Love is in the air at City Jungle as we celebrate Qixi Festival, also known as Chinese Valentine’s Day.
Falling on the seventh day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar, Qixi is a beautiful traditional festival centred around the romantic legend of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl — two lovers separated by the Milky Way who are said to reunite once a year on this special night.
Traditionally, Qixi is a time to celebrate love, romance and meaningful connections. And while roses will always be a classic, we think there’s something extra special about giving a gift that can continue to grow long after the day is over.
Give a gift that keeps growing 🌿
Our Qixi Festival collection has been thoughtfully put together with plants that make beautiful gifts for someone special.
From elegant flowering plants to lush indoor favourites, plants are a wonderful alternative to traditional flowers. They can brighten a home, apartment or office and become a lasting reminder of the person who gave them.
Whether you're celebrating a partner, a new relationship, a long-time love or simply someone who means a lot to you, there’s a plant waiting to be chosen.
Explore our dedicated Qixi collection and find something beautiful to say I love you without saying a word.
And, of course… there are roses 🌹
If you're looking for the timeless romance of fresh flowers, our sister store has you covered with a beautiful selection of pink roses.
Pink roses are especially fitting for Qixi, symbolising affection, admiration, appreciation and gentle romantic love. They’re the perfect way to add a touch of traditional romance to your Qixi celebrations.
Pair a beautiful bouquet of pink roses with a lasting indoor plant from City Jungle for a gift that brings together the beauty of flowers and the longevity of greenery.
Happy Qixi Festival — may your love continue to grow. 💕
