Gardener’s Gift Guide: Garden Favorites

My sister requested “plants I cannot kill”. She might have been thinking fake plants, but I’m going to gift her some house plants I’ve had luck with: pothos, ZZ, and snake plant.

These are all great ideas! I love the Gardener’s hex tomato cages too – such a cool design!

I love this gift guide. So many of those items are on my wish list. Money is tight this year so I am making my gifts. I’m making a seed box from a tin(altoid size) which I will fill with an assortment of seeds and markers in a theme. For example a herb garden or a tea garden. This will be for some my garden friends.

Ooooo it’s so difficult to pick just one! I want them ALL . It would be down to the cedar raised beds or watering grids for me!

Being a new gardener myself, I’ve lived on the motto, trial and error. Do I always know what I’m doing? No. But I figure if I don’t try and either fail or succeed ill just keep waiting and waiting to plant seeds, or start composting, or try new arrangements in the garden. No one else in my family gardens, so I have come to truly rely on the outside gardening community. I started with instagram and found multiple websites along the way. Since I live in arizona and I havent been here my whole life i have come to rely upon this site and already have your grow calendar. I have been eyeing the squash tunnel from gardeners, and I am planning on giving that to myself for the holidays. I have realized that my cucumbers and green beans need more space to grow and since my space isn’t the largest, it seems like the best choice. Sure I’ve given other gifts to my family, but this tunnel is something that will allow us to grown more, and when we eventually move, you bet its coming with us. Thank you for all your advice and hard work that has allowed me to learn so much. Happy holidays!

Gifting my kids and hubby tools for the garden! We love to be outside together :). And lots of Legos for the kids too, of course!

I think the ollas would be a great gift for my daughter who has just started gardening. Also the garden grid would be great for a beginner gardener. Thanks

Loving the list! I’m giving a friend a galvanized watering can and mini hand gardening tools for seedlings and transplants!

Wow! All these gift ideas are so perfect for the avid gardener! I would love to gift or receive the harvest apron , the watering grids, your planting guide calendar is definitely on my wishlist too! Thanks for sharing all these wonderful items I will be sending my mom in Tennessee some rare seed packets so we can both enjoy gardening together even though long distance! Season’s greetings!

Such good gift ideas! I’m already getting my father in law a stand up weeder tool so he doesn’t have to bed over to weed!

I got my husband’s grandma an amaryllis bulb from Gardener’s Supply this year! Also for my mother-in-law (who is a lefty) and just had carpal tunnel surgery, I got her a pair of Felcos from their ergonomic line!

I’ve asked for hose on/off valves and fogg it sprayers for my 3 hoses. I’m sending gifts from my garden to family.

My mother in law is an avid gardener, and I’m going to gift her a storage bin for her seed collection!

Hi Angela. I’m planing to give raised bed mix from Az worm farm and lettuce seedlings to my three grandchildren and off course toys.

I am the only gardener in my circle so far so I don’t have anyone to gift to. However, it’s been a hard year and we haven’t been able to get started on the expansion we built in our garden. I asked for Growing In The Garden soil mix from AZ worm farm for Christmas and my generous parents had 4 yards delivered this week as my Christmas present! Expansion is getting planted now. Better late than never!

My mom is getting a Joey apron this year. Great gift ideas list!

I really Enjoy your content and contributions. @gardeners is an amazing company. Happy to see you working with them. I’the perfect gift for my gardener would be. Deluxe A-Frame Plant Stand

One day I’ll get the watering grids! This year my hubby gets a Solo Stove fire pit and I’m so excited to try it out.

Gardener’s Deluxe Tractor Scoot is definitely on my dream list! But honestly I really just need a dibbler so I stop using the back of a pen haha! But I will be definitely recommending Arizona Worm Farm’s soil this season and am excited to try their seed starter mix soon!

I’ll be giving homegrown dried herb mixes to family & friends for Christmas! Love from my garden to them!

I am giving my sister oyas. I think that’s how you spell it

I’m giving my dad some easy to start garden plants and my time helping him build a greenhouse!

The Joey harvesting apron!! Would love to get one myself too

Wow. Those watering grids look terrific! That’s what I want this year for sure!! Thanks for sharing!

I keep thinking my mom would adore a chicken wire crop coop from Gardeners Supply… but really really hope someone remembers I’d love a seed starting kit and grow lights.

Ohhhhhh so many great things here I want for myself!! This is a one stop shop for anyone who loves to garden! I want to try the growoya! I keep seeing it pop up here and there. What a brilliant idea!

I’m giving myself a pair of Felco’s and raised cedar beds this year.

Giving someone a soil testing kit for Christmas!

Giving my daughter (my preteen garden buddy!) Several gardening books about drying herbs, seeds etc and some more seeds!

The cedar for more raised beds, pruners, and a Joey apron for sure!!! I am so happy to have discovered your blog and website!

I will be giving my husband the wireless bluetooth speaker he’s be longing for!

Bought several of the flip over netting frames for fellow lettuce growing friends! Love Gardeners!for Christmas, my husband is expanding our gardening space so we can grow more in order to donate food. So rewarding!

Giving a new set of gardening gloves to my Mom!

I love the ideas. After just planting tons of bulbs I may get that wooden dibbler for myself! . I’m getting my hubby a new grill.

