When it comes to Mother’s Day gifts, a bunch of flowers is a classic choice. Often, we’re limited to selecting one of several store bouquets, which can make it difficult to find an individual option with a personal touch. Every mother figure is different, so when a florist sells a diverse range of gifts to reflect the many different forms of motherhood we see around us daily, we’re interested.
That’s why we’re drawn to Bloom & Wild. The popular flower delivery brand has a large selection of slightly more unusual Mother’s Day gifts, from bouquets with uncommon varieties to dried flowers and potted plants.
Whether you’re thinking of your mum, step-mum or grandmother, or the auntie, sister or friend who’s always there - or even someone who’s recently lost their mum - you’re spoilt for choice. Here are some of the more quirky gifts available this Mother’s Day.

10 unique Mother’s Day gifts to treat the women in your life
For the one who’s no ordinary mother…
We’re willing to bet you’ve never given a pineapple as a Mother’s Day gift before… It’s fair to say this potted plant would make a truly unique present. It comes with handy care instructions and could grow up to 90cm in height, so it’s sure to be a conversation starter.
For the one who loves to craft…
This original gift combines a flower delivery with a craft session, as Bloom & Wild has partnered with Sculpd to provide a make-your-own pottery kit. Inside, you’ll find clay, sculpting tools and access to tutorials on making three vases and arranging the dried blooms.
Either send the set as a fun gift or spend some quality time getting creative together.

For the one who brings sunshine into your life…
Does any plant lift your mood quicker than a sunflower? It’s unusual to see so many in a mixed Mother’s Day bouquet, which is why this one really draws the eye. With its cheerful orange and pink colouring, this arrangement is the perfect option for the person you can always rely on to raise your spirits.
For the one who always smells divine…
Jasmine is known for its sweet fragrance and dainty white flowers, so it’s an elegant yet unusual Mother’s Day gift to give to your mum, or a special nan or friend. On a windowsill or tabletop, it’ll fill the room with its strong aroma.
For the one who’s also your best friend…
According to the symbolism of flowers, yellow roses suggest pride and platonic love, so they’re the perfect choice for your closest friends - including the mums you can tell anything.
Believe it or not, this one arrives with a pop-up pot, and it’s delivered straight through the letterbox for minimum hassle. Plus, it’ll keep producing flowers for weeks after the big day.
Buy The Yellow Friendship Rose
For the free spirit…
Sometimes, the simplest gifts are the best, like this relaxed seasonal tulip bouquet, which creates a casual look while bringing pops of pink, orange and yellow. It’s a wonderful alternative to a more formal arrangement. Plus, all the tulips are grown right here in the UK and arrive with their bulbs still on, so they should stay fresh for a long time.

For the one with timeless taste…
Here’s an arrangement you can treasure for years. With its dried delphiniums, fluffy grasses and palm spears, The Mimi is an unusual Mother’s Day gift, yet it brings all the charm and elegance of a traditional bouquet.
The Mimi isn’t the only dried flower arrangement available at Bloom & Wild - for a slightly more colourful option, try The Aiko, which comes with sunflowers, lavender and gypsophila.
For the one with green fingers…
A cheerful spring flower, hyacinths bloom into life around Mother’s Day, so why not make the most of the fortunate timing by sending this sweet planter as a gift? The colourful flowers arrive in bud, surrounded by moss in their very own zinc trough.
With the right care, they could bloom year after year - just transfer the bulbs to the garden after they flower indoors. For more gifts you can enjoy into the future, try Bloom & Wild’s Mini Muscari or the Daffodil box.
For the one who always brightens your day…
With its pink-toned hyacinths, tulips and freesias, this small bouquet would make a sweet gift for a mother. As added bonuses, Bloom & Wild uses British-grown tulips and packs everything in letterbox-friendly packaging for quick and easy delivery.
For the one who deserves more than one treat…
When one plant delivery isn’t enough…why not choose three? This mini subscription service sends a different potted plant every 28 days for three months - perfect for mums with green fingers. The first package arrives with eight Charbonnel et Walker champagne truffles as an extra treat.
