if your loved ones
enjoy spending time in the garden or around plants, then treating them to a
gardening-themed gift can be a perfect idea. They may be professionals with
large yards and lots of veggies or just starting out with a small herb garden
on the kitchen counter. Whatever level they are at, there is plenty of
practical and ornamental gardening and outdoor gifts to choose from, and here
are a couple of ideas to help make birthday or Christmas shopping that little
bit easier!
Planting planner
Not all plants and
bulbs can be planted whenever you feel like it, and areas are often split into
different types of zones. Seasonal planting will help ensure that something is
always blooming in the yard and that the soil and other plants get a rest
period if they need them. A planting planner can help to identify the times of year that
are best for different plants and vegetables, letting you organize your
gardening schedule and reminding you when something needs to be planted. These
are great gift ideas as they are customizable and can be made to fit the
climate, time of year, and types of bulbs and seeds that are going to be
planted.
Snow blower
If your loved one
lives in a particularly cold area that receives a lot of snowfall, they may
appreciate a Troy-Bilt snowblower to help them clear it from their
driveway or yard. They are much easier to use than a shovel and require a lot
less energy. Furthermore, they come in three different categories depending on
the surface that is being cleared and the amount of snow you need to move. They
also come in different sizes, which is useful for those who don’t have as much
yard or storage space but would still benefit from using one.
Gardening hamper
A great way to
truly personalize a gift is to create a box or hamper in which the various
gifts can be collected and placed. Once you have selected the hamper, you can
begin filling it with different items to suit the needs of the person who is
receiving it and your budget, and the number of items you want to give. Popular
gardening items include gloves, trowels, books, seeds, and twine, as these are
all small and useful accessories.
Kneeling pad
These are a great idea for people who spend a lot of time out in the
garden, as a kneeling pad can really
help protect and support the knees, stop your clothes from getting dirty, and
reduce the need to bend over repeatedly. As well as being used for gardening,
they can be used for a variety of tasks that require kneeling, for example,
washing pets outside. Kneeling pads come in many different styles, sizes, and
patterns, and you may even be able to find a personalized option to make the gift
truly unique and more special for the person that is going to receive it.
