Fresh cut flowers are a beautiful gift, but unfortunately they can only last for so long, with only one to two weeks before they are thrown out along with the memory of who bought and gave them as a gift. A living plant on the other hand can last a lifetime and serve as a constant and happy reminder of the person who bought it for you each time the plant is looked at.
A competition on our Give Plants Facebook page asking why plants are a better gift than flowers showed that the majority of people agreed with the concept of plants being a lasting, living gift that keeps on giving. Taking care of the environment and the fact that the person giving the gift has taken the time to pick the right plant for the recipient making them feel even more special was also mentioned in many of the comments. The feedback was very overwhelming and reiterated some of the reasons why Give Plants was started as a place to order plants online for delivery for gift-giving occasions.
At Give Plants, with so many beautiful plants to choose from that are sure to last a lifetime, the decision to gift a plant rather than flowers should be simple. A plant that will continue to grow stunning flowers for years on end rather than a bunch of flowers that will die after one or two weeks is definitely preferable. For example, buy one of our real house plants for sale online today – a beautiful Camellia or a gorgeous Peace Lily – and give the lucky recipient the chance to watch it blossom for years to come and remind them of how much you care about them. It's a gift that lasts a lifetime and is perfect for all occasions. Buying indoor plants online in NZ has never been easier with Give Plants.
