What Makes a Great Potted Plant Gift?

Not all potted plants are created equal when it comes to gifting. The best plant gifts share a few key qualities, and we make sure that our selection ticks these boxes!

Check out the selection!

Beautiful presentation

A plant destined for gifting should look the part from the moment it's received. Think thoughtfully styled with a simple bow, no tacky celophane to become landfill, gorgeous ceramic pot ready to enjoy!

Ease of care

The best gift plants don't require a horticulture degree to keep alive. We love varieties that thrive with minimal attention - something the recipient can enjoy without stress.

Versatility

A great plant gift works equally well on a kitchen bench, a home office desk, or a living room shelf. There is nothing like popping a plant in to a new spot in the house and it giving all the fresh new look vibes.

Endless occasions

Potted plant gifts work beautifully for birthdays, thank you gestures, housewarmings, new jobs, retirements, and everyday moments of appreciation. They're versatile enough to suit almost any occasion.

Frequently asked questions

Can I switch and swap pots for my plant?

Listen, maybe. Often the plant might be best suited to the pot we have it selected for due to the size of the plant to suit the size of the pot. So shoot your shot and email us hello@posydaze.com.au some screen shots of your thoughts and we can see what is possible!

What if the recipient is not home when the plant is delivered?

Our team (ha ha, very likey Kate or Mel, or our Mum's) will leave the plant in a safe spot and send you a notification. If there's an issue, we'll contact you by phone first and email as a backup.

Can I order in advance for a specific day?

Yes! This is a great option to ensure you don't miss out on a delivery spot for the day, or that plant because we do keep a small selection available.

Do you deliver outside the Illawarra?

Currently we deliver across the Illawarra region including Wollongong and Shellharbour. Check the delivery zone on our website to confirm your suburb is included.

How much does shipping cost?

Nothing. The price you see is the price you pay. No extra fees added at checkout - ever.
