Mother’s Day is this weekend, and if your mom has a passion for gardening, why not surprise her with a thoughtful and practical gift that celebrates her green thumb? At Applewood Nursery & Landscape Supply, we’ve curated a delightful selection of gift ideas that any gardening loving mom will adore.
Quality Garden Tools
Upgrade the mom in your life’s gardening experience with a selection of high-quality tools that will make gardening tasks easier and more enjoyable. Start by considering ergonomic pruners that are designed to fit comfortably in her hand, reducing strain and fatigue during pruning sessions. Look for pruners with sharp blades that make clean cuts, promoting healthier plant growth.
Next, a sturdy trowel is an essential tool for any gardener. Look for a trowel with a strong, rust-resistant blade and a comfortable handle that provides a secure grip. Whether she’s planting new flowers or digging up weeds, a reliable trowel will be her go-to tool in the garden.
Gardening tools are more than just gifts – they’re investments in her gardening passion. By upgrading her tools to high-quality, ergonomic options, you’re showing her that you appreciate and support her love for gardening.
Blooming Perennials
Treat your gardening mom to the gift of beautiful perennial plants that will bring joy and color to her garden year after year. Peonies, daylilies, and roses are timeless favorites known for their stunning blooms and reliable performance. Here’s why these perennial plants make perfect Mother’s Day gifts:
Peonies: Delight her with the luxurious and fragrant blooms of peonies. These perennial beauties come in a range of colors from soft pinks and whites to bold reds and corals. Peonies are easy to care for and can thrive for decades, rewarding her with lavish blooms each spring.
Daylilies: Brighten her garden with the cheerful and versatile daylilies. Available in a spectrum of colors and patterns, daylilies are incredibly resilient and can adapt to various growing conditions. They bloom prolifically throughout the summer, adding a burst of color to borders, beds, or containers.
Roses: Show your love with the timeless elegance of roses. Whether you choose classic hybrid tea roses, fragrant old-fashioned varieties, or compact floribundas, roses are sure to captivate her with their beauty and fragrance. With proper care, roses can bloom from spring to fall, making them a cherished addition to any garden.
Decorative Garden Pots
