How to wrap an orchid as a gift

Necessities

• Orchid
• Wrapping paper or cellophane
• Ribbon or string
• Scissors
• Tape
• Optional decorative elements such as a label

 

Wrapping an orchid

First, choose wrapping paper that suits the occasion. Cellophane is a good choice for orchids because it allows you to see the plant while still providing some protection.

 

 

Place the orchid in the center of a large piece of cellophane. Fold the edges of the cellophane up around the pot and use tape to secure it in place.

 

 

Next, use a ribbon or string to tie a bow around the top of the cellophane. You can also use two types of ribbon to add a bit of extra colour. Optionally, you can attach a small label with a personal message to the ribbon.

 

 

Ta-da! A beautifully wrapped orchid—who wouldn’t want to receive this?
