Top 5 Gardening Gifts
1) Root Slayer Carbon Steel Shovel
Radius Garden: Root Slayer Carbon Steel Shovel - Original
2) 3-in-1 Shovel & Rake Sifter
The 3-in-1 Shovel & Rake Sifter was created for multi-purpose outdoor use all year long. It can be used as a rake then flipped over and used as a shovel or sifter. The lightness of the tool makes it easier to use for longer periods of time, while the D-grip handle provides control no matter the task at hand. This tool is great for avoiding strained muscles while working outdoors.
3) Murphy's Naturals Insect Repellent & Relief Balm
Murphy's Naturals: Murphy's Naturals Mosquito Repellent Balm - 2.0 oz
4) Reusable Flower Garden Tote
This reusable flower garden tote is the perfect way to gift a bouquet. It’s designed to hold flowers, garden stems, and herbs. Two straps wrap around and tie in front for easy bundling, while the back-seam opening can hang from a hook or doorknob.
5) Root Slayer Carbon Steel Knife
Chop and saw roots with a garden knife that is guaranteed to last a lifetime. It’s a new take on the traditional Japanese hori knife and is crafted from strong, but lightweight carbon steel. The blade is shaped like an inverted V and is lined with 12 rip-saw teeth on one side and a knife edge on the other. Together, they make quick work of the roots you might encounter while gardening. This tough tool is guaranteed to last a lifetime, too.
