A flower bouquet is a beautiful thing, but only for a short time! Two weeks and the flower bouquet has all gone, it is a waste when you think about. A family friend past away and I watched as she was given 30 odd bunches of flowers. After travelling to the funeral and returning home, I went online to purchase a quality plant to be delivered to our friend. I discovered that there were no real on-line solutions available to give plants as gifts in New Zealand. I am not saying that you couldn’t purchase plants on-line at all, but we really wanted to send a quality, good-sized, hardy plant in appropriate packaging that didn’t cost the earth. I wanted something that would be there for years to come and each year when it flowered it could remind those that were left behind of the happy memories. Sure there were seedlings available, but I wanted a plant. My wife Kirsty and I talked about the problem. In her pragmatic style, she said I should either do something about or stop complaining! So I decided to do something about it. So we established Give Plants with a simple aim; to provide good quality, well-packaged gift plants on-line. We hope that you love the concept as much as we do and enjoy giving plants.
