Thursday, 20 November 2014

Do you have a gardener in your life that’s fed up with the same old wellies and garden hose? Perhaps you wish to leave some subtle hints for gardening accessories you would be proud to have on show in your own garden. Then look no further as we unveil the 2014 Vialii Garden Design Christmas Gifts for Gardeners list….

 

Christmas gifts for gardeners

Need some Christmas inspiration? Well, look no further…

Stylish Terrarium

Hanging terrariums are a great space saving idea that allows your recipient to have an indoor garden. Seasonal bauble versions will look stunning on your Christmas tree but will last throughout the seasons. Those by the Urban Botanist are made from natural materials and can be purchased containing airplants or even dried scented fruit and spices, it’s a bit more contemporary than a bowl of pot-pourri! Perfect for Christmas as well as year round quirky decor.  We can’t wait to show you some photos of our Epiphyte version adoring our Christmas tree. £44.95.

Statement Hose

If your standard green garden hose is detracting from your contemporary garden design, how about one of these beautiful coloured hoses by Garden Glory. They come in a range of colours and we LOVE the matching set of antler shaped wall fixings!

Space Saving Hanging Planter

If you’re short on space on the ground or shelves these hanging planters from Boskke still allow you to grow plants. Plus they are super cool and unusual and will be a definite talking point with your friends.  The recycled plastic indoor planters come in a range of vivid colours. Boskke also do outdoor versions, ceramic  indoor versions and transparent versions for orchids, whose roots would be exposed to sunlight in the wild. From £14.95.

A brilliant way to add plants in a small space

Copper Plant Labels

With all the gold and silver to be found on Christmas ornaments, why not add some copper into the mix with these copper plant labels from Wells and Winter.  Simply write on them with a biro and the pressure leaves on indentation behind. Much prettier than white plastic labels, these beauties will be adorning some of our pots very soon. From 35p.

These will just improve with age when they develop a fine coating of verdi-gris

Rustic Cloche

Perhaps your loved ones feel plastic nets are too unsightly a method to protect young plants from birds and rabbits. These rustic architectural cloches by Sophie Conran may be just the ticket. They’re handmade and will add class to a rustic styled garden as well as keeping your prized veg safe from cheeky visitors. £15.95.
