Choosing a potted plant gift
A potted plant keeps growing long after a bouquet has faded, and every plant here is in stock right now. Use the filters above the grid to narrow things down. Here's what each group is best for.
Terrariums and DIY terrarium kits
A terrarium is a miniature garden under glass. Closed terrariums with a cork lid recycle their own moisture, so they need watering only rarely. Open terrariums need a light misting now and then. Our DIY kits come with the glass, plants, substrate and tools, which makes them a good gift for someone who enjoys a hands-on project. Kits with a Ficus ginseng bonsai inside combine two gifts in one.
Bonsai
The Ficus ginseng bonsai (Ficus microcarpa), with its thick, sculptural roots, is one of the easiest bonsai to keep indoors. It likes bright, indirect light and regular watering when the top of the compost dries out. It's a thoughtful gift for a new home, a retirement or someone who likes a slow, mindful hobby.
Ready-potted plants in ELHO pots
These compact houseplants arrive in a pink ELHO Vibes decorative pot, so there's no repotting and no wrapping needed. Choose from easy trailing plants such as golden pothos and satin pothos, the upright ZZ plant, the Chinese money plant and flowering options like the red anthurium and kalanchoe. They're a good size for a desk, shelf or windowsill.
Statement plants
For a housewarming or a new office, a tall plant makes an impression: weeping figs, dragon trees and Dracaena around a metre tall, delivered ready to place in a bright corner.
Pet-safe gifts
If the recipient has cats or dogs, choose plants listed as non-toxic by the ASPCA. In this collection those are the parlour palm (Chamaedorea elegans), the spider plant (Chlorophytum comosum) and the crested bird's nest fern (Asplenium). The pet line on each product page gives the detail. See all our pet-safe plants.
