Keeping a garden takes time and patience. Some don't realize it's an actual hobby and not just the average chore of a home owner. If you know someone that takes great pride in their garden, start looking at gifts that you can buy them for the Winter holidays. Most are inexpensive and you can be as creative as you need.
Even an expert in gardening techniques has room to expand his or her knowledge. New techniques and information comes out every year, as well as products and advice columns. Likewise, it would be a thoughtful gift to give a gardener a publication subscription to a magazine, or to buy a book. You will find that you will rarely spend over $30, even for a magazine subscription that lasts 12 months from the point of subscription.
Since a gardening hobbyist can have tastes hard to gauge, a gift certificate is a gift that allows them to find something they want or need without requiring guess work. Gift certificates are less personalized, of course, but they also lead to a higher satisfaction in gifts. If you aren't sure what to get that special someone, a gift certificate never fails.
The garden of the one receiving your gift is more than a show of one's interest- it's also a relaxing place where one can sit in peace. You can bolster the peaceful environment by purchasing garden art, statues, and even small things such as wind chimes. Bringing life to the garden with visuals and sound can create an entirely new experience for the recipient.
The most obvious choice of presents for a gardener would be seeds, bulbs, and plants to be repotted. Any garden center near you would have a nice selection, but if you can find a neighbor or even if you have your own garden you can save money on the gift. A personalized gift is a nice touch, but you can get the same effect by getting the same thing from the store and presenting it in an arrangement. Costs are usually fairly affordable for the average plant.
Small gift baskets of related items such as organic produce, gardening tools, and such are also appreciated by gardeners. Gift baskets can also include other fun items, such as candy or small gifts, so that the gardener can appreciate more than just his or her hobby. Decorate the gift basket accordingly- perhaps a Winter theme for the holidays or a Spring theme for an Easter gift.
