To my mind nothing beats good quality garden tools, to have them engraved for you is something rather special and, if there is more than one gardener or helper you can make sure you are using your own tools.

It is personalised with the name or logo of choice. The tools are made from solid copper with wooden handles and it all comes with a handy matching bag to store it in.
Seeds and Plants Gifts For Gardeners
It’s not easy at the moment to find seeds and plants as many garden centres are closed but here on Etsy I have discovered to my delight many plants and seed collections. Whether you’re searching for sumptuous succulents or wonderful wildlife seed mats and seed bombs for bees you are sure to find something to suit you here.
The GowerFlower company has a variety of seed collections, they are based, as the name suggests, in Wales, they specialise in UK native seeds for bees, pollinators and other beneficial insects.
Try them for wildflower seeds to grow and nurture a beautiful spring wildflower garden. Bee bombs are a great way of developing a wildlife friendly garden or allotment. A truly environmentally friendly gift for gardeners.
