19 Best Gifts for Plant Lovers and Gardeners (2026)
It not only adds a sleek, contemporary vibe to just about any home decor style, but it also isn’t as bright as a traditional grow light, so it’s not disruptive to keep in your living space. You can set an on-and-off schedule and adjust the brightness in Modern Sprout’s app, or just turn it on and off manually with a switch on the 9-foot cord. The light can accommodate fruiting, flowering, or vegetative plants, such as herbs; I use it to display succulents (and a random N’Joy pothos cutting).

Just get them a plant, right?Wrong. (Well, most of the time.) I review indoor hydroponic gardens for WIRED and have been a proud plant parent for almost 30 years, so I can say that even if you have a running mental catalog of all your recipients’ plants and know which ones they don’t yet have, you may not know what they have space for, or what they’re looking to switch up to this…
