The perfect gift is one that shows you know the recipient and cared enough to get something personal to them. If you are shopping for someone who loves growing their own flowers or vegetables, gardening tools are an excellent choice. Head to your hardware store and pick up any of the items below for a practical present they’ll use time and time again.

Gardening Tools to Get Someone With a Green Thumb

1. Garden Tool Belt

A tool belt has multiple compartments to keep all their gardening tools organized. When they clip it around their waist, they can move around the garden and have everything at their fingertips.

2. High-Quality Gloves

Gardening is tough on the hands, especially when dealing with rough, stick-like stems or weeds with burrs or stickers. By giving them gloves that can resist these pricks and keep them from getting dirt underneath their fingernails, they’ll be able to take even more joy in the task they love.

3. Tiller

A tiller is a type of small, portable plow. It will lift up the soil, turning it over and breaking it apart so it’s ready for planting. When used before the growing season, it aerates the soil and brings up nutrients, which will help their plants thrive.

4. Sprinkler

Hand-watering a garden takes up a lot of time. Additionally, there are hours of the day when it is better to water the plants than others. By getting them a sprinkler, your loved one can program it to engage on schedule so that they never have to worry that their plants won’t have their fill.

5. Pruning Shears

Pruning shears, or hand pruners, will become a staple in your loved one’s tool belt. They’ll make trimming flowers, shrubs, and small trees easy. Bypass pruners are the most popular; these have two curved blades–one sharpened and one not–that pass by each other to make a cut.
