Christmas Stocking Stuffers For Gardeners
1. GARDENING GLOVES
This is one of the most practical things that every gardener needs. Gloves don’t last forever and we can never have too many pairs. These high-quality ones will help to prevent skin wounds and keep their hands and nails clean while they’re doing yard chores. They are machine washable and come in a variety of sizes for both women and men.
2. HAND PRUNING SHEARS
Hand pruning shears are always good stocking stuffers for gardeners. This one has a revolving handle for extra comfort, and its ergonomic hand-fitting design is suitable for every type of pruning. It’s also the top-of-the line brand, and the best pruners your money can buy.
3. NATURAL GARDEN TWINE
Twine is so helpful and they can use it for an array of things. It works great to tie back tomatoes, cucumbers, and other veggies. It’s strong, but not rough, so it does not damage delicate plants and vines. I also like to use it for hanging decorations for a cute and natural look.
4. CUTE NAIL CLEANING BRUSH
No matter how careful we are, getting dirt under our fingernails (and even toenails) is inevitable. This adorable and durable beech wood whale nail brush is the perfect stocking stuffer for any gardeners in your life to keep their hands and nails clean. They can leave it on the counter or in their shower for easy use.
5. PLANT MARKERS
These multi-colored plant label markers are useful for labeling and categorizing plants. Gardeners can use graphic pencil, mechanical pencil, standard permanent markers, or grease markers to write on them. They also have a crease at the point to make them easy to insert into soil and growing mediums.
6. GARDEN KNIFE
This stainless steel weeding knife has both straight & serrated edges. It’s useful for dividing plants, planting bulbs, flowers, and herbs, digging out weeds, removing rocks, cutting through roots, and so much more. The comfortable wooden handle allows for a good grip for all-day digging and better control.
7. HAND TROWEL
The DeWit Forged Transplant Trowel has a narrower blade than a regular hand trowel, making it the perfect tool for working in containers, tight spots, and confined areas. The full-length of the blade is sharpened to make gardening chores quick and easy. It’s ideal for planting bulbs or seedlings, and other precise tasks.
8. WEEDING TOOL
Pulling out pesky weeds or breaking up tough soil to get down to the roots can be frustrating and time consuming. This amazing tool will make those jobs so much easier. It comes with a blade that is designed to cut through any type of soil, and it’s by far the best hand weeding tool on the market.
9. GARDENER’S GOLD HAND SOAP
This biodegradable soap is homemade with only natural scents and colors, and comes packaged in a compact, reusable, and recyclable storage tin. This is a thoughtful idea to help gardeners clean their hands without harmful chemicals, and it would make a great Christmas stocking stuffer.
10. ULTRA-MOISTURIZING HAND CREAM
This hand therapy cream is a favorite with gardeners. It conditions their skin, nails, and cuticles with super hydrators like, macadamia seed oil and shea butter, to help replenish the moisture lost after a day of digging in the dirt. It’s also rich in herbal extracts, like cooling cucumber and rosemary leaf, to help protect their hard-working hands.
11. STURDY STRETCH PLANT TIES
Plant ties are a must for every gardener, making these sturdy stretch ties the perfect stocking stuffers. They can use it for securing plants to trellises, cages, or stakes. It is designed without any wire, and stretchy so it’s gentle on delicate plants because the wide strip of plastic won’t cut into the stems as they grow. Cut-a-size wire twist ties are also a great option and easy to reuse.
12. ALL-IN-1 TOOL SHARPENER
Garden tools tend to dull very quickly, and it’s important to keep them honed for the health of our plants. This all-in-1 sharpener is custom made to use for pruners, loppers, shears, knives, axes, hatchets, mower blades, scissors, and any other single or double edged tool. Just a few strokes and their blades will be good as new.
13. SOIL MOISTURE, LIGHT & PH METER
A 3-in-1 digital tester allows them to quickly measure the soil moisture and pH, as well as the amount of light their plants are getting to make them grow healthy and strong. It’s a very versatile tool that will help them be successful, and it doesn’t require batteries.
14. DIY SOIL TEST KIT
Regularly testing the soil is a must for the best success with growing any type of plant. With this test kit everything is color-coded, including the comparator films and capsules. So it’s fast, very easy to use, and it only takes a few minutes to see exactly what their soil type is and any nutrients it may be lacking.
15. VEGETABLE CLEANING BRUSH
This multi-purpose brush is divided into two sides and is a great filler for any gardener’s stocking. One has soft bristles for cleaning delicate foods like tomatoes, berries, apples, and zucchini without bruising or scraping. The other has stiff bristles for scrubbing harder, tough-skinned vegetables like potatoes, carrots, radish, and squash.
