Houseplants are a great gift for any occasion. After all, they decorate the space, enrich the home air with oxygen and simply delight the eye. A beautiful home plant can be presented to mom.
How to choose a flower
To choose the right houseplant as a gift, first evaluate the space in which it will stand. If it's big enough, you can give your mom a big plant. For example, saffler, dracaena, cordilin or fatsia. If the apartment is small enough, choose calathea, arrowroot or asplenium. All of these plants are very beautiful, bright, unusual. They are perfect for a gift to any woman who likes various decorative things like small paintings, figurines and other nice little things.
If your mom is very fond of flowers, but does not have time to care for them, the best gift options would be senopoly, begonia, or cyclamen. These are beautiful, but unpretentious plants that do not require any special care. By the way, for the same reason, some cute cactus will be an excellent gift option. Cacti can survive in almost any conditions, and a bright spot of greenery on the windowsill will delight the eye in any case.
The undoubted advantage of a houseplant is its durability. It will delight the eye with its appearance for a long time, unlike cut flowers in a bouquet.
Flower delivery to the addressee
After you have chosen a gift, take care of its delivery. If it's cold outside, wrap the pot well in a tight, impenetrable film. It is desirable not even in one layer. Do not relax if you are carrying a gift by car, some plants only need to be in the cold for a couple of minutes, so that their appearance is irreversibly damaged. Otherwise, if the cold has a negative, but not fatal effect on the plant, giving a flower that requires several weeks of careful maintenance is somehow strange.
When buying a plant for your mom as a gift, think about which option she likes best - to get an already flowering plant or grow it yourself.
There are a certain number of indoor plants that should not be given according to the many signs. Ivy, loach and palm trees bring discord between spouses, disputes and quarrels. The ivy is popularly nicknamed "muzhegon", and the most beautiful bindweed - "widow's tears". If your mother believes in signs and various symbols, do not give her such plants.
When buying a plant, pay attention to its pot. The pot should be either pretty, expensive, or disposable. In the first case, you need to pay attention to the presence of a drainage system, in the second - buy a cute pot if your mom likes to tinker with plants.
