Your front garden can typically be as little or high maintenance as you like. Most gardens will need a weekly lawn cut and strim to maintain a tidy front garden, but you could of course, replace your lawn with gravel if you would prefer. Plants also need regular watering (especially in the summer!), pruning and protection from pests and disease. And while many enjoy maintaining their garden plants, there are plenty of people who lack the time and knowledge or simply aren't able to take care of natural plants. In this scenario, choosing faux plants means you can enjoy the beauty of plants without having to dedicate hours to care for them.
