If you’re planning on traveling to someone else’s home for a holiday gathering, you may already be stressing about gift ideas for the hostess. Even when meals are a collaborative effort, arriving with a small gift shows your host or hostess that you appreciate them opening up their home to you.
A go-to standard for hosting gifts is a bouquet of flowers. While cut and arranged flowers are certainly nice, they don’t offer the same advantages as giving an orchid or other live houseplant. This holiday season, surprise your these holiday-themed indoor plant gift ideas for your host or hostess.
While we can fill pages with reasons you should gift indoor plants this holiday season, here are the most important ones along with some specific hostess gift ideas to help make the holidays even more special.
Flower bouquets make a beautiful presentation, but they might not even outlast your leftovers. The anthurium, on the other hand, is the world's longest-blooming houseplant!
With its red and green colors, this plant is the perfect Christmas decoration. When Valentine's Day rolls around, your host will enjoy those heart-shaped leaves and will certainly appreciate your thoughtful gift all over again!
Preparing a Thanksgiving or Christmas meal already comes with enough chaos. Don’t add searching for a vase to your host’s to-do list!
