To take the guesswork out of gift buying, we’ve found practical and helpful gifts for any occasion, sorted by theme to help find everything you are looking for.

Top 5 “Garden Tools” Gifts

1) Mosquito Repellent Lawn Incense
Stake an extra-large mosquito repellent incense stick in a flower bed, planter, or directly into the yard to ward off pests. It’s powered by DEET-free natural repellent made with lemongrass oil and geraniol (from geraniums) and creates bug-fighting coverage of about 200 square feet. When a stick is done, it’s biodegradable, too.

2) Window Herb Planter
This window herb garden lets you grow fresh ingredients in any space. The modern, clear planter adheres to a non-porous surface (like a window, tile, or mirror) without glue or suction cups, and can easily be repositioned. Integrated drain holes and catch basin create a complete urban gardening system.

3) Ceramic Frog & Toad House
Give a frog or toad a safe retreat with this Ceramic Frog & Toad House. With an open, moist base at the front and a dry, ceramic shelf in the back, local amphibians won't want to leave.

4) Artisan Gardening Shears
Barebones Living: Artisan Gardening Shears - Trimming

5) Stacking Solitary Bee Hive
Bees make great guests. Host them in this adorable, stackable bee habitat and they’ll pollinate flowers, fruits, and vegetables, making your garden lush. Made from sustainably sourced wood and designed to suit their needs, this hotel is good for the bees, the environment, and your backyard.
