Apparently, plants are people Shopping should be the easiest. Just get them a plant, right?
Wrong. (Well, most of the time.) I review Indoor hydroponic garden for WIRED and a proud plant parent for nearly 30 years, so I can say that even if you have a running mental catalog of your recipient’s houseplants and know which ones they don’t have yet, you may not know what they have room for, or what kind of substrate or container they want to use.
In general, it’s safest to stick with gifts that remind them of the plants they have, or that will help them care for them. However, suppose you know beyond a shadow of a doubt that your recipient will really like a plant. In that case, we’ve included a few mail-order options from companies we’ve tried and recommended, including a lucky jade plant and a fruit tree that bears edible fruit.
