Where to get the best fake plants?

I have a corridor and a bathroom that get no natural light at all, and even in the bedroom, I have to keep the blinds closed all the time as I"m on a main road. So no real plants will grow, but I thought I'd quite like to add some artificial ones for a bit of greenery.

I've got a couple from Ikea, and they're OK but not fantastic - the green of the leaves is just wrong, somehow, and that's the giveaway.

Any idea where to get more realistic artificial ones? With or without flowers, anything that just looks convincing.

I've seen some in Homesense that looked nice... if theres not one near you, maybe a TK Maxx with a good home dept?

thanks, will try both. Not sure I've ever noticed plants in TKMaxx, and I can't quite remember what home sense has, as it's out on the retail park somewhere, but worth a look.

Bloom do very good artificial plants and flowers. I was given some as gifts and they’re very realistic.

Have a look at Abigail Ahern's website - not cheap but very realistic looking plants.
