Want to delight and impress the houseplant growing green thumbs on your holiday shopping list? These green gift ideas are sure to delight anyone with an indoor garden. 

Norfolk Island Pine Houseplant

Looking for the perfect hostess gift for an indoor gardener? Houseplant growers will love to get a decorated Norfolk Island Pine tree. In bright indoor lighting, this gift starts out as a mini Christmas tree that can be turned into an attractive pine tree houseplant after the festivities are over. The product is grown by Costa Farms and can be found at selected Home Depot stores across the nation. 

AeroGarden

I think of the AeroGardens as the Cuisinart Stand Mixer of the indoor garden. These machines enable you to grow fresh, tasty herbs and veggies indoors right where you need them. The built-in full-spectrum lighting system and the water reservoir below make the process easy and expedient. Best of all, you have organic herbs and veggies to use in your cooking that are packed full of nutrients. Produce is a lot like a new car. As soon as it’s picked, it begins losing nutrients. So you can pick and put this produce directly on your plate. 

Amaryllis and Paperwhites

Forcing bulbs indoors during the cold months of the year is a lot like opening a much anticipated gift on Christmas morning. You simply plant in water, gravel or soil and watch the beauty of bulbs unfold in your home. Add a dash of water now and then and your home will light up with tropical blooms. In the case of paperwhite blooms, you also enjoy a delightful fragrance. When you get your bulbs, watch this video for how to plant them. 

Air-Cleaning Houseplant Collection

Give the indoor gardener in your life the gift of four of the best indoor air-cleaning plants out there. Consisting of parlor palm, sansevieria, pothos and peace lily, this comprehensive collection is sure to scour the air of harmful toxic chemicals like formaldehyde. Not to mention that they are easy-to-grow and gorgeous! 

Indoor Gardening the Organic Way (book)

Surprise the gardener in your life with an autographed copy of Indoor Gardening the Organic Way: How to Create a Natural and Sustaining Environment for Your Houseplants. This indoor gardening classic tells the gardener in your life everything needed to grow healthy houseplants without synthetic chemical fertilizers and pesticides in order to reap the benefits of a lush, healthy indoor garden. 

Wardian Case Terrarium

These elegant terrariums originated in the Victorian era and are still adding grace and class to the indoor garden. The houseplant grower in your life will be delighted to receive one of these high-end terrariums. While you’re at it, give some terrarium plants to go with the Wardian case.
