Purple orchid bouquet
Orchids last far longer than roses, so the gesture stays on the table for a week or more.

The best teacher gifts are simple, useful and come with a heartfelt note. A plant for her desk, a journal, a mug, a candle set or flowers say thank you without being too personal or too expensive.
