Gardening Gifts
Something For the Beginner to the Advanced Gardener

Gardening has become one of the most popular hobbies in the United States. Gardening is great for your health, great for the environment, and improves the appearance of your home. It gives you the opportunity to enjoy growing plants and flowers, as well as growing your own fruits and vegetables. Gardening gifts make the greatest presents for friends and loved ones, from the beginning to the advanced gardener. You can purchase a variety of prepackaged gardening gifts or create your own individualized garden theme gifts.

The beginning gardener is sure to appreciate a gift that includes a garden fork, garden trowel, garden cultivator, and a weeding tool. In addition to these handy tools, you might also include an apron with an ajustable belt to keep their tools in easy reach. For that special someone who has been gardening for years you might give them a little more unique, such as a compost tumbler, a compost tea maker, or a handy little electronic soil tester. You might also include a compost pail that is designed to collect kitchen waste to add to your compost pile. These are excellent gifts for the environmentally conscious gardener as well. Another great idea for any gardener would be a galvanized bucket filled with bulbs, once planted they will remember you in the spring as the bulbs emerge and blossom.



If your favorite gardener is elderly or suffers from arthritis, you might give them a folding garden kneeler that will help ease pain in the neck, back, and knees that are associated with gardening. You can also find tools that are ergonomically designed to hold the wrist in a comfortable position, and the longer handle design helps make digging easier. Just remember that no gardener, beginning or advanced, should be without a high quality pair of gardening gloves. This might possibly be the best gift a gardener could receive.



Lets not forget about the indoor gardener on your list. You can purchase an indoor gardening kit, or put together one yourself, that includes a plant mister, pruner, trowel, and cultivator. This is a great gift, especially if you include a tote with pockets to keep the tools handy. The indoor gardener might also appreciate a gardening apron as well. Another great idea is an arrangement of plants with a garden statue that can be used either inside or outside.

If you are looking for something fun to give, why not give a beautiful birdfeeder, or a classic rooster weather vane, or for a little extra luck a whimsical garden gnome. These gifts make great conversation pieces and can also serve as a functional garden sculptures.
