Wintertime does not have to mean doing without beautiful plants and flowers for several months. There are many varieties of lush green plants that thrive in the cold and bring gorgeous color and freshness to any room in your home. The floral designers at Blossom Flower Shops have chosen some of our favorites to share with you here.

Christmas Cactus

These festive plants bloom vibrant-colored flowers during the winter. They feature easy care and easy propagation. As a succulent, a Christmas Cactus like ours can be propagated from its foliage. It can adapt to low light, but blooms best when exposed, intermittently to brighter light.

Poinsettia

The Poinsettia plant is an obvious choice, but our favorites are the less common colors. The pink and the two-toned varieties are beautiful. Our Poinsettia Planter Box delivers tons of bright wishes for a cheerful winter. These holiday favorites are actually a tropical plant, so they do well indoors in the winter in moderate temperatures. Keep plant soil moist but not flooded and your poinsettia will thrive throughout the winter months.

Amaryllis

The big, showy blooms and long, graceful leaves of the amaryllis can cheer any room in the winter months. With occasional watering when needed and repotting with plant food as cooler weather sets in, your amaryllis will thrive year-round, blooming over and over. Our Amaryllis Plant arrives in a tasteful urn, making it a perfect winter gift. Keep indoors near a sunny window to enjoy colorful blooms all season.

Succulents

The beauty of succulents can add rich texture and bright green life to any room throughout the winter. Succulents can also be a great wintertime gift, with easy maintenance and simple care. Versatile and exotic, succulents can create living art you’ll love to have.

Evergreens

Evergreen plants bring a fresh, woodsy look to your home. Keep a potted cypress indoors to brighten your home, or plant a lush fir or pine tree outside to enjoy all year round. As they grow, they’ll provide shade and noise reduction, plus a bit of privacy as well.

Choose winter greenery to bring life and vivacious color into your home or office during the winter months. With so many varieties to choose from, it’s easy to find the perfect winter plant or flower for you. Send gorgeous winter blooms to someone special to cheer their spirit and warm their heart this winter. To learn about more great winter plants, talk to the experts at Blossom Flower Shops.
