Top 10 Gifts for Gardeners

These tiny trees, in Olive, Orange and Wine Grape, make really special gifts. There's something magical about Bonsai trees and these are meant to actually fruit. Granted, you won't be feeding the family, but any gardener would welcome the chance to grow olives and oranges in a patio pot. The trees are about 2' tall, when shipped. They will get larger, but they can be kept small and portable, if grown in pots.

This feeder is decorative enough on its own, but add some birdseed to the flower head and it attracts beautiful song birds to your garden, year round. The flower is about 7" around and 24" tall. Feeders are sol d individually.

Believe it or not, a lot of gardeners find weeding very therapeutic. It clears the mind. And the right tools make it that much more enjoyable. I've been using the same pair of Womanswork gloves for years. This gift set that includes their wonderful Nitrile Weeding Gloves and a Radius Garden Weeder. Nitrile is a non-latex rubber that is rugged, yet flexible enough to pinch weeds. The gloves come in a variety of colors and are machine washable.

The weeder is ergonomically designed to reduce wear and tear on your wrists while you finagle weeds out of the ground. It has a lightweight titanium alloy blade with a handy serrated cutting edge.

If your gardener's always wanted to try hydroponics or is just interested in growing more things indoors, this is a small but versitile gardening system that sets up easily and comes with almost everything they'll need: the hydroponic tray and pump system, nutrient solution, seed starter cubes, growing medium. They just have to bring the seeds.

It's an old Southern tradition and a great way to save memories in the garden - not to mention colorful. You provide the bottles. The branched stands 63 inches tall with 4 7 inch ground stakes, to hold it in place. It can hold 16 bottles and the branches are bendable, for a personalized look.

Made of weather resistant cedar, this is a well thought out, very practical potting table with a 48" x 25" x 36" work surface that includes a covered soil bin and a draw for storing small items. The lower self is large enough for bags of soil and fertilizer and the small upper shelf if perfect for pots.

A top shelf holds pots and tools. I have a similar model and it’s just so nice to have a designated area for making the mess that potting entails. You do have to assemble it, but the holes are pre-drilled and the screws are included. Dimensions: 48" L x 25" W x 55" H

Having a greenhouse is most gardeners' dream. It's also a huge investment of money and time, so make sure your gardener wants one before you surprise them with one. I like this Snap and Grow model because, at 8 ft. x 8 ft., it's gives you a good amount of growing room (64 sq. ft.), but it won't cost and arm and a leg to heat.

The frame is a sturdy, low maintenance aluminum that snaps together. The polycarbonate walls are clear, 100% UV protected and unbreakable. It comes with a roof vent, which like the window and door, comes preassembled. It's also expandable. Palram Snap & Grow Greenhouse Model 701647 701647.
