Plants – the new age of gifting

Life is fun as it comes with a bundle of joys. Joys that our families and friends bring to us. Joys that we celebrate in our festivals. Joys that small occasions bring along. And no occasion or festival is complete without gifts. You can definitely stand strong if the gift chosen by you is useful and unique. But sometimes it’s really difficult to choose what to gift. In today’s world of online shopping and discount sales, everyone has almost everything. You think of jewellery but it might be just too personal to gift and could be expensive affair too. Gifting clothes is difficult as fashion changes almost every minute and then getting perfect fitting is also a fight. Gifting perishable food is very short lived.
