Here’s something you might not have known before: Each year, 1-800-Flowers, a leader in fresh flower delivery services, announces a Flower of the Year and Plant of the Year. Today’s reveal for 2026 follows closely on the heals of Pantone’s controversial Color of the Year pick — the airy, nebulous, and all-white Cloud Dancer. Now, horticulturalists and amateur green thumbs, much like their color-obsessed counterparts, can also ring in the new year by embracing the latest cultural “It” thing, all while blessing their abodes with instant color and positive energy.

The flora that will reign supreme next year, according to 1-800-Flowers? The delphinium and the money tree. While the former is a vividly blue (or lavender) flower that shoots up to the sky in vertical fashion, so eager it is to meet the sun’s warmth, the latter is a well-known symbol of wealth and good luck according to ancient feng shui traditions. The two couldn’t be more different, but the decision to spotlight them in the year ahead — individually or as part of floral arrangements, designed and hand-delivered by local florists — came naturally for 1-800-Flowers.

“The delphinium lifts your eye upward; the money tree keeps you grounded,” Mallory Green, floral design lead at 1-800-Flowers.com, said in a press release. “One represents aspiration and hope, the other stability and tangible growth. Together, they capture the duality we’re seeing in consumers — wanting to reach higher while staying rooted in what’s real.”

Delphiniums, clearly, are architectural beauts capable of providing bouquets with much-needed structure, not to mention a focal point. They’re also nothing if not culturally relevant, having appeared in “You’ve Got Mail” and being one of King Charles’ favorites (the royal is a patron of The Delphinium Society and includes the flowers in many of his residences’ gardens).

Wish to treat your mom, wife, or any other woman in your life to their “softness and stature,” per 1-800-Flowers‘ description? Look no further than marquee offerings from the brand like the spring-evoking Delphinium Meadow arrangement, which intersperses the Flower of the Year with roses and pink Peruvian lilies — breathing freshness into any home. Want her to have a keepsake vase left over after the blooms inevitably wilt (cut flowers from 1-800-Flowers typically last from 7-12 days)? There’s the Honey Bee Buzz Delphinium bouquet ripe for the picking, whose blue-hued, delphinium-powered pops of color do their best work next to darling white button poms, graceful roses, and assorted greenery. That embossed vessel out of white ceramic, artfully topped by a raffia bow, is truly deserving of the blossoms it houses.

So too is the Cerulean Dreams bouquet worth getting for yourself or that special someone who deserves to experience joy this season (don’t we all?). We love the interplay of snapdragons and delphiniums here, which actually bear a resemblance to each other. Like all other bestsellers from 1-800-Flowers, this piece features a personalized greeting card option: ideal for relaying holiday wishes (be it for Hanukkah or Christmas), saying “happy birthday” from miles away, or expressing your sympathy.

Can’t stop gazing at money trees’ signature, braided trunk and lush, glossy leaf coverage? Introducing one to your household just might be the best thing you do to prepare for 2026’s arrival. It doesn’t hurt that biophilic design — bringing nature or allusions to nature into built environments — is very much trending right now, so you’re bound to receive many a complement on your new addition. Those who know, know.

1-800-Flowers makes shopping for money trees easy (almost as easy as caring for this low-effort plant is, which only requires watering when its top inches of soil dry out), what with its three choices of size online. If you’re looking for a full-on floor plant that will anchor your bedroom’s design while typifying balance with its five-part leaves, go with the money tree’s largest available size on 1800flowers.com: which comes in a woven seagrass planter, scoring extra style points. Need a holiday gift for your kid’s teacher, which they’ll be able to grow for years on end (always remembering their favorite student as a result)? The company’s smallest money tree, which measures approximately 10 to 14 inches in height, depending on local availability, couldn’t be a more apt fit.
