Spring has sprung at Give Plants

Finally things are starting to happen as the advent of September has ushered in the long awaited spring season. Every year spring is the time when everything seems possible and we are filled with new hope and the promise of things to come. Everywhere we notice the fruit trees are in blossom, the delicate kowhai is covered in golden blooms and daffodils appearing to put a smile on our faces.

Spring is the perfect time to send a living plant to a special friend, or to someone in the family who may need cheering up, and what better way to do this, than with a lovely flowering plant from Give Plants. Granted, flowers are always a meaningful gift, but unfortunately they can only be enjoyed for a short time, whereas a beautifully presented living plant gift will remind the recipient of the giver for many years to come.

Give Plants is the answer to the question of what to give a to a loved one to bring a little joy into their life. By going to the Give Plants website at http://www.giveplants.co.nz people can order gorgeous flowering plants which will then be delivered right to the door. A wonderful gift would be the Give Plants Chinese Star Jasmine, with its sweet, fragrant, starry white flowers which stand out against the dark green glossy foliage. This Jasmine is slow growing in the early stages but will flourish when established and is ideal for covering walls, fences, garages and sheds.

Give Plants also have the stunning Michelia, a beautiful, compact and hardy shrub which can tolerate most conditions and produces plenty of stunning cinnamon-coloured buds that open to creamy white magnolia-type flowers in early summer. The flowers have a slight lemony fragrance. The Yunnanensis has become popular as a hedge plant or topiary and it grows well in a container and flowers over a long period.

For a really thoughtful gift, there is no better recommendation than a living citrus plant. A fresh lemon or lime tree can be the perfect gift whether it is for a get-well gift, birthday gift or really any other unique occasion. Citrus trees are known for their refreshing and cleansing properties and recharge their surrounding area. A living gift of citrus comes with the added bonus of the fabulous scent of citrus flowers when the recipient opens the delivery box, so put a spring in someone’s step by sending them a living gift from Give Plants.
