Plants for Easter and Spring Gifts

Easter's about renewal, fresh colour, and new starts. Chocolates vanish in days, cut flowers droop within a week, but plants for Easter actually stick around and keep growing. They remind people of your thoughtfulness long after the bank holiday's over. Whether you're sending a gift or just want to brighten your own place for spring, our collection includes things that'll last beyond next Tuesday.

We hand-pick each plant for quality and presentation—vibrant flowering bulbs, English lavender, gift-wrapped orchids, hydrangeas, and fragrant citrus trees. Everything arrives beautifully packed with personalised messages if you want them, ready to brighten homes without you lifting another finger.

Varieties You'll Find in Our Easter Collection

Our range covers indoor statement pieces and outdoor spring favourites. Every plant comes from trusted UK growers, not just wherever it's cheapest.

  • Hydrangeas – Big blooms in pink, blue, or white. Classic Easter choice.
  • Orchids – Elegant, long-lasting. Work brilliantly for modern interiors.

Why Choose Easter Plants from Carbeth Plants?

Easter plants aren't just colourful—they're about connection and giving something that'll actually last beyond the long weekend. We hand-pick every variety to ensure it's fresh, looks good, and arrives at the right time for Easter.

  • Works for anyone: Friends, family, colleagues—living gifts beat temporary ones every time. Even for people who say they're "not plant people."
  • Already wrapped: Comes beautifully presented with optional message cards. Skip the last-minute scramble for wrapping paper and ribbon.
  • Fits any space: Windowsills, tables, gardens—whatever they've got, something here will work without needing a greenhouse or expert knowledge.
  • Quality you can see: Grown for UK homes by nurseries that get our weather. You're not hoping Mediterranean plants will somehow cope with British spring.
  • Arrives ready: Eco-friendly packaging keeps everything safe during delivery. Opens up looking great, not battered.

Whether you're sorting a centrepiece for your Easter table or surprising someone, these gifts look impressive without costing a fortune.

Spring Plants for Every Style

Different plants suit different people and spaces. Match the gift to who you're buying for.

  • Indoor types – Orchids and Anthuriums add colour to kitchens or living rooms. Don't need special conditions, just reasonable light.
  • Outdoor varieties – Hydrangeas, lavenders, and mini daffodils give bursts of colour for porches and gardens. Wait till the frost risk has passed before planting them out permanently.
  • Something unusual – Citrus Lemon Tree makes a proper talking point. Smells amazing and looks different from typical Easter gifts.

How to Care for Easter Plants

Keeping Easter plants looking decent doesn't need complicated routines or special equipment. Most varieties in our collection are chosen specifically because they're forgiving and straightforward. Follow these basics and your Easter plants will thrive without demanding constant attention:

  • Indoor ones: Bright indirect light works best—direct sun can scorch leaves. Water when soil feels dry an inch down, but don't let it sit in water. Root rot's the main killer.
  • Outdoor plants: Don't rush to plant them outside. Late frost can wipe out new growth overnight. Wait till you're confident cold snaps are done.
  • Feed occasionally: Bit of houseplant compost helps with healthy growth and better blooms. Not essential, but makes a difference.

Most plants in our Easter range are deliberately easy-care. They're meant for gifting to people who might accidentally kill fussier varieties, so we've picked forgiving ones.

Delivery Made Easy

Easter plants ship UK-wide, packed carefully so they arrive ready to enjoy or gift immediately. We use eco-friendly materials that actually protect plants during transit rather than just looking good.

  • Protective packaging that works

Frequently Asked Questions

Traditional Easter plants include lilies, daffodils, tulips, and hydrangeas—all symbolising renewal and new beginnings.
Orchids, lavender, or citrus trees work brilliantly. They last for months rather than days, which means better value and more impact than cut flowers that'll be binned by Wednesday.
Most spring bulbs go in during autumn for next year's flowering. But potted bulbs available at Easter can go straight into borders or containers once you're confident frost's finished.
Daffodils, pansies, primroses, tulips all thrive in early spring. They bring instant colour and they're fairly foolproof, so beginners won't kill them immediately.
