I need to buy a housewarming pressie for some friends, is a small plant a good idea or crappola?
Would you be happy with a plant, perhaps something easy to care for?
OR..... what else could I get?
The house looks like it's been decorated by someone who is severely colourblind, so they are completely redecorating, so no themes or colours I could use for ideas, like picture frames or cushions or something useful.
Shall I just go for the easy option and get a nice bottle of plonk?

A nice orchid always looks lovely. Or a bottle of bubbly.

if you are near ikea, they usually have orchids at a good price. And they last for ages and look chic etc etc.
