Make sure the plant is non-toxic if the person you are gifting it to has pets or little ones.
6. Jungle Playing Cards
My husband gave me this exact playing card set a few years ago, and they instantly became our favorite. Just to warn you – it’s easy to get distracted mid-game by all the beautiful house plant illustrations, but that’s half the fun! Any plant lover would be happy to have this set in their collection.
7. Hunter Clogs
For your serious plant parent on your gift list, these clogs will become a staple in their outdoor wardrobe. They can easily slip on for simple tasks like afternoon watering, trimming, or even a quick weeding session. They will keep your feet comfortable and dry.

11. Air Plants
Some people like the idea of plants but aren’t exactly that great at taking care of them. For those people, air plants are the perfect solution. They look whimsical and exotic but are incredibly hearty and easy to take care of. Pair a few with a cute terrarium, and anyone will be impressed.

In that case, the occasional spritz from a mister is just what the doctor ordered to give your plants a humidity boost. This is the perfect little housewarming gift or stocking stuffer.
18. Claw Gloves
At first glance, these gloves might look like a gag gift, but trust me, they are super functional. The nail-like ends of the fingers are perfect for digging, which will make jobs like weeding go by even faster. This is one of those crazy gardening tools the plant lover on your list doesn’t even know they need!
19. Modern Dried Flowers
Dried flowers are a timeless and classic gift that will endure the test of time. They can be combined with fresh flowers to switch up the look, and if stored properly, they will last many seasons.

Every time they use this vase, they will think of you, which will be the cherry on top. These modern beauties will complement any home decor and are sure to thrill any plant lover.
21. Supergoop Sunscreen
You might think sunscreen is just sunscreen, but that’s because you haven’t tried Supergoop. It might be a little pricy, but that’s why it makes an excellent gift. Its lovely texture goes on super smooth, and it protects you against the most brutal sun rays. You can’t go wrong adding this to a gift set or stocking!
22. Terracotta Irrigation Cones

It offers so many tips and tricks, making it the perfect gift for anyone who wants more plant babies. The photos are beautiful, the instructions are straightforward, and it makes a great coffee table book for plant lovers.
24. Love Plant Ladies Puzzle
This is another give my husband gave me that I definitely recommend. We brought this on one of our vacations and couldn’t peel ourselves away from it because it was so beautiful and fun. The pieces snap together like a dream (that’s so annoying when they don’t), and it’s a challenge but fun.
25. Nathalie Lete Velvet Throw Blanket
Keep that special person on your gift list cozy and gift them functional art with this beautiful jewel toned throw. Any work by Nathalie Lete is a great gift idea in my book, but this blanket is incredibly stunning, and the botanicals and just dreamy.
26. Gardening Overalls
These overalls are one of my mom’s Holy Grail products, so I had to include them. If you have a serious gardener in your life who has everything, these overalls are just what you need. They have double-layered knees to prevent scrapes, tons of pockets, cute colors, and the unique breathable fabric will keep you fresh and gardening as long as you want.
27. Grow Light
Give your friends with even the worst basement apartments the gift of indoor plants with grow lighting system. This plant box is not self-watering but provides the ideal light conditions and a reminder for watering. It’s the perfect solution for an indoor veggie or herb garden, making it so anyone can be a plant parent!
28. A Flower Subscription
A flower subscription service is a lovely way to bring a little bit of beauty and joy into the life of your favorite flower enthusiast. They will happily think of you every time their stunning bouquet of freshly-cut flowers is delivered to their doorstep.
The arrangements can be customized to suit any personal style and preference. Subscription cancelation is simple, or you can send just one bouquet if you prefer.
29. A Membership to a Local Garden
Experiences can be the ultimate gifts for plant lovers, and almost even city and town has a beautiful local botanical garden or horticultural society where you can gift a membership. These memberships often include members-only events, lectures, and other goodies, making this gift fun for an entire year.
