If you’re unsure of what to buy, consider visiting our Massachusetts flower shop for a more diverse selection of houseplants at an affordable price.

When choosing a houseplant for a gift, it’s important to remember that they are low-maintenance plants. Here are some great options for a houseplant gift that don’t require much upkeep and last for years:

•  Peace Lily

A peace lily plant is an excellent choice for houseplant gift giving. The flowers are strikingly white and are easy to care for. If you are thinking of giving a peace lily as a houseplant gift, you should keep in mind its needs. It requires moist, but not wet, soil. It also loves a light mist of water.

A peace lily can be a beautiful houseplant gift for anyone. They are easy to care for and will last for several years. Peace lilies prefer a container about one-third larger than their root ball, which you can buy from our flower shop online.

• Primrose

While the primrose is not considered a long-lived houseplant, it is an excellent choice for growing indoors. It thrives in moderate to cool temperatures, but it does not do well in very hot temperatures. The ideal temperature for primroses is 50 to 65 degrees Fahrenheit. You should keep the primroses at a minimum humidity level of 60 percent with a humidifier for optimal growth. To increase flowering, you can feed the plant with a weak liquid fertilizer during the early stages of flowering, but this is not necessary, though.

The cape primrose is a hardy houseplant with exquisite flowers that bloom from spring to autumn. Also called Streptocarpus ‘lady slippers’ Deep Blue Vein, this variety is the perfect choice if you’re looking for a uniquely beautiful houseplant gift. It has lovely periwinkle blue flowers with a creamy white center. The leaves are glossy and green, and the primrose blooms year-round. This plant is easy to care for, and you can grow it on a sunny window sill.

You should keep the plants in a bright place away from direct sunlight to get the most beautiful flowers and avoid over-watering. You can pinch off the old flowers and move them outdoors if you want to extend the primrose flowering period. If you prune the foliage, it may bloom later in the season. You can buy these flowers in a basket or a tin pot, which will make a lovely houseplant gift.

You can find beautiful basket potted primrose plants at our Georgetown, MA, florist shop.

• Orchid

An orchid is an ideal houseplant gift because it can make any room more inviting and brings years of joy to the receiver. The plant is very easy to care for and will be happy to live in the recipient’s home for years to come. The orchid flowers are well-defined and have long stems. Its delicate foliage is beautiful and easy to maintain, making it a wonderful choice as a houseplant gift for any occasion.

While you may not be able to find an orchid plant that has flowers that bloom throughout the year, you can find orchid offshoots and start a new plant. These offshoots are simply smaller versions of the original plant. They are even easier to care for and can be repotted as needed. These new plants are an excellent choice if you are looking for a houseplant gift that will last for many years.

Orchids are also an excellent choice as a gift for someone because the flowers are exquisite, and you can choose from a variety of shapes and colors to give any room a tropical look. And unlike cut flowers, which can cost upwards of $30 or more, you’ll never have to worry about the plant dying after a few weeks of water and food. So, if you’re looking for a great houseplant that will last, you should consider an orchid.

You can get a wide range of high-quality orchids from our Massachusetts flower shop.

• Calla Lily

The calla lily is an ideal choice for potted houseplants. The best place to plant your calla lily is a shady, well-ventilated area, and they should be grown six inches apart. They can tolerate indirect light and moist soil, but you should keep it away from drafts and cool vents if you’re planting a single plant. If you’re planting several rhizomes, make sure to keep them well-drained and the room temperature controlled.

If you want to give a gift that keeps on giving, a potted calla lily is a perfect choice. Initially, you will need to store the rhizome in a dark, cool place. Once the rhizome has grown, you can plant it during the spring. Then, you can enjoy the beautiful, fragrant flowers of the calla lily.

Despite their fancy name, calla lilies are easy to grow. Unlike most flowers, they don’t need much care. Proper planting is the only thing to keep in mind when growing a calla lily. Its preference for full sun is the same as that of a hybrid lily. However, they do best in partial shade and should be ventilated during the winter.

You can buy calla lily plants directly from our Georgetown, MA, florist.

Purchasing a houseplant for a loved one is an excellent way to say you care. Many different types of houseplants make great gifts. Some plants require minimal care, while others are needy. When choosing a houseplant as a gift from our Massachusetts flower shop, make sure you choose one that’s easy to care for.
