I considered sending her flowers... they die to quickly and I also considered sending her an edible arrangement. Her husband is a pastry chef and she loves to cook. I thought a house plant would be nice, something she could maintain for a while. I'd love if you had any suggestions on a nice, inexpensive house plant I could order.
One of my associates just underwent minor surgery, what type of house plant should I send her? She's 85.?
Cyclamens, I find are always welcome and you can get some lovely colours.
Reply:Since she is healing, she is probably not going to want to deal with a high maintenance plant. Choosing a plant that is easy to care for would be a good start. Steering away from poky cacti and jagged/pointy plants and opting for "friendly" looking rounded plants might send more of a "get well" message as well.
Try a Jade plant, or maybe something less traditional like a table-top water garden- a small fish bowl with some aquatic plants, if that seems like something she'd enjoy.
Reply:African Violet in full bloom. Get a pretty brass or stoneware container to go with it.
