Drop a Hint
Houseplants stores, clearer wishlists
The Shopify wishlist-gifting app for houseplants merchants — let shoppers share what they want, then convert the people who buy for them.
Why it fits
Built for flowers gift intent
When someone wants houseplants as a gift, they rarely say it out loud. Drop a Hint makes the ask elegant: pick a product, share a hint, and let gifters land on a ready-to-buy page. Pair that with blooms and plants that are already gift-native and you get a storefront that sells through relationships, not just ads.

FAQ
Houseplants + Drop a Hint
Why add a wishlist-style app to a houseplants Shopify store?
Traditional wishlists stay private. Drop a Hint turns intent into an outbound ask — which matters for houseplants because gifters need the exact SKU, shade, size, or variant.
Does Drop a Hint work with my existing flowers theme?
Drop a Hint is built for Shopify storefronts and is designed to sit alongside your current theme. Most merchants start from the App Store listing and place the widget on product templates.
Will this increase returns for houseplants?
Usually the opposite: when gifters buy the exact hinted product, size and style mismatches drop. That is a practical win for flowers merchants with variant-heavy catalogs.
How do I measure success?
Track shares and the orders that follow from hint traffic. Over a season you will see which houseplants products attract the most gift intent — useful for merchandising and paid campaigns.
