Why are succulents good gifts for him and her? Succulents are like flowers, but are not as colorful. However, it makes for a nice and simple decorative gift for the home or office. Most succulents are not like plants and do not need a lot of watering and sun, but they do need some minimal maintenance. There are a variety of texture, color, shapes, and sizes. If the Birthday One can take care of it well, it will last for many years too. There are also many positive symbolism associated with succulents. It is a good birthday gift for him, her, and elderly for the above reasons.

Where can you get succulents? There are succulents usually at the same places that sell flowers. I usually see succulents at the floral department of grocery stores. Amazon also sells succulents online. You can probably find them at the gardening sections at Walmart, Home Depot, Lowe’s. The ones on this blog post have been seen at a garden nursery. Florists should have some, but it is better to call and check before going.

If you are on the budget, try to see if there are any seasonal sales or coupons available. Generally, most succulents are under $10. If you have some patience and time, you can buy the seeds and try to grow the succulents yourself. That would be a meaningful and memorable gift.

**NOTE OF CAUTION: Be cautionary about any allergies or health issues that the Birthday One may have.
