Why Send Plants for Mother’s Day?

Mother's Day flowers are beautiful, but they may not be the right gift for every mom. Some women prefer live plants over cut flowers. Consider the tastes of the woman you’re buying for when shopping for gifts. Maybe your grandmother loves to garden or maybe your mother-in-law loves a green living room with houseplants that add to the home decor. A plant gift is perfect for those with a green thumb or those that love gardening.

Care Tips for Your Mother's Day Plants

Proper care is essential to ensure that these living gifts thrive for years to come. Here are some tips to help Mom maintain her new plants, ensuring they continue to bring joy and beauty to her home:

Keep temperatures stable: Ideal temperatures can certainly vary from plant to plant, so we suggest looking up the exact right temperature for your plant. However, it’s a good rule of thumb that most houseplants are happy between 65°–80°F. It’s also important to avoid swings in temperature, so you should stray from leaving plants around cooler environments like AC units or exterior doors, but also keep them from heat sources like heating vents or fireplaces.
Water just the right amount: We all understand that plants need consistent watering to survive, but you also want to ensure you don’t provide too much or too little water for your green friends! It’s usually a good idea to keep your soil moist, so we recommend checking the top few inches of soil for moistness, and if it’s dry to the touch, then it’s probably time to rewater.
Lighting can vary for plants: Usually, indoor houseplants aren’t supposed to get too much direct sunlight. Rather, a good rule of thumb is to place plants in an area of your home where they can receive bright, but indirect, light. While this is general advice that works for many popular options you may choose for a Mother’s Day plant gift, it’s always worth looking up the specifics for the exact kind of plant you have.
