Turn up the heat in your garden even when the sun is hibernating for the winter with these Christmas gifts for tropical trend lovers.
Often seen with a cocktail in hand on a cosy outdoor sofa, those looking for tropical garden ideas will be a sucker for a bright cushion and adore the oversized leaves to evoke that holiday vibe.
We've enjoyed staycationing more than ever this year, and when we've made it on holiday bringing back inspiration for our homes means evoking images of lounging by the shore, beach hotel verandas, surrounded by bamboo furniture, palm plants, colourful accessories and more.
Modern Gardens has picked out the best gift ideas for the tropical trend lover this festive season and we've also included some gifts for under £15 for those on a budget.
