Why Plants Are the Perfect Gifts

With the holiday season fast approaching, we know it can be stressful to come up with the right gift for every special person in your life. Plants are the perfect gift for anyone on any occasion. Let's talk about a few of the reasons why.

Gifts with Meaning

Plants are living forms that grow and flourish. Caring for plants and watching them thrive over time is a joyous feeling that your loved one will cherish. You'll be giving them the gift of tending to a living thing that rewards them with the beauty of nature and health benefits to boot.

Long-lasting Gifts

 When we think of plants as gifts, most think of flowers. While bouquets of flowers are beautiful, they tend to deteriorate quickly. Plants on the other hand can last a lifetime when cared for properly. They can even be propagated and one plant can turn into many more that your gift recipient can enjoy or give to others. Don't give beauty for a day, give enduring beauty by gifting a houseplant.

Unique, Personalized Gifts

A houseplant may not be what someone is expecting, but it is certainly a delightful surprise! Additionally, there is such a vast variety of houseplants in existence that you're sure to find the perfect one for every person on your list. You can gift your friend that's new to plants an easy-to-care-for (and impossible to kill) variety such as the snake plant. Have a seasoned green-thumb on your list? Gift them a carnivorous monkey cup for an exotic addition to their urban jungle. No matter who is on your list, there is a beautiful plant that would be perfect in their home.

In a world filled with throw-away items, give the gift of nature, wellbeing and elegance by gifting your loved ones plants.
