A blooming gift is a great option for those who love flowers and know how to care for them. A flower in a pot will delight its owner much longer than a bouquet of cut flowers, the main thing is to choose and present it correctly.
Instructions
Step 1
Do not choose exotic plants, it is quite difficult to care for them, and they may not take root in the apartment. Better opt for flowering houseplants. These can be roses, orchids, begonia, or geraniums. Also bonsai is perfect for a gift. In the summer you can donate potted garden flowers.
Step 2
Do not buy flowers with a strong smell, these plants should be grown outdoors, not in an apartment. The strong smell can cause headaches.
Step 3
In the winter season, the choice of a flower in a pot should be given special attention. During this time of year, the flowers in the shops are heavily fertilized to keep them blooming. At home, the plant will require certain conditions and care. Always pay attention to the appearance before buying. To bloom longer, choose flowers with closed buds that have not yet blossomed. Be careful when transporting, do not damage the plant. In cold weather, try to bring the flower home as soon as possible so that it does not freeze.
Step 4
Before donating a flower in a pot, find out if the person is allergic to flowers, and if there is a place for them in the house. The flowering plant is perfect as a gift for a housewarming, birthday or March 8th.
Step 5
Prepare the flower before giving. Make sure the soil is not dry, water as needed. If you bought a flower in a glass or box, transplant it into a beautiful pot and cover it with suitable soil. Choose a planter or pot by size, if in doubt, take a larger size.
Step 6
Don't forget about the decoration. Plants in stores are usually sold in beautifully painted pots, ceramic containers or wicker baskets. You can decorate a regular clay pot with your own hands. Match it with a beautiful colored ribbon or take beads and acrylic paints. Show your imagination and everything will work out. To make the gift look more presentable, you can wrap the pot in beautiful and bright paper. A beautifully designed gift will surely please the owners and will cheer them up.
Step 7
Pick up accessories. In addition to the flower, you can give a sprayer, a beautiful watering can or a clay figurine. Ornaments and figurines are usually sold at flower shops. A butterfly, heart, or bird works well.
Step 8
Only give flowers in a pot to close people, friends and colleagues at work. Such a gift is suitable for a beloved girl, grandmother or girlfriend, but a man is unlikely to like it.
