Shopping for gifts for gardeners is easy. Garden tools alone could keep you in gift ideas for years. Then there’s garden totes, gardening boots, garden books…

Garden Books Gardening books are always a treasure as well as absolutely necessary resources. Here’s a list of some of the best I’ve used and enjoyed.

Garden Tool Tote Garden totes have become de facto tools. The question is whether to have a garden tote, but which style. And there are many to choose from. Important features are size (you want to be able to lift it, let alone carry it), sturdy construction and ease of organizing what’s in the tote.

Hand Pruners A high quality pair of pruners are a gardener’s best tool. There’s probably no other tool that will get more use. And a clean cut is important to the plants’ health. Look for one with replaceable parts, especially blades, and it will last that much longer.

Windowsill Herb Garden A great way to beat the winter doldrums is by growing herbs on your windowsill. Nothing hints of summer like the scent of fresh herbs. This kit comes with 3 herb plant seedlings, a decorative tray and glass pots. The variety of herb plans varies with the seasons, but the really nice thing is that they are plants, not seeds. Guaranteed success! It’s pretty enough to eat.

Foxglove Gardening Gloves I still love these gloves. I tried my first pair about 5 years ago. It took me two years to poke through a finger and I used them pretty much every day. They’re flexible enough to do delicate work, yet still protect your hands. If only they were water-proof.

There's never been an easier way to test software without destroying your primary operating system's stability. Think of how many times you wish you could press a 'reverse' button on your computer.
