We’re excited to share that SHOP NANJALA was featured in the Business Daily—our very first media spotlight! The article, titled “There is still time to find that perfect gift, so get shopping”, highlights the growing popularity of plants as thoughtful, lasting gifts.
Plants as the Perfect Gift
Today, gifting potted plants has become one of the most genuine and versatile ways to celebrate special moments. From birthdays and anniversaries to Valentine’s Day, hospital visits, housewarmings—and even Christmas—plants make meaningful presents that keep growing long after the occasion.
For the extra touch, many florists also offer intricately decorated ceramic bowls to pair with plants, giving your gift an added layer of charm.

In Nairobi, plant lovers can find a wide range of options:
-
Cactus range – from KES 450 to KES 550
