If you’re new to plant care, we recommend starting with easy-to-maintain plants like pothos, snake plants, and ZZ plants. These plants thrive in various light conditions, require minimal watering, and are highly resilient—making them perfect for building confidence as a plant parent.

Which plants make the best gifts?
It can depend on why you’re giving it to the recipient! Often, the best plants for gifts are those that are easy to care for and visually appealing, such as succulents, peace lilies, and snake plants. However, there is a whole world of meaning and symbolism to gifting plants that you can learn about from our blog.
Which plants are best for a cold or warm climate?
Even when choosing an indoor plant, your climate can still be a factor. From the natural humidity of many warm climates to the drier cold of other climes, choosing an easy-to-care-for plant with flexibility will help ensure your gift thrives. Pothos, succulents, and bamboo are easy choices for any indoor climate. Our florists would be delighted to walk you through the many options available to you.
What is the best-sized plant for a gift?
The best-sized plant for a gift depends on the recipient's space and preferences, but medium-sized plants (6–10 inches tall) are often ideal. They’re easy to display on desks, shelves, or window sills without overwhelming the space. Larger plants make fantastic home decorations and should be taken into consideration when gifting.
