Pink gardening gifts

Victorian gardening gifts

Feeling generous? Why not splash out on either of the following Victorian gifts. Your gardening friend will know you have spent a lot of money and no serious gardener is going to dislike a Victorian style glass bell jar or a Victorian style cloche. The glass bell jar can even be used in the kitchen or house to cover up food.

Both Crocus and Greenfingers stock some great Birdhouses that really challenge the old boring perceptions of birdhouses and in the process become really great gardening gifts.

Who said birdhouses had to be boring?

Kids gardening gifts

The adults were all going crazy over wellies last year so it is only fair that this year the kids have a turn. Using special pens you can create your own wellie designs. Fun fun fun.

Plants and flowers

Buying someone a plant as a gift can be risky business but you are probably safe buying a Phalaenopsis orchid. They produce big flattened flowers that cascade over the side of the pot and the flowers will last for several weeks. Many supermarkets have started selling orchids but you are going to get a much better specimen, and a more appropriate gift, from a garden center or online specialist retailer.

Plants for the garden

If you are really looking to impress a bay tree is bound to do just that. A pair of these trees will frame a doorway wonderfully and also provide aromatic leaves that can be used in all sorts of cuisines.
