If you don’t know what to give Mom this year for Mother’s Day, don’t worry, we’ve got you covered! Even though it was very difficult to narrow down, we’ve put together

Garden Valley’s Top 10 Gift Ideas for Mom:

1. Million Bell Mixed Hanging Basket

These beauties are filled with vibrantly stunning colors that will leave the mother in your life absolutely SPEECHLESS! 

How to care for: Million bells like FULL SUN, so place in a sunny location. Water when hanging basket is light in weight. As a general rule: every other day during cooler days, and every day during the warmer days. To get rid of dead blooms- shake the hanging basket a few times and blooms should fall off. You can also trim the bottoms of the basket to encourage healthy new growth.  

2. Succulent 

With a variety of shapes and sizes, it might be hard to decide which one to get. They make the perfect addition to any covered, outdoor spot or any window that receives bright, indirect light. 

How to care for: They need about 6 hours of sun per day. If the succulent has never been in direct sun, gradually introduce it to full sun, or provide a sheer curtain to protect it from the harsh light. Water soil directly until water drains through the bottom of your pot. Make sure that your soil dries thoroughly before watering again. Too much water can send these plants spiraling down fast. Soil is also important for succulents, and you’re going to want to choose a Cactus mix, which we have available at all of our locations. 

3. Monstera

With show stopping, giant leaves and beautiful, big branches, these indoor plants are sure to leave her jaw dropping for DAYS. 

How to care for: Monstera needs bright to medium indirect light, and does not like intense, direct sun. Water once every week, and allow the soil to dry out between waterings. 

4. Herb Garden

Has the mom in your life been talking about how she wishes she had an herb garden? Well this would be the perfect time to pick out a large pot and grab a few herbs to fill it with. Fill with Rosemary, Parsley, Lavender, or any other herbs she might enjoy cooking with. If she needs to learn how to start her own herb garden, you can find more info here.

5. Overall Planters

Okay, how DARLING are these overall planters?! Not only will your mom love them, but they’ll make a great addition to that landscape that just needed “something interesting”. Grab her favorite flower to fill the planter, and this gift will for sure make your mom forget all the things you’ve ever done to disappoint her. 

6. Tea Roses

With a beautiful assortment of bloom colors, you will never go wrong with these stunning flowers. 

How to care for: Tea roses need plenty of sunlight, at least 6 hours per day. Water every week, sometimes more depending on your soil and if it’s in a pot or the ground. When watering, avoid getting blooms and leaves wet, as this can cause diseases. To prune old blooms, cut to the last leaf on the stem. Prune the entire plant during the dormant season, which is winter/late spring. 

7. Rieger Begonias

From creamy yellows, to vibrant pinks and reds, the blooms on Rieger Begonias are sure to leave Mom feeling happy and joyful this Mother’s Day.

How to care for: These begonias like a place with partial shade. If growing indoors, place in a spot that receives bright, indirect light. These begonias like well draining soil. Make sure that the soil dries well in-between waterings. 

8. Butterfly Bush

If you want Mom to feel super special this Mother’s Day, you’ll definitely want to consider the Butterfly Bush. And they hold true to their name, because these bushes will attract butterflies from all over your neighborhood! They bloom from Spring to Summer, but their ever-green foliage is beautiful even without the blooms.

How to care for: Butterfly bushes like full sun or part sun with well draining soil, so remember this when planting. When newly planted, make sure to water often until the roots have taken hold. After this step, water only when there are big dry spells between rain. 

9. Mixed Container

If you’re low on time and don’t know have a clue on what Mom would want, maybe take a look at our beautiful mixed containers. Absolutely no work for you, and you get to enjoy the beautiful mix of flowers and foliage all season long!
