Gift Card Companions: Thoughtful Presents for the Landscape Visionary

Gift cards are a great way to help that landscape visionary with their landscape projects because trees and shrubs don’t really fit under the tree. However, gift cards may not present well for most, either, so we came up with a few things that would pair well with a Job’s Nursery Gift Card so your loved one has something to unwrap.

The Plant Alarm will help remind your loved one to water their plants. Green light is good, red light is dry and it’s time to water. The Tall Plant alarms are for big pots and are 14.99 each. The Original Plant alarm is for regular sized houseplant pots and are 11.99 each.

Dramm Pruners

Dramm pruners are colorful, and great quality cutting tools for those who need new pruners for dead heading and light pruning.

Several Hand Tools

DeWit Hand Tools

DeWit hand tools are great gifts for those who like to garden but prefer nice tools to work with when planting, potting or eliminating weeds with. Below is a breakdown of what each tool is used for with their corresponding letter in the photo.

A.       The Japanese Hoe, available in both right- and left-handed styles, is a great way to sever weeds from their roots with a reach to get them out from under shrubs or perennials. The DeWitt line of forged garden tools is meant to be long-lasting and have a comfortable grip for effectively removing weeds.

B.       The DeWitt Dandelion Weeder, also known as the Asparagus Harvester, is a classic stress reducer for manually removing dandelions from lawns or flower beds. This solid tool helps apply the force needed to sever the weed from its roots.

C.      The DeWit Patio Knife is designed to remove weeds growing in hard-to-reach sidewalk cracks and paver gaps. Its sharp edges on multiple sides allow for the best angle to reach that stubborn weed.

D.      The Triangle Patio Knife is another tool for removing relentless weeds that grow through paver bevels (gaps) of various sizes and sidewalk cracks. Its three blades fit in different-sized gaps where weeds insist on growing.

E.        The Three Tine Cultivator is great for soil aeration and working fertilizers and composts into the soil around your plants. Its reach is handy for reaching those hard-to-reach spots under shrubs.

F.      A tried and true trowel to dig in pots and in the ground to plant small plants or bulbs. Alex has used this brand of trowel for several years and enjoys it because it can get in there and dig so he can plant his flowers without bending the blade or the handle.

G.        The Potting Trowel is excellent for filling pots with potting soil.

The Japanese Hoes are 32.99 each, and all other DeWit Tools are 29.99 each.

Insulated and Waterproof Gloves are a great gift for those who like to get their hands dirty and believe gardening/landscaping is a year round endeavor. This brand of glove works well to keep your loved ones hands warm as well as dry as they work in the yard in the cold weather months. We carry small, medium, large sizes because hands just don’t come in one size. 14.99 each.

Marianne Red Anemone is a perennial with gorgeous red blooms.  It flowers in March.  They reach about 1 ft tall and about 2 to 3 feet wide. In our area they do well in afternoon shade and morning sun. Don't freak out that they go dormant when it gets hot out.
