A Mother's Day Gift Guide from Milmont
Beautiful, lasting ways to celebrate the moms in your life
This blog highlights thoughtful, garden-inspired Mother’s Day gifts available at Milmont Greenhouses, from hanging baskets and rose bushes to custom planters and herbs. It encourages shoppers to choose lasting plants over cut flowers and invites families to spend time together picking out blooms, celebrating both Mom and the joy of spring!

Mother’s Day is just around the corner, and here at Milmont Greenhouses, we believe there’s no better way to show love and appreciation than through the beauty of plants. Sure, a bouquet is nice, but what if you could give Mom something that keeps blooming long after the day is over?
Whether she’s an avid gardener or simply loves having a touch of nature on her porch, we’ve got plenty of beautiful options to make her feel celebrated. Here are some of our favorite ideas for thoughtful gifts this spring:
Hanging Baskets
Our hanging baskets are always a favorite for Mother’s Day. They’re overflowing with color, easy to care for, and bring instant joy to any porch or patio. Every time she sees it in bloom, she’ll be reminded of you.
Roses
If you want to stick with something classic, you can’t go wrong with a rose bush. Roses are timeless, and the best part is they come back year after year. We have so many gorgeous varieties to choose from, whether your mom loves deep reds, soft pinks, or sunny yellows.
Perennial Favorites
Looking for a gift that keeps on growing? Perennials like coneflowers, peonies, or lavender are wonderful choices. They’re a living reminder of love that keeps coming back, stronger with each season.
Custom Planters
If you want something a little more personal, we can help you put together a custom planter filled with blooms in her favorite colors. It’s a beautiful way to brighten her front steps, patio, or even a sunny spot indoors.
Herbs and Veggies
And if your mom enjoys cooking, a little kitchen herb garden or a starter set of vegetable plants could be the perfect gift. Fresh basil, thyme, or cherry tomatoes are such a treat to have on hand.
If you’re looking for a meaningful experience this Mother’s Day, why not spend the day together wandering through our greenhouses? You can pick out plants side by side, enjoy the fresh air, and make a memory while you’re at it.
This year, skip the last-minute gift or grocery store flowers. Give Mom something that grows—just like the love you share.
We’d love to help you find just the right plant. Stop by Milmont Greenhouses or give us a call to see what’s blooming now.
