Plant Gift Trends for 2025 & Christmas 2025
What’s been popular at Plants4Presents this year?
As 2025 draws to a close and we find ourselves right in the heart of the Christmas rush, it’s the perfect time to reflect on the plant gift trends we’ve seen throughout the year, and especially over the festive season. With classic Christmas favourites and interesting shifts in shopping patterns, this year has brought some clear trends across our plant gift range at Plants4Presents.
Flowering and outdoor plants have been our biggest sellers during 2025
Return to Traditional Festive Colours
Over recent years, alternative White Poinsettias have been the most popular colour choice. In fact, back in 2024 we completely sold out of White Poinsettias by the 10th December.
However, 2025 has seen a strong revival of classic festive reds. This year, demand for Red Poinsettias surged, and by the 12th December we had sold out of all sizes of Red Poinsettias, with whites and pinks still available. A clear sign that customers are embracing a more traditional Christmas look once again.
Christmas Classics Still Reign Supreme
When it comes to Christmas gifting, some plants never go out of style. Poinsettias and Hyacinths remain some of our best sellers, and this year they’ve been more popular than ever.
Alongside these classics, we’ve seen strong demand for other seasonal stars such as Giant Amaryllis thanks to their long lasting blooms, and Cyclamen which continue to be a go to present for corporate gifts.
One notable shopping trend we’ve observed this Christmas is a shift towards one larger gift or seasonal planter being send as a single gift for the whole family. Many customers are choosing to send one generous plant or arrangement to a whole household, rather than sending smaller individual gifts.

A Shift Towards Flowering Plants
Despite the sunny summer weather we enjoyed during 2025, citrus plant gifts haven’t been as popular as in previous years. Instead, there’s been a clear move away from edible plants and a growing preference for flowering plant gifts. Whether it’s for indoors or for outdoors customers seem to be looking for colour, scent, and instant impact, and a gift with a celebratory and uplifting feel.
Some plants have continued to shine throughout 2025. Statement flowering Orchids, tropical Frangipani plants, and ready planted arrangements have all remained popular. These gifts are ideal for customers looking for something a little different and ready to enjoy from the moment they arrive.
The Biggest Trend of 2025: Outdoor & Garden Plants
Without a doubt, the standout trend of 2025 has been the increased demand for outdoor and garden plants. From outdoor planted arrangements and Herb Boxes for doorsteps, patios, and BBQ tables, to classic gardening favourites like Happy Birthday Camellias and Patio Roses, customers have been keen to give gifts that can be enjoyed outdoors and grown on long after the occasion has passed.
Could this growing interest in gardening focused gifts reflect a desire for meaningful presents which connect recipients with their outdoor spaces?
Christmas and Mother’s Day continue to be our busiest times of the year, and as we write this, we’re right in the middle of the festive rush. While we’re focused on delivering beautiful plants this Christmas, we’re already looking ahead to 2026 and keeping a close eye on emerging trends and exciting new plants.
If there’s something in particular you’d like us to stock in the future, we’d always love to hear from you. Feel free to get in touch with the Plants4Presents team via our contact us page.
