Have a gardener on your gift list? Here are several fantastic stocking stuffers and inexpensive gifts that every gardener will love.
I recently learned that my family is completely confused by my Christmas list. While they’re asking for the latest movies and fashionable sweaters, I’m requesting seed starting mats and durable gardening gloves.
If you have a gardener on your gift list, don’t fret! There are lots of gifts out there that they will love. Note that this list does NOT include the flimsy and cheap floral-pattern hand tool sets that seem to pop up this time of year. Yuck!
These gifts would also be great if you’re going to a White Elephant party that will have gardeners in attendance. They will love stealing these presents from each other and you will be the hero for bringing them!
Need more than a stocking stuffer or inexpensive gift? Here’s a list of 10 Perfect Gifts for Gardeners. Onward!
Your favorite gardener will know exactly what vegetables to plant when, no matter where they live! This PDF booklet contains all eight planting schedules for US Zones 3-10. Easy-to-read layout makes it easy to see at a glance what can be planted each month of the year. Every garden needs pollinators! What better way to attract them than with beautiful, colorful flowers? I like these because they're a "scatter garden mix"--which means you don't have to precisely plant. I rake up the soil, sprinkle seeds around willy-nilly, and soon am rewarded with beautiful flowers. While this sprayer is the perfect size for a stocking stuffer, it's much tougher and more durable than the spray nozzles at the big box stores. It's made of heavy-duty metal, comes with a lifetime guarantee, and has a fully adjustable spray pattern. Fantastic! This is the coolest thing! It attaches to your shovel or rake handle to give you extra leverage. You can stand up straighter and use less effort when shoveling, raking, or sweeping. This is a thoughtful gift for any gardener who wants to take their garden to the next level. It's also super-helpful for houseplants--no more overwatering or underwatering. Nope, it's not a gardening romance novel. Certain vegetables grow well together, and others should be kept apart. Carrots Love Tomatoes is the best resource for vegetable garden companion planting. Go for broke and get Roses Love Garlic too. These snips are sturdy and oh-so-comfortable to use. They're great for harvesting herbs, cutting flowers, or trimming suckers off your tomatoes. Who else has planted seeds and then forgotten which ones were the zucchini and which ones were the pumpkins? *raises hand* These durable, metal plant markers are reusable and give your garden a professional touch. Mason or Carpenter bees are great pollinators, and this beautiful little bee house will help attract them to the garden. Nothing makes a gardener happier than seeing bees and butterflies zooming around, sipping nectar and pollinating their flowers and vegetables. Tough and durable, these gardening gloves are essential for all of your garden chores. Anybody who has been poked a thorn, scraped by a branch, or accidentally grabbed a dead bee knows exactly what I'm talking about. This is hands down, my favorite hummingbird feeder. It holds 32oz of liquid, is easy to clean, and the hummers love it. We have two and are going to add a third! *ahem* Because the ground seems to be much harder now that I'm over 40. Manure tea helps to condition the soil so plant roots can better absorb nutrients and provides beneficial microbes. It's great to add to your compost pile to accelerate the process, too. This is a great reusable bag for yard cleanup, harvesting vegetables or fruits, or hauling seedlings out to the back 40. So much better than using plastic garbage bags! OK, so this one isn't going to fit in your stocking. But you can be sure that every gardener is going to need to rake leaves or clear debris, and those cheap plastic rakes just won't do the job. Where there are gardens, there are bugs! Keep the mosquitoes, flies, and other critters away while you're gardening with this natural insect repellent. Mix with hand lotion and apply to bare skin, or put a drop or two on your shirt collar or pulse points. Because gardenin' ain't easy. Best Stocking Stuffers for Gardeners
