People buying presents for green-fingered loved ones will not be short of gift ideas this year, reports Worcester News today (December 21st).
There are garden-related presents to suit every budget, ranging from the stylish Marrakesh lanterns, which are available for £6.99, to spherical orbits, which would brighten up any garden shed or timber arbour and are priced at £19.99.
For the gardener who has everything, the ideal gift might be adopting a vegetable as part of Garden Organic´s heritage seed library campaign to save Britain´s rarest vegetables from becoming extinct.
The vegetable varieties which the campaign hopes to conserve include the Tiger Tom tomato, climbing French bean, Robinson pea and the Yellow Intermediate mangel.
A new three-tiered plant stand could help create extra space in covered areas outdoors. Made with untreated spruce, it comes complete with plant pots ready to be filled, and could be the start of an instant herb or flower garden.
