1. Christmas Cactus
Arguably the best Christmas-flowering house plant, this Christmas Cactus boasts elegant trumpets of snow-white flowers and beautifully contrasting bright-pink stamens. This easy-to-grow variety offers a fantastic floral display from late November into January. And if you’re going away over the holidays, it copes well with neglect.
2. Fragrant Jasmine
Artfully trained onto a hoop, this fabulously fragrant Jasmine forms a luscious living wreath. Filling your home with an exotic perfume, watch as its delicate pink buds open into a snow-white halo of star-shaped blooms.
3. Vibrant Daffodils
Daffodils aren’t just for spring! These perfectly prepared Narcissus ‘Tete-a-Tete’ bulbs are carefully forced and delivered just as they’re ready to bloom – the buds will unfurl just days after entering the warmth of the home, guaranteeing a bright and joyful display with which to welcome the new year.
4. Rose ‘Deep Pink’ (RosAroma™)
Rose ‘Deep Pink’ is delivered in bud and ready to display in a smart zinc planter. Vibrant, fuchsia-coloured blooms quickly smother the plant, releasing the nostalgic scent of rose to delight the senses. This beautiful plant makes a wonderful gift or a joyful decoration for the holiday season.
5. Hyacinth In Lit Glass Bowl
A Christmas favourite, this trio of pristine white Hyacinths add festive sparkle to any home. Presented in an elegant glass bowl filled with twinkling fairy lights, this heavily scented display makes a striking table centrepiece or creates a welcoming glow in a window.
A gift that keeps giving, you can plant these bulbs out into the garden after flowering to enjoy for many years to come. Read our hyacinths masterclass for expert tips.
6. Hibiscus ‘Festive Flair’
For weeks of exotic colour, the scarlet blooms of Hibiscus ‘Festive Flair‘ simply can’t be beaten. Delivered in bud, the flowers unfurl into lavish tropical flowers that measure up to 15cm across and last about 6 days each. This show-stopping plant can re-bloom many times each year indoors, and may be moved out onto a sheltered patio during the warm summer months.
7. Anthurium ‘Black Love’
With deliciously dark and glossy heart-shaped foliage, Anthurium ‘Black Love’ also boasts long-lasting burgundy spathes. Not only does this gloriously gothic houseplant make a stylish centrepiece for the Christmas table, its unusual colouring provides sultry glamour, all year round.
8. Amaryllis ‘Jolie’
Fabulously festive, the rich red trumpet-shaped blooms of Amaryllis last for weeks, making a magnificent Christmas decoration or gift! Presented in jewel-coloured honeycomb sleeves, Amaryllis ‘Jolie’ arrives ready sprouted, with each plant bearing two or three striking stems. Read our article on how to grow amaryllis bulbs for tips on what to do when they finish flowering.
9. Phalaenopsis ‘Circle Blue’
If you’re looking for an unusual Christmas gift that will last far longer than a bunch of cut flowers, this Phalaenopsis ‘Circle Blue’ is a wonderful way to show someone special how much you care. The sensational sapphire-blue blooms are trained onto a hoop that sits neatly on a shelf or mantlepiece. Watch our house plant care video for tips on how to get the most from your orchids and other winter-flowering plants through the colder months.
10. Azalea Standard
With bright, long-lasting blooms and glossy dark-green leaves, this standard azalea looks like a festively decorated tree! Choose between elegant white or bright red-ruffled flowers to decorate your home over Christmas. When spring arrives, plant your hardy evergreen azalea outside where it will continue to flower year after year.
