Father's Day Plant Gifts and Gift Ideas
Belated Father's Day gifts
Make his day with a fabulous, fruity or flowery plant.
Sorry you've now missed the boat for delivery before Father's Day. We can still send belated gifts though and we always have lots of gorgeous plants to choose from.
If you’re the sort of person that gives your dad some socks each year for Father’s Day, then it's time to mix it up. Giving a plant as a gift is a great way to give your dad something interesting, something that can keep growing and bringing pleasure for weeks and months after the big day.
Particularly for Dad’s that work from home, a plant can be a great gift for his office or workshop. If you’re looking for unusual Father's Day gifts then we think plants are the perfect answer.
Are plants becoming more popular for Father’s Day?
Despite plants being more commonly associated with Mother’s Day gift giving, we’ve seen Father’s Day plants become so much more popular in recent years. With lockdowns having made our homes and gardens all the more important, and a growing trend for planting both decoratively and for self-sufficiency, more and more dads have become green fingered, making plants the ideal gift.
What are the benefits of giving plants for Father’s Day instead of flowers?
The perfect gift has a lasting impact and remains memorable, which, as beautiful as they can be, cut flowers just can’t achieve. A plant gift is one that can be enjoyed for months and even years to come, with the added satisfaction of something that can thrive under your dad’s care.
There are also many different types of plants that you can give for Father’s Day depending on the kind of person your Dad is; fiery chilli plants and zesty lemon trees, fruiting strawberries and herb planters are all ideal for Dads who are handy in the kitchen or on the BBQ, whereas the flower-growing Dads out there may favour roses, lavender and hydrangeas.
