Why giving plants as a gift is cool


Giving plants as a gift is really cool

- They adapt to any situation. It doesn't matter if it's a birthday, the birth of a baby, someone who has just moved into a new apartment... there are plants perfect for any occasion and personality. There are gifts that are very intimate, others that are very impersonal. Plants are in the middle of the pack, so they can be the perfect gift for your boss or your partner.

- It's customizable. There's a plant for every personality and lifestyle. Do you have a friend who travels a lot and is always busy? A sansevieria is perfect, for it is almost immortal. Do you know someone with an eccentric and funny personality? A Tricolor Marantha would come in handy. That trendy friend who's always taking pictures? It needs a Monstera Deliciosa. But don't limit yourself to just the plant. You can also choose a decorative planter that reflects the person's tastes.

- They have a symbolic charge. Plants have meanings, just like flowers. For example, a jade plant is considered good luck and is very long-lived, so it is usually given as a gift to newlyweds. Hoya plants are heart-shaped, so they are given as gifts on Valentine's Day. Sansevierias are very resilient, so they make good gifts for solid, everlasting friendships.

- They are good for your health. Human beings have positive reactions to all things natural. The green of plants makes us feel happier, reduces stress levels and increases productivity. As if that were not enough, people forge emotional bonds with plants and caring for them, watering them and watching them grow has a positive impact on mental and physical health. In addition, there are purifying plants that improve the quality of the air you breathe.

They are long-lived. Floral arrangements have their charm, but it is also true that they are ephemeral. In a few days it will end up in the trash, but plants have a much longer life span (especially if they are cared for properly), so it will be a living reminder of the occasion and the person who gave it.

- They are eco-friendly. The vast majority of the objects you give away tend to go in the trash after their life span has passed, contributing to the problem of pollution. Plants, on the other hand, purify the air, are sustainable, and biodegradable.

The perfect plants to give

as gifts

Plants are very versatile gifts, but not all plants are suitable for everyone. For example, you shouldn't give a super demanding orchid to a person who is just starting out in the world of plants. The best options will always be those plants that are easy to care for, that can become a green companion instead of a problem. Some of the ones we suggest to give as a gift are:
