Make it personal without making it generic
Base the care plan on the plant's actual room, container, history, and the recipient's ability to maintain it.
Presentation
Place the appointment card beneath one fallen or illustrated citrus leaf in a slim botanical folio.
Check the practical fit
- Space
- Uses the plant's existing location and may identify one alternate seasonal position within the same home.
- Skill
- A relevant horticultural professional should distinguish observation from diagnosis and explain uncertainty.
- Maintenance
- Follow the short observation plan and reassess before adding products or changing several conditions at once.
- Accessibility
- Bring the consultation to the plant, use readable care cues, and design watering and turning around the recipient's reach.
- Sustainability
- Preserve the existing plant and reuse its sound container before considering replacement or new inputs.
- Timing
- Schedule while symptoms and seasonal conditions can be observed, not immediately before travel.
