Fake plants behind speakers a good idea?

I have 2.5 feet from the back of my floorstanders to the wall, and 3.5 to the side, I have seen some people placing silk plants behind their speaker, good idea or not
would the silk plant cause diffraction or absortion
thx

Contrary to what beavis says, the do apparently work.
