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 ‘Aqua Salmon in Sierglass
With deliciously glossy heart-shaped foliage, this Anthurium Aqua Salmon in Sierglass also boasts long-lasting pink spathes. Not only does this eye-catching hydroponic display make a fascinating focal point for the Christmas table, its festive colouring provides welcome glamour, all year round.
8. Amaryllis Touch Of Wax ‘Porcelain Snowman’
Fabulously festive, the rich red trumpet-shaped blooms of Amaryllis last for weeks, making a magnificent Christmas decoration or gift! Presented in a decorative wax ball, Amaryllis ‘Porcelain Snowman’ arrives ready sprouted and requires very little in the way of care and attention to thrive. You don’t even have to water it!

9. Dendrobium ‘Apollon’
If you’re looking for an unusual Christmas gift that will last far longer than a bunch of cut flowers, then Dendrobium ‘Apollon’ is a wonderful way to show someone special how much you care. One of the rarest and most elegant of orchids, the sensational white blooms last for months on end and produce a lovely, delicate scent. 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.

With bright, long-lasting double blooms and glossy dark-green leaves, this Azalea ‘Pyramid Tree’ has been artfully shaped for the season!
