Houseplant Presents for Teachers

I have 4 children and I want to give little houseplants as gifts to their teachers this holiday season. Could you recommend some inexpensive, easy care plants I could use?

Hi Molly,

You can add a small red bow and a Christmas pick to any easy care houseplant and it makes a great present for a teacher.

Apple, berry Christmas pick

Christmas Pick

The houseplants I’d recommend using would be 4″ pothos, ivy, and nepthytis (arrowhead plant). Drop the plant directly into a pretty  4″ container (that has drip holes in the bottom). Add a bow, pick, and a little moss. Instant beautiful but inexpensive presents.
