Gardening Gifts For All Occasions
By Nicky Pilkington, Tue Jan 10th
There is nothing nicer than receiving a gift relating to one'spassion. If your loved one's passion is gardening, then showyour thoughtfulness by giving a gift that will be trulyappreciated. There are so many great gardening that the only constraintis your own budget. If your budget is small, go for things like gloves, kneepads oreven a shady hat. A pretty pot (or a watering-can) filled with asmall bag of potting mix, a packet of bulbs, some gloves and asmall trowel or other tool will be received with delight by mostgardeners. There are many hand tools at hardware stores that arereasonably priced.
If you feel that is too ordinary, how about a subscription to agardening magazine? A tiny bit more expensive perhaps, but itwill give twelve full months of delight. A book on gardening isanother idea, but make sure your recipient does not already havethe one you choose. Books are often heavily discounted atChristmas time, so you may get a bargain. On the other hand, a pot that contains a flowering plant isusually a welcomed gift. Be sure to choose a plant that issuited to your
climate. Sometimes plants are sent from tropicalto temperate zones and kept in artificial conditions in thestore. These plants will not do well once taken from theirenvironment. Shrub roses are hardy and attractive and grow inmany climates. Tulips do best in the cooler climate. If your budget is strong, a more expensive tool may beappropriate. A pull-trolley is easier to use than a wheelbarrowand, like some electric tools, is still not terribly expensive.Small electric tools such as whipper-snippers can retail for aslittle as $20.00. Or if your friend has a hose but not a hosereel, then that would be a more useful gift that he would trulyappreciate. Automatic lawn mowers, electric cultivators, hedge trimmers andbrush cutters are in the more expensive price range and you arethe only one who can decide whether that is an appropriate gift.However, when the recipient realizes you have given a gift thatcomplements his passion, expensive or not, it will certainlybecome the best gift your friend has ever received.
