1. Blooming Kalanchoe

First of all your mom will love this succulent because it's bright, lovable and colorful just like her! Second of all, It's an easy-to-grow long blooming succulent. Kalanchoes are a mainstay of just about any low care space that wants a splash of color! They love bright, natural light without much direct sun. Since it's actually a succulent, their fat, fleshy leaves don't want to be watered all the time. Instead they prefer less frequent waterings (and a little more when they're flowering). We think this is one of the best plants for Mother's Day, hands down!

2. Double Flowering Premium Dancing Queen Amaryllis Bulbs

Amaryllis Dancing Queen is absolutely captivating just like our mothers! Her gigantic, over-the-top, bright white, fully double flowers are candy-striped with vivid Salmon streaks. The ruffled blooms will prance and dance their way into your moms list of favorite bulbs. She's a true queen of the Amaryllis, with every bulb producing multiple enormous flowers per stem.

The Amaryllis (Hippeastrum) is a bulbous plant where the funnel-shaped flowers bloom in a cluster at the top of the stem. They can be grown outdoors in the garden in warmer climates or indoor plants near the bright, indirect sun. Their drop-dead gorgeous colorful blooms cause quite a stir wherever they are on display. Your mom deserves some color in her life so this is perfect for her!

3. Ponytail Palm
