The best gifts for people who love plants
We all have that one person in our lives who never stops talking about their plants. Their home is like a jungle and they're constantly watering, misting, repotting and contemplating light levels. While you might sometimes tire of the plant chat, their plant-loving nature makes it easy to find the perfect gift.
If you know a dedicated plant parent, then we have the gifts for you. From planters and misters to propagators and hydroponic growing kits, there's something on this list to satisfy any plant lover.
Best in-home growing kit gifts for plant lovers
During testing, we found this a great "set-and-forget" option. You add water, nutrients and seed pods and let the AeroGarden do the rest. It's perfect for people who love cooking with fresh herbs, avoiding those grocery store runs to pick up basil or cilantro. It has room for six plants of up to 12 inches tall, and comes with a seed pod kit containing six pods, including basil, dill and mint
Best planter gifts for plant lovers
This smart pot has a digital face and changes its expressions based on light and water levels, so users can truly know what their plant needs. You can control it from the pot itself, using an app or in tandem with a smart-home system. It develops its own personality through interacting with the user and, frankly, it's adorable.
Sloths hang upside down and grow moss in their fur, so they're the ideal subject for a hanging planter. If the plant parent in your life loves trailing plants, such as devil's ivy or string of pearls, this makes a great home for them. But it's versatile, and can hold any small plant, trailing or not.
Best gardening accessories gifts for plant lovers
Whether your favorite plant lover has just gotten into foraging or they're more experienced, but still don't know everything, they might appreciate this book. It contains information on 200 edible wild plants in North America, including details of how to safely identify them. It's helpfully organized by season, so it's easy to check what's currently ripe and ready to pick.
Misting plants is another way to increase humidity, although temporarily. So if you're buying for a plant parent who doesn't yet have a mister, they're bound to appreciate having a new way to make their plants happy. It's easy to refill and sprays evenly.
We all know someone who has so many plants that they've started to run out of places to put them. What that person needs is a dedicated plant stand to house their babies. This one has five tiers, so it can hold five average-sized plants or even more small ones. It has a walnut finish and comes with optional wheels to make the stand easier to move around.
Best coffee mug gifts for plant lovers
Sometimes it's best to answer an unwelcome question before it's asked — and this mug does all the heavy lifting. If you're buying for someone who really does need all those plants, they'll feel seen and appreciated with this mug.
Best home décor gifts for plant lovers
Everyone's thought about what it would be like to sleep wrapped up in a giant leaf — or maybe that's just us. Either way, the plant parent you're buying for is sure to love being able to take their plant to bed with them, even if it's actually a blanket. With a fleece underside, it's as cozy as it is cool.

We tested out these solar lights and found them perfect for lining an unlit garden path. They just need to be staked in the ground and the sun does the rest of the hard work. So they're ideal for anyone who wants to spruce up their garden without going to the hassle or expense of wiring in outdoor lights.
This olive tree is great for anyone with room for another plant in their life. We love that you can choose from three tree sizes and six planters in varying colors, so you can tailor it to the recipient. Olive trees are easy to care for, requiring not much more than weekly watering. And their branches look great in bouquets.
Is the plant parent you're buying for easily distracted by plants? Maybe you're used to them stopping midway through a sentence to look at a cool shrub you just walked past. Well, now you can let the world know their shortcomings with this cute T-shirt.
Emblazoned with funny sayings, these stemless wine glasses are great for plant lovers who also love a drink — and a pun. They hold 15 ounces and also work well for mixed drinks, beer and soft drinks, so they don't have to be for wine drinkers. They're even dishwasher-safe, because nobody wants the gift of having to do dishes by hand.
