11 Best Gifts for Plant Lovers
1. The Floral Society Copper Watering Can
With copper-coated stainless steel, this durable, rust-free watering can is hand-finished. It holds about 2.5 liters of water, making it an invaluable tool for all indoor and outdoor gardening watering. The design is modern and functional with an easy-to-grip, curved handle and an extended spout. A collaboration with The Floral Society, it’s important to note that with all copper products, oxidation will occur (so be sure to store it indoors!), creating a darkened patina over time. But no worries—both versions of copper are oh so gorgeous, in our humble opinion!

2. Modern Sprout Kitchen Harvest Gift Set
The Kitchen Harvesting Set from The Sill is a standout gift for the herb-growing botanist who moonlights as a chef. It includes everything growers and chefs need to cultivate the countertop herb garden of their dreams: a passive hydroponic grow kit, organic Genovese basil seeds, rust-resistant pruning shears, a 100 percent cotton tea towel, a herb pull and pinch dish. Once those sill-side herbs—some of our favorites include basil, cilantro, parsley, rosemary, thyme and mint—are harvested and ready to go, they can be used in all kinds of culinary dishes to add an unparalleled freshness.

5. Microfiber Dusting Gloves
Here’s a gift even the most seasoned nature-lovers may not have known they needed. Microfiber Dusting Gloves from Bloomscape make dusting off and shining leaves easy work—all without the disgusting smell of Neem oil! Instead of spraying oils or using a too-big duster to clean off plants, wear the Microfiber Dusting Gloves and use your hands to wipe each leaf. Pro tip: Cleaning debris off of plants isn’t just aesthetically pleasing and clean-looking. It’s actually healthy for your plants! That’s right—removing dust allows leaves to absorb more sunlight, ultimately improving plant health and increasing growth!

6. Bloomist Brass Frogs
Made of solid brass, this bundle of brass frogs works with vases and containers of all kinds—even Mason jars! New to frogs? A fan-favorite amongst plant enthusiasts, frogs, are an alternative to non-biodegradable plant foam that works by providing stability to your plant, so it stays upright. It’s especially ideal for propagating wobbly cuttings that can’t quite stand on their own without support or for arranging bouquets. Frogs also encourage bulbs and branches to bloom quicker!
Buy at Bloomist for $28.
7. Theory Beyond Design Oak Solo Ring Stand
Speaking of propagating cuttings, fans of propagation need the Oak Solo Ring Stand in their lives! As pretty as it is practical, the Oak Solo Ring Stand from The Sill pragmatically displays cuttings while growing their roots in water. This set includes three handmade propagation vases, all 6 inches by 1 inch in diameter, designed for indoor use. These vases have natural beauty featuring oak ring stands and polished brass bars any tree-hugger will appreciate.

Snip, snip! While some plant lovers are hesitant to prune, veteran caretakers know that pruning is crucial to properly maintaining and caring for plants. Perfect for indoor and outdoor use, the Opinel Hand Pruning Shears have stainless steel blades that effortlessly slice through stems as thick as 3/4 inches. It never hurts your hand either—thank you, comfortable beech handle—and features a simple locking mechanism on the side to keep pruners closed when not in use. Even Oprah approves of these shears!

11. Organic Lava Rocks
If you’re not obsessed with Lava Rocks, are you even a plant person?! Just kidding. All jokes aside, there are lots of different ways to pot correctly, but in the absence of a pot with draining holes, lava rocks might just be your new BFF. And, it’s the perfect stocking stuffer! Simply cover the bottom of any planter with lava rocks, creating a place for excess water to pool and then drain—away from your plant’s roots! Lava rocks are also highly porous, so they slow-release extra moisture, making them a favorite amongst frequent planters.
