The Garden In December
Okay, not many gardeners here in Central New Jersey are out there doing actual garden chores right now. It's already holiday season for most, so outdoor decorations are going up. Here are some gift ideas for the gardeners in your life:
- Amaryllis bulbs -great for far away family as they ship well
- Poinsettias-local greenhouses often have more unusual varieties or larger sizes
- Gift cards to online plant/seed catalogs-what plant lover wouldn't like that?
- Upgrade worn out tools
- Potted succulents-trending now and low maintenance for indoors
- For the gardener who seems to have everything, how about the gift of help? Gift your time during spring cleanup, or arrange to hire help for bigger projects. A few hours can make all the difference to an overworked gardener.
Flower of the month: Poinsettia
