Dish Garden for Dad

We built this for the dads who insist they don't need anything, then quietly keep every plant we've ever sent them. It's a gift that keeps him company long after flowers would have faded, and one more reason to pick something living over something cut.

What's potted inside this gift, and how to help it keep growing.

What's Inside This Dish Garden: Every planting starts with a mix of hardy green plants, potted together so it looks full from day one. We choose varieties that hold their color indoors, then round things out with a touch of blooming color, maybe pink, white, or red, so it's not all green. Our team always pots the freshest plants on hand, nothing tired or wilted goes out our door. These plants keep growing long after the occasion, a living gift instead of cut stems.

• Water when the soil feels dry to the touch and give it some indirect light, that's about all it needs.
• The exact plant varieties can shift a little by season since we grow a changing mix, but every planting arrives full and ready for a windowsill, a desk, or a front step.
• If a bloom fades on one of the flowering plants, trim it back and a new one often follows.
• It's a solid pick any time of year, and a comforting one for harder days too, a nice change of pace from cut flowers alone.
• Set a delivery date and let Dad enjoy something that keeps growing long after the day it arrived.

• Our designers may substitute stems of equal or greater value to guarantee freshness and fullness; the overall look and color palette of the design is always preserved.
