Yucca Elephatipes & Baby Pilea Houseplant Gift Set

We love this exotic looking houseplant Gift Set- Both the Yucca and Pilea are super easy to look after and make a great gift. This set has a 50cm tall Yucca with a baby Pilea, both in elegant Sorbet Green or Deep Blue pots. 

With spiked green, sword-shaped leaves springing up from the palm-like trunk, this houseplant makes a striking statement and has a very sculptural look.  Native to Central and South America and Mexico, it’s truly a taste of the rainforest – it really looks as though it has just burst out of the undergrowth!

Both the Yucca and Pilea are easy care and happy in most places in the home that have natural light. The Pilea is a weed in China and therefore easy to grow! 

Yucca Elphatipes gets its name from its trunk – which, over time, thickens to resemble an elephant’s foot! We like this striking houseplant in a basket for a stylish magazine kind of look. 

Most people know the Yucca plant – but what really makes it outstanding is the way you style it – with a baby plant in a matching pot  What a wonderful gift this would make! We’ll add in a free, handwritten card if you tell us your gift message – just leave a note of it at the basket stage of the checkout and we’ll arrange the rest.

No giveaway paperwork either!
