Best plant gift subscriptions

Plant subscriptions take the stress out of buying plants. When you buy them as a gift, they provide beautiful plants through the post on a regular basis, and you can even choose for them to come with the perfect pot too.

Why choose a plant subscription?

What better way to reach out to a loved one who lives far away and say "I'm thinking of you" than a beautiful plant subscription? There are plenty of options on the market, whether you're looking for a short term gift of a few months or something that will last the whole year.

Plant subscriptions have flourished in recent years, and there are currently many options for different types of plants and kits available. From houseplants and cool cacti to seed boxes and an entire 'garden-in-a-box', they've got your needs covered from budding beginner to horticultural pro.

Some of the providers cater for pet owners by doing pet-friendly houseplant bundles, and others will offer up a low-maintenance option if you're looking for a subscription for someone who is short on time.
