What do rich elderly people want for Christmas?

[Brinn]

They don't drink, they don't want things, hate fancy food, can't go out anywhere. Also, they have all the best house items, and we couldn't afford the kind of stuff they're used to. Even if there was anything they wanted. What can I get them? Please help!

Something from the Petersham nursery shop?

I have an elderly relative who loves proper soft cotton ladies hankies!

I've just ordered a big bunch of flowers for my in laws, both in their 80s and definitely not interested in stuff.

Ohh, a box from F&M turned up for us this year from DNiece

I'm flattered she sees us in that demographic.

A rose bush, if they like gardening. Subscription flower deliveries.
Family photographs are always a winner.
Something functional but beautiful, like a great quality umbrella with a nice design or a well designed water bottle?
Luxury candles

Thanks everyone. I ended up getting flowering plants in a pot and handed it over yesterday. It was perfect. First time they have accepted a present without scowling and saying we shouldn't have bothered!!

Books, plants (house plants, outside plants), specific food, specific drink (i.e. stuff that they regularly consume and like all year round).
(and strangely Amazon vouchers).

I always frame a collage of pictures of the dc for my old grandad. He’s nearly 90 and loves it. That, a book and a plant for his garden as reading and gardening are his hobbies.
He doesn’t need anything financially but these are things that will make him smile and keep him busy.

They might appreciate something from here www.historic-uk.com/Blog/Historic-Christmas-Gifts/#20 it's not everywhere that sells knitted knights helmets
