bucida will retain its elegant tiered appearance.

Tout ce qu'il faut savoir Artificial Bucida (Bucida buceras) - large tree with a tiered habit - 240 cm - Artificial plant
Can artificial Bucida be installed outdoors?
The artificial Bucida is designed for indoor use only: without UV protection, its foliage would fade outdoors in the sun, and the wind would tip it over at its height of 240 cm. It is at home in a living room, lobby, reception area, or showroom, regardless of the lighting. In front of a large window, choose a location that does not receive direct afternoon sunlight to preserve its dark green color.
How do I dust a 240 cm artificial Bucida?
Dust the artificial Bucida with a feather duster every two weeks, starting at the top and working your way down level by level; a stable stepladder makes the higher branches easier to reach. Its horizontal tiers collect dust, which is why regular dusting is important. For the centers of the rosettes, a blast of cool air from a hairdryer once or twice a year is enough. Do not use soapy water or any cleaning products, as they will dull the small leaves.
What ceiling height is required for the artificial Bucida?
The artificial Bucida measures 240 cm including the pot; placed in a decorative pot, it gains a few centimeters and reaches nearly 2.50 m. Allow for a ceiling height of at least 2.70 m so that it does not touch and retains some space above its crown. It is ideal in old living rooms with high ceilings, converted workshops, mezzanines, lobbies, and commercial spaces. In a home with a standard 2.50 m ceiling, a smaller tree will be more suitable.
Does artificial Bucida pose a danger to dogs and cats?
The artificial Bucida contains neither sap nor pollen and therefore poses no plant toxicity to your animals. As with any artificial plant, the risk is mechanical: a puppy or cat chewing on the small leaves could swallow pieces of them. A large tree may also attract climbing cats; in this case, a heavy, well-weighted planter will prevent it from tipping over. If any pieces are swallowed, contact your veterinarian.
Artificial or real Bucida: which to choose for an entrance hall?
An artificial Bucida is better suited to an entrance hall: these spaces are often lacking in light and are subject to drafts and temperature fluctuations, all conditions that cause a real Bucida to lose its leaves. The artificial version retains its full foliage without watering or natural light. A living Bucida only makes sense in a very bright, heated conservatory, with regular maintenance provided by an attentive person.
How to stabilize an artificial Bucida in a cachepot?
The artificial Bucida stands 240 cm tall and weighs approximately 2.8 kg, housed in a simple 20 cm black pot supplied without a decorative planter: its centre of gravity is therefore high. Choose a heavy planter with an inner diameter of 25 to 30 cm, pour pebbles or gravel at the bottom, place the pot and fill in the sides. Finish with decorative pebbles. This weighted base prevents any tipping in the event of a collision.
Why does the artificial Bucida have horizontal branches?
The artificial Bucida mimics the typical growth habit of the Bucida buceras, whose branches grow almost horizontally in successive tiers around a single trunk. This tiered structure, with small leaves clustered in rosettes, gives the tree a light silhouette that lets light and sight pass through. After delivery, spread out each tier to restore this shape, as transport can sometimes compress the branches.
L'essentiel concernant Artificial Bucida (Bucida buceras) - large tree with a tiered habit - 240 cm - Artificial plant
Artificial Bucida (Bucida buceras): characteristics and benefits
Bucida buceras (now classified under the genus Terminalia), is a tropical tree in the Combretaceae family, native to the Caribbean, southern Florida, and Central America, where it often grows near the coast. It is known for its layered growth, zigzagging branches, and small leaves clustered in rosettes, which have made it a popular subject for bonsai and large indoor trees. This artificial Bucida replicates this architecture at 240 cm: a slender light brown trunk and tiers of small dark green leaves. Lacking UV protection, this tree, delivered in a 20 cm nursery pot, is intended for indoor use only.
Where to place a large artificial Bucida?
Its height and airy silhouette make it ideal for large spaces: a living room with high ceilings, near a cream sofa and a wooden cabinet, a building lobby, a mezzanine, a hotel reception area, or a shop showroom. Thanks to its layered foliage, it fills the vertical space without blocking light or views, which also makes it an interesting feature in front of a large window. It structures an open space by defining a living room area or entrance. To pair it with large living specimens, explore our decorative trees and shrubs.
How to care for an artificial Bucida?
Dusting: every two weeks, from top to bottom.
Rosettes: cool air with a hairdryer once or twice a year.
Light: indifferent, away from direct sunlight from a window.
Heat: away from radiators and hot air vents.
Shape: layers of branches spread horizontally.
Artificial Bucida or real Bucida buceras: which one to choose?
Indoors, the real Bucida buceras requires very bright light, ideally a few hours of sunlight, constant warmth, and regular watering; in a room that is too dark, it loses its leaves and becomes bare. A living specimen over two meters tall is also rare and expensive, and difficult to transport. The artificial Bucida offers the same spectacular architecture right away, without light or watering requirements, in a lobby or deep living room. For a very sunny conservatory and a careful enthusiast, a living plant is possible; elsewhere, artificial is the safer choice.
