Top 5 Gardening Gifts
1) Ceramic Self-Watering Herb Pot

This self-watering herb pot cultivates herbs almost all by itself. Fill it up every two to three weeks, and a plant will automatically absorb just what it needs through the planter’s unglazed ceramic water reservoir. It’s a great-looking and low-maintenance way to try your hand at gardening.
2) The Dirt Snatcher Garden Digging Tool

Get to work with a garden digging tool that makes planting flowers and bulbs an easier task. Its one-handed operation digs in, grabs dirt, and creates a plant-ready, three-inch hole in one motion. Release the pulley to fill the hole back up with dirt.
3) All-Natural Insect Repellent

Keep mosquitoes and other pests at bay with organic insect repellent. It’s non-toxic and made with 15 natural oils like citronella, lemongrass, and castor, along with other natural ingredients to ward off insects without any DEET, parabens, or harsh chemicals. Spray it on before you head outside. It helps soothe bites and stings, too. Made in the USA.
4) Home Microgreens Growing Kit

Hamama®: Home Microgreens Growing Kit - Starter Kit with Bamboo Frame
5) Smart Garden

The Smart Garden was made to grow fresh food for you automatically. It waters the plant, provides necessary lighting and makes sure your herbs, fruits, vegetables, salads and flowers have enough nutrients and oxygen at all times. This smart garden will make fresh homegrown food accessible for everyone.
