We were told the importance of plants and trees since our childhood. But have you ever taken the time to think about it why are we reminded over and over again the importance of them? Or why are people encouraged so much to plant a tree or told to plant a tree on their birthdays? Well we’re here to tell you all about it and the best reasons to gift plants to people!
Each year between 3.5 to 7 billion trees are cut down every year. And only 1.9 Billion(according to statistics) are planted every year. We can see there’s a huge gap right? Trees and plants are a very important factor for our survival and all the life forms depend on them. So why are we cutting them? The reason might be due to some economic purposes or in some regions people even need to stock them for their own survival. While some of them are lost due to landslides, forest fires, deforestation etc.

We need to take responsibility and make sure that the future of the upcoming generation is not in danger. So to bring some changes we need to start with ourselves and make others around us or close to us aware about it. The best way to start with this change is to share some responsibility and make everyone a part of it. and the best way to begin is to gift them a plant.
So we are going to tell you 10 best reasons to give plants as a present.
1) To raise awareness.
As said earlier we need to spread awareness amongst people and we need to start with people that we know or are close to us. Only then can they spread the word around and raise more and more awareness. Giving them a plant also shows that you think the person is responsible enough to take a good care of it and water it and nourish it properly. It teaches them to be responsible for towards something they are trusted with.
2) Important for your health.
We avoid going out in these tough times and often most people start feeling claustrophobic. So even when we step out the rising pollution makes it even worse for us to go out for even a walk. So when we have even a small plant in our room or work desk it makes the air around it fresh which makes us feel relaxed. Having a small plant on your work table can even make you feel relaxed. So when you’re gifting someone a plant you wish for them good health and peace of mind.
3) Flower bouquets are temporary, plants are forever.
Their batteries won’t run out or they won’t have any manufacturing issues. Unlike other gifts, plants won’t have any issues like these. They won’t go outdated or expire. They will stay with you forever only if you take proper care of them. Plants require proper attention and care from the recipient just like a child needs from a parent. Once you take proper care of the plant and it grows in front of you everyday you won’t be able to resist yourself but to take care of it all by yourself and you become responsible.

4)They are a suitable gift for any occasion
You can gift it at any occasion to anyone of any age. If you want you can even gift it with something else too. For example you want to gift your bestfriend a book that he really likes, give it with a plant. It would be a perfect match for it or even with anything else. Plants are the most perfect gift you can give to someone on any occasion. Just make sure that you know that the person will take the responsibility of the plant.
5) Plants are a sophisticated gift.
Indoor plants like graptoveria opalina, jade plant, orchids and many more bonsai plants give a lot of sophisticated and aesthetic vibes to your interior designs and work desk. They are great for home decor. Plants play an important role in setting the aura or mood of the work space and they give good vibes too!

6) Plants are a pocket friendly gift
Incase a gift might burn a hole in your pocket and you don’t know what might be the perfect gift just buy a small plant and gift it. And trust us after some time you’ll see how great of a gift it can be when nurtured and taken proper care.
7) It can work as a motivation for home gardening.
Imagine gifting your friend a small plant and some months later he sets up his own home garden! How amazing would that be. It’ll great for the environment, for his health and you may even notice the changes in his behaviour or how calm he may become.
8) Uniqueness
Most people may not think of a plant as a gift and you may have given a thought, then go ahead and buy it. A plant might be a unique gift for your friend, colleague or family member. Plants really are one of the most beautiful gift you can give to someone.

9) Giving something back to the environment.
The plants given by you as a gift when grown big can also be popped into the ground and then can be looked after. Which later turns into an even bigger tree. It’s a selfless investment too for the future generation.
10) A gift that won’t be forgotten
Usually a gift that you give eventually stops working or doesn’t fit or anything, but a plant is a gift that the receiver will always remember. It won’t ever stop working, all it will need is a proper care. Each time they will look at your gift they’ll remember you. Your gift just let’s the person know that you love them and hope for them for them to have a great day or even good health.

Even after these points we know that it’s important to plant trees. Even plants when they are big enough should be taken outside the house popped out of the flowerpot planted into the grounds and look after them. We know it’s important to grow more plants and trees for the future generation, global warming is on the rise. It’s our responsibility to make sure we hand over this earth to the next generation knowing that it will be safe for them. Besides what’s the harm in giving an eco-friendly gift to your close one which might just help the future?
