Plant-astic plant lover gifts for every budget
It’s fun but yet it can be so exhausting. That’s right, we’re talking about finding the perfect gift for someone you love! If your search is on, I’ve got you covered!
As I sit down to write this gift guide, I can hardly believe it will soon be November! My goodness, each year just goes by faster and faster.
With Christmas right around the corner, it can sometimes be stressful. A lot of us try to stick to a budget and spread out our purchases to make them more affordable. It’s a great plan really. Christmas should never be about mounting debt and endless stress. If it is, we’re doing something wrong! Wouldn’t you agree?
Don’t worry though, these great gift ideas for plant lovers aren’t just for Christmas time. They’re great for any occasion: birthdays, Mother’s and Father’s Day, celebrations of milestones, or simply just thinking of you!
Whether you are looking for fun, function or a combination of both, you’ll probably find it here. These are my top gift ideas for orchid lovers, plant lovers and green peace lovers too! 🙂

1. bring the outdoors in with vertical living wall planters
Living vertical walls, like those found at Green Bean Buddy are gaining in popularity for a reason. The healing power of plants and nature brought indoors is a really fun way to enjoy your plant babies and reap their health benefits.
These highly versatile hydroponic panels can be used indoors or out. In office spaces or homes. They are self-watering with water level indicator, mounting instructions and everything needed to create your own backyard or indoor oasis.
I think what I love about these the most is the idea behind them. These vertical living walls don’t have to be used for just plants and flowers. You can grow your own hydroponic food as well. It’s sustainable, healthier and a whole lot of fun to eat what you grow yourself.
Buy as many or as few panels as you’d like. Your options are only limited to your imagination! This unique and creative gift option will surprise and delight the receiver, guaranteed!
2. plants as gifts that can be delivered to the doorstep!
Plant lovers love plants, right? 🙂 Maybe your giftee would appreciate a beautiful new tree? A shrub for privacy. Or some other small plant ideal for apartment balconies?
Giving a plant to someone who loves them is a gift that keeps giving. They will think of you with gratitude every time they see it. It’s a great feeling when we can give a gift that is beloved, right?
Plants given as gifts delivered right to your recipient’s doorstep are convenient and thoughtful. With this gift option, you can stay on budget and give something that will last for many years to come.
Are you thinking, “Well, that sounds great. But I don’t know where the best place to buy plants from online is?” If so, have a look at Nature Hill’s Nursery.
They are the world’s largest online nursery. Family owned and operated since 2001. Working with them is simple and enjoyable. They will ship your order via FedEx Home delivery. All you need to do is enter your recipient’s address and you’re done! Your gift will be delivered right to your loved ones door.
3. consider Bootstrap farmer
Do you have an aspiring farmer or greenhouse grower of any sort in your life? Bootstrap Farmer is the place to go.
Lights, pots, DIY greenhouses, tools and their own gift ideas. They’ve got it all and much more. Almost anything a gardener or plant lover needs can be found here.
I really love this company and I think you will too. They have a strong customer satisfaction ethic and love what they do every day. Quality at its finest.
They offer a 30 day, no hassle money back guarantee. If you don’t love it, don’t worry. Any time I see this promise from a company, I feel comforted. A lenient return policy means they stand behind their product and are confident in it. Shipping is also FREE within the lower 48 states with orders of $49 or more.
4. must have high quality pruning tools
One of the things every responsible plant parent will tell you is that many of their plants must be trimmed on a regular schedule. A pair of high quality pruning shears will be just what the doctor ordered!
I can tell you from personal experience that few things are more frustrating than low quality pruning shears. You risk damaging the plant permanently and hurting yourself.
Bill and I love Garrett Wade for gifts like this. Last year for Christmas we got almost all of his brother-in-law’s gifts from here. Every piece we purchased was of high quality and very popular!
They’ve been in business since 1975 and have a very loyal following, including us. We’ve never once been disappointed with their customer service or quality.
Garrett Wade even has gift ideas broken down by category. If pruning shears aren’t the right fit for your friend or family member, check out this gift selector. You’ll find totally unique and unexpected gifts.
5. bulb gardens
Bulb gardens make the best gifts! They are creative, easy to care for and absolutely beautiful! We have given these to two of our family members and they loved them!
Bulb gardens make excellent gifts for anyone on any occasion. They take up only a small amount of space but have a huge impact. I couldn’t get over how beautiful they were. Best of all? We can enjoy them over and over again!
Interested in seeing more options? There is a wide variety of bulb gardens to choose from!
What’s your favorite?
6. plants on display
Show me a plant lover who doesn’t love to beautifully display their hard work and I’d be amazed! Keeping plants thriving, happy and healthy takes a lot of effort.
Whether your loved one is low on space or has tons of room to grow, there is a plant stand to fit every budget and need.
This one pictured to the left is easily one of my all-time personal favorites.
Plow & Hearth is one of the most incredible places to shop. Everything we have gotten from there has been top notch quality and really unique. Better yet are their prices and sales! You can save a lot of money using their gift ideas under $25.
Still not sure what to do? Maybe their HUGE catalog of gift ideas will help you find the perfect fit! My bet is you would not be disappointed with anything you pick.
You can also find tons of great plant stands here in my shop.
7. beautiful glass plant misters
Certain plants require more humidity than others. Orchids, for example, need that extra boost of moisture to maintain health. Tropical plants need to be misted daily if not kept in a humid environment.
You can make that task a whole lot more glamorous for your gift recipient. These beautiful and well made plant misters will not only look nice sitting on the shelf. They will make taking care of houseplants a whole lot easier! The handles are sturdy and comfortable in the hand.
Inexpensive and long-lasting. You really can’t go wrong with this gift.
8. pot hanger decorations
Don’t you love these? I know I do! I bet your gift recipient will too. Animal pot holders are such a brilliant idea.
Your friend or family member not a fan of cats? No worries. There are tons of adorable animal pot decorators available to choose from.
Affordable on any budget and a fun gift idea. Unique gifts are the best kind! 🙂 Wouldn’t you agree?
9. House plant subscription box
Hah! You know the cheeky saying, “There’s an app for that?” Well, it’s just my opinion but I think we could also include, “There’s a subscription box for that!”
In recent years, subscription boxes have become really popular. To be fair, it’s for good reason. You can discover products or items that otherwise would have never been known.
This House Plant Box is a fun way to give your plant lovers what they love the most. Different options are available every month. Pick the one that best fits what you’re looking for.
I haven’t tried these myself so I can’t vouch for their quality or lack thereof. If you are interested in this gift idea, have a look at their about us page.

All My Best To You & Yours,
I came back on here because I vaguely remembered a post on gardening-related gifts and bingo, found it! It’s my mum’s birthday coming up in 10 days and then in June it’s father’s day and I’m in need of inspiration (especially given the restrictions at the moment!) I’ve always been curious about those indoor veggie plants and the terrarium thingybobbies too. I love the design of that metal plant display, that’s definitely something both my parents would really like. Going to see if I can find similar in the UK. Really excellent suggestions! xx
You are so sweet, Caz. Thank you! I am glad you found some inspiration. ? Sending you loads of love & well wishes!
Well of course the cat pot hangers are my favorite on this list, Holly! Great selection here 🙂 My mom is an avid gardener so I’ll be checking out these finds 😀 I’m loving all of your sites as they are all so helpful!
Aw, Christy! You have genuinely made my day with your comment! I’m with you – those cat pot hangers are adorable, aren’t they? 😉 I hope you have found something that both you and your mom will love! Sending loving hugs and warm thoughts your way, dear friend! ?
