Most people like to give perishable Christmas gifts like wines or chocolates. These gifts are usually eaten or drank and then forgotten. Giving people memorable gifts that last a lifetime will ensure that the receiver is reminded about the festive season the whole year.

Let's go over a few gifts that last a lifetime.

Plants as gifts

Plants add natural beauty, it goes with everything and even helps to clean the air. Before giving someone plants as gifts, you will need to consider a few things.

• Where the plant is going to reside, will it be outside or inside? Is there space inside, or are there animals that might use or eat the plant outside?
• Check the mature size of the plant. Make sure that the plant is not oversized for the house.
• What care the plant will need. If it is a gift for a novice, it is better to give them a plant that is easy to care for so they do not have a negative experience.
• Type of plant that is given as a gift and their meaning. We have a lot of plants that represent blessings that are nice to give as gifts.
