If you’re stuck for birthday, anniversary or wedding gift ideas this month, our May gifts guide is the place to find a one of a kind gift that lasts a lifetime. It’s now Spring, so that means we start to see everything flourish again, meaning it’s the perfect time to find a gift that will put love into the hearts and gardens of the people we cherish the most.
Five May Birthday Gift Ideas
Lavender Plant Gift
Not only a beautiful eyepiece, our lovely little lavender plant is bursting with fragrant aromas. While we say it’s a plant, it is actually a mini stem tree that is all potted up in a 1.5L pot. It will be delivered gift wrapped and can be enjoyed in the garden or on the patio as soon as it’s received.
Lavender becomes the most fragrant from late spring to early summer so this is the perfect birthday gift idea at this time of year. If you know someone who loves cooking or aromatherapy, this would be your tailored gift for them as they will enjoy using sprigs of the herb throughout the year.
Wanting something just a little bit extra, we combined the mini stem lavender with a thyme and rosemary plant to create the ultimate herb garden gift that has also been extremely popular throughout the month of May.
Delivery Tip: Boxed up and delivered straight to the recipient gift wrapped. Once the box is opened fragrant aromas will be released into the air.
Blueberry Plant Gift
Surprise friends or family with our Blueberry Plant Gift! We are all familiar with this naturally sweet treat that provides long years of generosity and fresh fragrance. This plant would be perfect for any fruit lover who you could see picking their own berries for cooking, baking, or even jam-making!
The plant produces gorgeous, white bell-shaped blossoms in the spring and its pristine leaves throughout all the summer months. In autumn, this blueberry plant begins to complete its full transformation when the foliage turns to fiery shades of oranges/reds.
Ripening towards the end of July, the blueberries will be ready to pick and enjoy as they please.

This gift will bloom and grow over the years to represent the growing love, forever being a symbol of their life ahead.
Japanese Flowering Cherry Tree
May is all about blossom, representing new life and freshness. What better way to bring this into your life than with our Japanese Flowering Cherry tree. This tree is a kanzan variety and is one of the most celebrated of the ornamental cherries. It is a symbol of lasting friendship making it a wonderful gift to send to a close friend on their birthday in May.
May is the time the blossoms are blooming so the buds will start to open and reveal showy pastel pink petals straight away making them perfect for this month especially. These are closely followed by beautiful copper leaves that turn bright green in the summer.
Growing to a height of around 6m (20ft) this tree is suited to medium and large gardens. If you wanted a smaller version, we also have a Dwarf Japanese Flowering Cherry. Once planted in a sunny spot in the garden, the tree requires minimal care and will live for up to 30 years.
Delivery Tip: This tree is delivered in a 10L pot, order it straight to the recipient so they can unwrap it from the box and place it straight out in the garden to be admired.
Mini Lemon Tree Gift
The Mini Lemon Tree Gift is an evergreen delight, it will sit pride of place in any setting and will give zesty fruit and fragrant flowers up to 4 times a year. Freshness is at the heart of this gift, and when it comes to a unique gift nothing even comes close.
The Lemon Tree is an eye catching statement as the bright greens and yellows complement each other. Be prepared for guests to comment on this plant as they are caught by its bold fruit. On top of this, it also has the added benefit of being an ingredient to use in cooking with its sharp and sour flavour. Looking into different cultures, the lemon is said to symbolise the human heart, love, and light. It aids in accepting the changes in life and improves the sense of good fortune, as well as having the ability to generate honour and adoration.
Give us a call to see if we are able to deliver the tree with fruit already grown. If not, enjoy watching the tree develop its treasure.
