A common question among our customers is why, when, and to whom do I give plants? Read below to find out which occasion is appropriate to gift a plant and the reasons why.

Houseplants for Housewarming

Reasons:

• Naturally adds style and decor!

Keep in mind when buying a houseplant for a new plant parent, some are easier than others to care for. Don’t gift them with something that may be too difficult for their lifestyle. If they have pets, do some research to make sure the plant is not toxic. There are plenty of houseplants perfect for new plant parents, a pet-friendly home, or even seasoned plant parents.
