Baskets

• When putting together a collection of gardening supplies, consider placing the present in a container that the recipient can use again. Sturdy wooden baskets not only look great, but can be used to keep gardening tools and supplies. Buckets or pails also have a charming appearance and can be useful for keeping a garden. For a more unusual container, slip some supplies into a watering can.
  
  

Seeds and Flowers

• Give his garden a jump start by including seeds and plants in your gracious gift. A variety of seed packets will give him the opportunity to grow a beautiful garden that consists of many different types of flowers. For larger baskets, throw in a few potted plants, such as a dahlia or mums. Bulbs, such as tulips or amaryllis, also hold the promise of blooming into colorful flowers.
  
  

Gardening Tools

• Make planting the seeds a bit easier by including a number of gardening tools in the gift basket. Place small gardening shovels, trowels, rakes, pruners and snips in the basket. To keep her green thumb from getting too dirty, throw in a pair of gardening gloves; better yet, pick a pair in a fun pattern or her favorite color. Spray bottles or quirky animal-shaped watering cans will help keep the garden wet and ready to grow.
  
  

Books and Magazines

• An avid gardener will love the opportunity to further immerse himself in the world of gardening with relevant reading material. Books and magazines on plants and flowers, gardening tips, garden design and other related topics will get him thinking about his garden even when he's not there. Videos, such as episodes of Victory Garden or Martha Stewart, provide another way for him to learn more about gardening.
