Moms won’t turn down a bouquet of hand-tied flowers from Bloom & Plume or a pretty potted monstera plant from Queen plant shop, but the reality is that most don’t want gifts for Mother’s Day. What they really want is to spend time with their kids (well, unless they’re within the terrible 2s-and-age 3 range. Then they’ll undoubtedly accept an all-day pass to relax at one of L.A. s Koreatown spas).
Instead, why not bring moms and plants together for a good time?
They’re an optimistic endeavor most of the time, and L.A.’s plant stores are often happy places where you can shop for plants and gifts as well as visit and enjoy time with your mother. “We get people coming in here all the time with their moms,” said Annette Gutierrez of Potted in Atwater Village. “I really love it when these young Gen Zers come in to buy their moms a plant present. They get so excited.”
