Making additions to a pro gardener’s garden can be a touchy subject. Often they already have a layout for their garden, and suggesting a change to that may not be received well, depending on the gardener. So why not get them something moveable, something that doesn’t take up a lot of room, but that’s still incredibly useful? This five-tier stackable planter from Mr. Stacky is perfect for smaller plants, perhaps vines or strawberries, and can be placed out in the garden, on a patio, or indoors by a window. It comes in several colors to best match the aesthetic of the gardener in your life.

What else takes up only a little space, is moveable, and so exciting for a gardener to get? How about a mini greenhouse! Ohuhu’s mini greenhouse is a few feet tall, which gives you plenty of room for a few rows of seedlings and some tropical plants, but not so big that it becomes an issue. Having a greenhouse would be a dream come true for many gardeners, but a regular sized one is too permanent and too big to be manageable. This one is portable and easy to set up and maintain, meaning that any gardener can enjoy it!

Now you don’t have to worry or stress over what to get the experienced gardener in your life! Whether you’re shopping for a friend or a family member, you can’t go wrong with this list of gardening goodies.

This is the single best gift to give any gardener
Metal gardening tools, gardening gloves, and several colorful flowers arranged on a patch of soil

If you’re shopping for a gardener, or maybe even looking for an idea to put on your own wish list, you may be wondering about the absolute best gardening gift. There are a lot of options, to be sure. You may have considered curating items for gardening gift baskets, or else thought about getting them a plant subscription box. There's a vast variety of tools and seeds and novelty T-shirts that any plant-devoted human may squeal about. But the one thing that stands out is a high-quality hori hori knife.
What is a hori hori knife?
Hori knives are special gardening knives that are often used for digging, weeding, and pruning. The word “hori” is the Japanese word for “to dig,” and hori hori is used to describe the sound of digging, so the name is something of a pun!

Although they’re called knives, hori hori knives are actually double bladed, meaning that both edges are sharp. This means that it is actually, technically, a dagger! There are some variations between makers, but it is typical to see blades that are marked with measurements, blades that have a smooth edge and a toothier, more saw-like edge, a fairly short blade, and a nice wooden handle.
Why is it a great gift?
Hori hori knives are multipurpose, meaning that one high-quality hori hori knife can replace several different garden tools and often do the job better than the original tools. They’re durable and long-lasting, meaning they give you a good return on your investment.
