How lovely is it to give gifts? Choosing something that you know the person you love will enjoy is such a good feeling! From perfumes and gift packs of toiletries to chocolate boxes and huge bunches of flowers, gifts are always appreciated and well received with a smile. The problems only arise when you’re buying for someone who is picky about what they like. The good news? Everyone loves plants!

Indoor plants are often overlooked as a gift option, but they really shouldn’t be. Whether you give someone a one-off plant, or you pay for regular plant delivery, indoor plants should be on your priority gifting list. All you have to do is take a walk through a park to feel just a taste of what nature can do for a person. Imagine having that nature in the house all the time? Indoor plants make us feel good, so if you’re considering gifting anything for your favourite person, consider indoor plants. Let’s take a look at some of the best reasons you need to think about it!

• Feeling Fantastic. Having plants around can make people feel better with increased energy; it’s why they place them in hospital waiting rooms and offices. If plants in the office can help people to feel soothed, then the person you buy one for is going to love it. They can improve sleep and promote better healing – both good things!
• Improved State of Mind. Looking at nature is always going to improve mental health. Plants have the ability to lift the spirits and bring happiness, and both of these can improve your state of mind greatly!
• Excellent Decor Item. Plants work very well in any room in the house. If you gift a friend plants, they can have them in the entrance hall, lounge, kitchen and more. They fit anywhere and they make for an eye-catching piece as people walk into the house. Tabletop plants are just as wonderful as standing plants in the corner, and they still enhance the decor!
• Enhances Concentration. Plants just being in the vicinity allow people to concentrate on their tasks at hand. Whether the plants are in the home or the workplace, they’re going to help you to improve memory and retention. Nature stimulates the senses and it can make any environment instantly less stagnant. If you want to concentrate better on what you’re doing, plants are the way forward!
• Lowers The Noise. Believe it or not, plants can help to lower noise around you – perfect for the busy working individual in your life! They can help to absorb some of the noise around you and it makes every environment you’re in feel more peaceful. Peace is everything for the busy person in your life!

Giving gifts is the beautiful thing to do for a person, but gifting indoor plants is going to be far more meaningful than the usual bunch of carnations. Choose a plant that you know will suit them and you’ll find something they love.
