Bosses Day sprang up thanks to the efforts of an employee who, in 1958, decided she wanted an occasion to honor her boss, who also happened to be her father. Since then, Bosses Day has slowly but surely found its way into the mainstream, and now it presents us with a unique opportunity to celebrate the ones who lead, inspire and mentor us. Along with a great office party, we here at Billy Heroman’s Flowers & Gifts suggest you gather the team and get your fearless leader a plant gift.

A trendy Sansevieria–also called “snake plant”–will brighten up their day and add something dynamic to their workplace decor. Plants make wonderful gifts, and this one is no exception. It requires very little effort to maintain and will thrive even in spaces with low light. It brings a lot of personality into a room as well, with its unique patterned leaves that seem to ripple upwards.

Make your bosses day by showing them that you appreciate their efforts to lead, inspire and support. This is a wonderful moment to connect with a mentor you may not often get to spend time socializing with, so make the most of the opportunity.
