All edible plants

Edible plants make fantastic gifts for cooks, and those who love to grow their own

We've pulled together a wide range of culinary plants that are easy to grow at home, produce reliable crops, and feel a little special when given as a gift.

From blueberry bushes that thrive in pots to grapevines that grow vigorously and produce lots of fruit, there’s something for every beginner gardener. Strawberries are a favourite as they produce a quicker crop, but the pineapple plant makes for an eye-catching and memorable gift!

We’ve left our many citrus varieties off this list—you can explore the full citrus collection on our dedicated page.

Whether you’re looking for a birthday surprise, a housewarming present, or something for a friend who loves to cook with fresh herbs, you’ll find plenty of delicious inspiration to choose from at Plants4Presents.
