Give your favorite gardener a special gift this Valentine’s Day; one that is sure to provide beauty and enjoyment throughout the year.

Fill a colorful tin, unique crate or tool caddy with a few gardeners’ favorites. Include several green and brown balls of twine for staking plants and other garden tasks. Add some hand tools like a weed knife for weeding, digging, dividing plants and more. A quality bypass pruner, garden knife and scissors are always welcome and useful gifts.

Show them you care by including gardeners soap and hand lotion. And speaking of lotions, add some sunscreen and bug spray.  Check out the tinted safety glasses and readers for weeding. Further protect their eyes and skin when gardening by including a wide brimmed hat.

Be sure to add a packet or two of plant tags and few of their favorite seeds to complete your valentine gift.

A bit more information:  Increase the value of your gift. Select a tin or container that can be used to store the tools or made into a planter. It’s just another way to remind your valentine that you care.
