To help you choose the perfect gift we've highlighted some of our favourite plants by theme below
Best Christmas Plants for Cooks
Citrus trees make a great choice at Christmas as it's their natural fruiting season so they can arrive with ripe and ripening fruit already set. Fragrant cardamom leaves are great fun to cook with and they make an attractive evergreen houseplant or for something a little more festive, these decorated baytrees will look great during the festive season and their savoury leaves will add depth to stews and casseroles throughout the year.
