Here in the UK, it's Mother's Day next weekend.  If you are still looking for a great gift idea, read on for 7 more unusual gifts you may not have thought of.  Whether she loves flowers, reading or cooking, we have the perfect gift - and plenty more ideas besides.


A plant for the garden is a great zero waste gift and this beautiful Special Mum Rose Bush will definitely make any garden-proud mum smile.  With its stunning pink blooms, delightful fragrance and continual summer flowering, it is the perfect expression of your eternal gratitude and love.


If she prefers cut flowers, read our guide to how to buy the best flowers and make them last longer.

If your mum prefers to grow herbs and loves cooking, how about these pretty herb pot tins decorated with daisies, buttercups and bees.  They're the perfect thing to brighten a kitchen window sill, adding cheer on even the greyest day.


Was your mum a Duranie in her day?  One of the most iconic and ground-breaking bands to come out of the UK in the past four decades, Duran Duran are still going strong and are back in London this summer to headline at Hyde Park in July and your mum could be there!


Does your mum love nothing more than a wander round an art gallery?  Then treat her to this beautiful coffee table book which details 100 of the greatest works from the National Gallery.  You could even add a promise to take a trip to an art gallery with her too.


Jewellery always makes a beautiful and well-received gift, but why not buy her something unique such as this necklace featuring your family tree?  Add the initials of your mum, dad, yourself and your siblings to create a gift she will treasure.


Or how about these customisable birthstone rings?  Add the birthstone of each child's month and their name or birth date engraved inside.  A beautiful gift she won't want to take off, and sure to generate lots of conversations amongst her mum friends!


And finally, no-one can ever have enough mugs, especially this lovely Emma Bridgewater Mother's Day mug which tells her what she really wants to hear: it's Mother's Day every day!  The perfect daughter to mother gift, this pretty mug will become her new favourite morning mug.
