Monrovia Gardening: The Gift of Living Plants

Spring has certainly sprung around these parts 😉 I love all of the pretty flowers and blooming shrubs/trees this time of year and I’m always looking forward to planting at least one new perennial every year. Also, as a Mom I LOOOOVE getting LIVING PLANTS on Mother’s Day so I was super excited to hear about Monrovia plants, which are carried at a lot of nurseries and at your local Lowe’s Home Improvement stores.

Sure, I love some gorgeous cut flowers sitting around my home, but as a sentimental gift on Mother’s Day I much prefer living plants for several reasons. These Monrovia plants even came with a Mother’sDay Gift tag!

{{Why Living Plants are Better for Mother’s Day}}

1. Long Bloom Season – My most recent purchase of Monrovia plants were these two Pink Climador Clematis. They are gorgeous climbers that bloom from late Spring/early Summer all the way through the fall. I have 4 columns on my front porch that I can’t wait to see these stunners climb up. This long bloom season means your Mom will think about you every time she sees them.

2. The Gift that Keeps Giving – These Monrovia plants will last for years to come whereas cut flowers will only last Mom about a week! Each year she will be dazzled by this beautiful, living gift. The plants are grown by Monrovia, not by the retailers so you can expect health & longevity with each one.

3. Symbol of Growing Love & Appreciation – Moms work so hard to raise their children, you never want to give her more work. Living plants are typically very simple to care for and with so many to choose from, there is sure to be one to suit the awesome Mom in your life. What better symbol to show your growing love & appreciation than a living, breathing plant?!

4. Add Value & Beauty to Their Home – Living plants add beauty and value to your home for years to come. Curb appeal is very important to homeowners and I’m sure your Mom is no different. Your Mom is sure to appreciate a gift that adds so much to the exterior of her home. Flowers and plants are so welcoming, they breathe life into a home.

5. Gardening is RELAXING – Enough said, right? Show me a Mom that doesn’t need some serious relaxing and I will be very surprised. Scientific studies show that gardening is great for your health and lowers stress hormones! What a gift!

Monrovia Gardening and maintaining healthy and beautiful green spaces can be very easy, if you follow a few basic principles. And Monrovia is here to help with healthy plant growing tips. Happy Mother’s Day and I know your Mom will love her Living Plants for years to come!!
