As someone who is garden obsessed, I am constantly trying to gift garden-related items, in the hopes that I’ll convert a friend into being a gardener. This holiday gift guide is perfect for all levels of interest in gardening, hoping that you can cultivate a deeper love.
Additionally, I find that unexpected gifts that speak to both the recipient and the gift-giver is what makes them really unique and impactful. This holiday, I have five ideas for you that transcend the level of garden experience and interest really. Perfect for any gardener – even the supposed “black thumb”.
- Pot with Greenwash, 2. Paper Pot Press, 3. Wooden Spoon set, 4. Cutting board, 5. Germination plates.
For The Host: Potted Bulbs
Studio Planter in Greenwash, $25
This holiday gift is for any host this season and is a “set it and forget it” moment that will bring joy all the way through into this Spring. This will surprise and delight people for sure, and gardeners especially. Potted bulbs! Simply snag a gorgeous pot (these greenwash pots are to die for), place a bit of soil in the bottom, then place your bulbs as you would outside, about 3x as deep as the size of the bulb, keeping them from touching if planting multiple. Cover with soil, throw a bow on the pot, and you’re good!
For the Houseplant Afficianado: Germination Plates
Set of two germination plates, $24
Everyone got into houseplants in 2020, let’s be real. So you can take that enthusiasm to the next level with these cool germination plates that keep seeds, bulbs, and cuttings in place. Stylish, functional, and honestly just cool.
For the Veggie Gardener: A Paper Pot Press
Paper Pot Press, $28
I would die (in a good way) if I received this as a holiday gift. It’s simple and thoughtful, and much easier than making your own origami paper pots (I know from past experience). I can also almost guarantee that anyone who grows veggies is interested in starting them from seed. This is perfect for that.
For The Black Thumb: A Cutting Board And Spoons
Gathering Bartender’s Cutting Board, $58 / Limonada Spoon Set, $68
While I don’t actually subscribe to the black thumb notion, I get that there are humans who will never garden. For those people, we gift beautiful and purposeful cutting boards with stunning spoons. If they get into gardening, they can use the cutting board as a tray for pots, which is a win-win.
I absolutely adore Bloomist as a one-stop shop for essentials and timeless pieces that encourage the art of bringing nature in. I recently featured them whilst talking about flower frogs – they have some great ones! I hope you love these gift ideas and give them a good look over – the website is full of beauty and fun surprises.