For the giveaway: I am gifting tomato and zucchini seeds to my sister in law for her garden next year!

I’m making calendula oils and gifting them 🙂

Its simple but I’d like to get a bee hotel from gardeners! They’re so cute and I really like the teardrop look. From your list, blog and Instagram, I’ve really been into azwormfarm. I’m from Arizona too, but closer to Sedona, so I’ve been greatly interested.

Anything from Floret is a great gift, from her books to her seeds. This year books seem to be what I want to buy the most. Maybe it’s that cozy feeling you get from them When you are stuck at home.

Love all of these! My number one gift ask this year was the three tier grow light system from Gardeners to set me up for next years growing season in the house I just bought with my fiancé! Can’t wait for all of the beautiful garden memories

I have been really wanting the Joey apron, the watering grid, & the AZ worm soil. This has only been my 1st year so I have time. I also want a greenstalk planter. Some day…..

The growoyas would be great to help with watering! Such a great gift idea!

Giving away the best gift….. seeds to a newbie gardener! Who knows maybe the seeds that I share will get her to be the next organic gardener! Love your posts.

I want to give this to my mom! She works hard in her garden

I want to get some cedar beds for Christmas that would be amazing!

Definitely giving the gift of gardening and a soil test kit!! Awesome!!

I’m giving friends lots of seeds from my garden and stock. I also like to give books! (For the Gardners’ giveaway!)

After gardening for a couple of years I realized how often I leave tools in different places and they’re so hard to find when I need them. I tried out something for myself called bucket boss which is basically like a jacket for a 5 gallon bucket where I can slot in all my tools and just carry the bucket around to wherever I’m working. I am going to gift this to my parents who love gardening and have been doing so for many many years! Hopefully they like it

I’m gifting seeds to help start friends’ gardens! Love the water grids too.

I have big plans for expanding our garden in the spring and so many of the items you shared are on my Christmas wishlist. Thanks for sharing!!

For the Gardeners Giveaway…

The perfect gift for a gardener would be more plants.
That is one of my favorite gifts to give and receive. One of my sisters had such a great idea, which I hope to put in effect next year: plant exchange from our own personal gardens.

I would like to add obelisks to grow clematis, sweet pea and climbing Roses

I’m getting my mom binoculars for watching birds in her yard! She has towhees and wrens and loves watching them 🙂

This is a great list!
I am giving my father in law 3 ollas for his garden. He is getting older and it is harder for him to water as often. I think they will make his gardening life easier!

I’m giving my older daughter more indoor grow lights and a gorgeous ceramic planter 🙂

Gardener’s compost bin.
Need to do a better job of composting coffee/tea and egg shells

My mom used to garden but is no longer able to because of her health so I am giving her a calendar with photos of the flowers I grew last year so she can have a bit of the garden with her all year.

Definitely want to gift the watering grid to myself!! Bought a lot of seeds this year and plan to gift some of the starts to a garden-loving friend!

I love the window box on Gardners.com. I will be gifting starter Gardner tools this year. So excited!

I’m gifting homemade soaps and candles for Christmas.

I love the idea of a perpetual growing calendar! I’m going to be giving a mushroom book to my dad so we can add that to our gardening plan for next year!

I’m giving my dad some BT concentrate in the hopes that it helps with whatever has been eating his tomatoes!

I’ve been pressing flowers from my garden over the last few months and plan to put them in a frame to give to my grandmother. She is an amazing gardener! She is my go-to source when I have an issue in my garden. She is one of my biggest inspirations and I’m forever grateful to have inherited her love of gardening.

I am giving some pollinator seeds to each of my nephews this year! Starting them young!

Not garden related but we’re giving our boys a puppy! On my wish list is a soaker hose!

My goal for the Spring is to carve out some new flower beds, get my mango and avocado trees in the ground. It doesn’t sound like much but I need to coordinate with the hubby which can take time.

Thank you for sharing your experience with us! I have learned so much already, but just beginning and still making lots of mistakes. But that is learning. I did receive. Neat garden trellis from Gardener’s for my birthday. I have many other items on my wish list.

This year I not my mom the most beautiful dahlia tubers. I can’t wait for her to add them to her garden!

I love the guide a lot of the things there are on my wishlist

This year I’m giving my young niece a hand-made gift certificate with a promise that in the spring I will teach her how to grow her first garden. The certificate will be tucked in a decorative basket along with items she’ll need for that special “event” (trowel, gardening gloves, etc).

🙂

garden gift cards as we can not get together this year.

I’ve always wanted to try an Olla and have added it to my wish list for the holidays! Thanks for all of the great gift recommendations. Too bad most of them are going on MY wish list!

I love all the gift ideas

Wow- as a newbie to gardening all of these things are amazing! Anything would be an improvement from one spade and one watering can

These look like excellent gifts for me. I’m getting my husband a rear view camera for his car and an electric shaver. But I’m sure I can harvest him something from the garden also, beets or radishes. LOL.

Loving this guide! My Christmas list included a tiller/cultivator. I got my partner a few makita “toys”. He and I both love their tools! Hope you have a great holiday season! Would be so grateful to win this. I’m increasing my gardens this year for more cut flowers and could use some more tools.

I would love to have a lot of gardeners item for myself. I bought an aero garden for my nephew’s family for Christmas.

Like to give or receive a dibbler. But really want some dahlia tubers!
