Pros: affordable, good quality and looks real; also you can bend stems to fill out to your liking
Cons: the little white parts come off easily as you fuss with it or even just take it out of the box....they're like little bits of styrofoam that stick everywhere, and some fall to the bottom of the inside of the jar and are stuck there
Overall though, I love this piece and it was a great way to add some color and softness to my kitchen that doesn't get a lot of good regular sunlight for live plants. Very happy.
