Rope Glass Hanging Planter

For a plant enthusiast, this set of hanging rope glass planters is perfect for propagating new plants!

There are 9 glass planters on each rope. Each planter holds a capacity of 3-ounces – just large enough to hold fresh plant cuttings. The planter can easily be hung in a kitchen window for easy access, and because of the small size, won’t block the view through the window.

This hanging planter could also be used to hold fresh cut flowers, and would look simple yet elegant in any decor.

Step It Up: To make this gift extra special, include a bouquet of fresh cut flowers from your local grocery store so your friend can display the flowers right away. If you have plants you want to share, you could also include cuttings from your plants for your friend to grow. Sweet!


Orange Dwarf Pomegranate

Your green thumb friend is unlikely to have this awesome orange dwarf pomegranate bonsai!

This 5-year old plant is sure to put a smile on any plant-lover’s face. The plant comes in a clay planter and is about 7″ tall. This Bonsai Pomegranate has a rich historical and mythical lore. The flowers are an orange-red color. This is a perfect plant for windowsills.

Step It Up: Pair this plant with a set of bamboo plant labels so your friend can name this plant with one of the bamboo markers.

 


Clay Planters

I know. You might be thinking they are just clay pots. But… they are rectangle clay pots and they are not that easy to find! Clay pots are healthy for plants, and anyone with a passion for plants loves to use clay pots. Especially when they are different than the usual round pots we are all so used to seeing.

This set of three clay planters is sure to be a favorite for the green thumb on your gift list!

Step It Up: Add several succulents and potting soil to this gift to make it complete.


Stumpy Money Tree

I just love these stumpy money trees! They have so much character! I also love the stone pots they come in. This is such a quirky plant, it’s sure to make your friend happy. 

Step It Up: Pair this plant with an indoor plant fertilizer – your friend will thank you!


Paulownia Wood Pots

These Paulownia wood pots are seriously cool! ANY plant loving person would love these pots!

These pots are handmade out of Paulownia wood – a light-weight gorgeous wood that stands out among all other pots. There are two pots in this set, so you get twice the gifting power!

Step It Up: Pair this set of pots with a Peperomia plant and a Song of India plant for a perfect gift.


Air Plants in Glass Planters

Okay. I’m one of those “green thumbs”. I get it from my Mom (thanks, Mom!). I love plants. I admit, this set of air plants in glass planters is not one I currently have, but it is definitely on my Wish List!

I love how unique this set is! I think the colors are very retro and I love vintage, retro things. I think this set would be a perfect gift for the “green thumb” in your life. Give it a try – I bet they thank you!

Step It Up: Pair this set of glass planters with a few more air plants. You can never have too many air plants!


Marimo Moss Balls Terrarium

I love Marimo’s! They are just the coolest moss balls ever. ANY person who enjoys plants will have fun with a marimo moss ball terrarium.

The moss balls in this vase thrive on being rolled around and moved frequently. This set makes an awesome gift for displaying on a desk – the owner just rolls it around and watches it move. I think it’s a great way to relieve tension and stress.

Step It Up: Pair this plant with “The Little Book of Mindfulness” – a cool book that shows you how to stress less and enjoy more.
