This Christmas, let the gardener in your life know how you treasure their contributions to horticulture. Give them a gift that reflects their passion – gardening!

The Best Christmas Gifts for Gardeners: Your Holiday Gift Guide

I’ve included low-, medium–, and high-priced items so that you can find something to fit your budget. There are also stocking stuffers at the end of the Christmas gifts for gardeners list so that you can pick up something small and inexpensive for grab bags, secret Santa gifts, and stocking stuffers.

Christmas Gifts for Gardeners

The Original Cobra Head Weeding Tool

This is my absolute favorite tool. It is the best tool for weeding. I use it to dig out stubborn dandelions and crabgrass. It is also helpful for creating rows or furrows for seeds when planting in the spring. There are about a thousand uses for it! The metal tip is very sturdy, and the handle is comfortable for long stretches of weeding or gardening.

I received a free Cobra Head Weeding Tool many years ago from the manufacturers so that I could review it, and I stand by my review: this is the best weeding tool I have ever used and one that I recommend with enthusiasm.

The Cobra Head Weeding Tool is a thoughtful and useful gift for the gardener in your life.

SONGMICS 9 Piece Garden Tool Set Includes Garden Tote and 6 Hand Tools Heavy Duty Cast-aluminum Heads Ergonomic Handles UGGB31L

I’m totally in love with this tool set. You get nine items plus the garden tote for a great price. Six hand tools are included. Each has an ergonomic grip (soft handles) for easy gardening. Take note if you’re buying a gift for someone with arthritis; these are great tools for people who have trouble holding tools for an extended period. Another thing I love about these tools is the bright yellow stripe down the handle. Having lost my favorite dandelion weeding tool because the darned handle was brown and I put it down in the garden and couldn’t find it, having a bright splash of color on the handles of tools makes them easy to find if you drop them! Tool Set

Felco F-2 Classic Manual Hand Pruner

When I worked at one of the nation’s top 10 garden centers, the staff was issued Felco F-2 Classic Manual Hand Pruners as part of their work equipment. There’s a good reason the garden center chose this pruner for their nursery staff: it’s a durable, functional, multi-purpose pruner that rarely lets you down. Use it to prune shrubs, roses, perennials, you name it. The bright red handles make it easy to find in the garden. Blades can be replaced with a simple screwdriver and a replacement blade, so you don’t need to buy another set of pruners. The steel handles, tips, and well-made grips make this pruner one that lasts. My Felco pruners are 20 years old and still going strong. You cannot go wrong with Felco F-2 pruners.

My Felco Pruner is on the right. It has a red handle. I have owned this pruner for almost 30 years, and it is still going strong. I used it this past weekend. Felcro brand products are very well made.

Bonsai Tree Seed Starter Kit – Mini Bonsai Plant Growing Kit, 4 Types of Seeds, Potting Soil, Pots, Pruning Shears Scissor Tool, Plant Markers, Wood Gift Box, eBook, Indoor Garden Gardening Gifts Idea

I’ve always wanted to try my hand at bonsai. I’m fascinated with Japanese gardens but don’t have the room – or the time – to install a special Japanese garden on my property. Bonsai, the ancient art of shaping miniature trees, would allow me to enjoy a beautiful bit of Asian living art inside my home without installing a unique garden. This kit contains everything you need to enjoy a bonsai plant inside your home. It is a great Christmas gift for gardeners who garden in an apartment, assisted living facility, nursing home, or small space. Bonsai Kit

5 – Star Foldable Garden Kneeler With Handles And Seat – Bonus Tool Pouch – Portable Garden Stool – Thick EVA Pad (Large – 23.5 x 10.5 x 19″, Green)

Kneelers make gardening more comfortable, especially during long weeding or planting sessions. This garden kneeler converts into a portable stool so that gardeners can sit and tend their plants from a seated position. It is ideal for use in a raised bed garden. The height of the kneeler and the bench seat place gardeners at an ideal level to work on plants such as tomatoes, peppers, etc. It’s also nice and sturdy, and you can hose off the mud and dirt when you have finished gardening for the day.  Garden Kneeler

Haws Indoor Watering Can with Rose and Gift Box, 2-Pint/1-Liter, Copper

If I were to treat myself to anything this Christmas, it would be an authentic Haws watering can. These British-made watering cans remind me of conservatories and little old ladies in Agatha Christie novels puttering about watering their rosemary topiaries. I love them. They are so beautiful you can leave them out on the table as an object d’art. The long spout and rose (the nozzle on the end) are perfect for reaching all types of houseplants. A gorgeous yet functional and sturdy gardening gift for the one you love. Haws Watering Can

Topeakmart Indoor/Outdoor 2-Tier Metal Flower Stand Plant Stand Rack w/Tray Design Garden & Home Black,33.5 x 13.4 x 31.9in. (W x D x H)

Double your windowsill space with this functional and beautiful plant stand! For the houseplant enthusiast or the herb gardener, this plant stand lets you grow twice as many plants in the same space. Place it on the kitchen windowsill with pots of fresh herbs for the gourmet. Add it to an apartment window for the avid indoor gardener. Whatever you choose, it’s a sure winner for Christmas gifts for gardeners.  2-Tier Metal Flower Stand

Worm Factory 360 Worm Composting Bin + Bonus “What Can Red Wigglers Eat?” Infographic Refrigerator Magnet (Black) – Vermicomposting Container System – Live Worm Farm Starter Kit for Kids & Adults

Okay, so a worm farm sounds like a gag gift for Christmas. But gardeners know that worm castings – worm poop, to be specific – are like gold for soil. Worms are odorless; they won’t escape and party through your house and they eat kitchen scraps. Just keep your new worm composting bin in a warm place and remember to feed them. (I have an article and an interview with Henry Owen, worm composting book author, here on Home Garden Joy.)  For the enthusiastic organic gardener, this worm composting kit is a fun yet practical gift. Live Worm Farm Kit

Indoor Garden Hydroponic Growing System: Plant Germination Kit Aeroponic Herb Vegetable Growth Lamp Countertop with LED Grow Light – Hydrophonic Planter Grower Harvest Veggie Lettuce

With the price of fresh produce sky-high this year, what could be better than growing your own? This compact, under-the-counter indoor light system enables you to grow micro greens, lettuce, and herbs right in your own kitchen! It’s reasonably priced, easy to set up, and a great gift for your favorite gardener or cook. Indoor Garden Hydroponic System.

If you’re thinking about building a vegetable garden this year, raised beds are one of the best ways I know of to start a vegetable garden.

Winter Homesteading Projects

Even though it’s cold and snowy out, winter homesteading projects beckon. As I write this, snow is falling in sheets outside my office windows, covering the orchard trees with a blanket of white. Last week, an ice storm knocked power out for 36 hours – and knocked pines down every which way. We had poles…
