Need a Last-Minute Gift? Buy a Giftcard!

Garden Center

A shrewd gift-giver is always listening for clues that their loved ones occasionally drop about the things they would love to have or need to replace. For many people, however, these subtle clues often escape us and before we know it we’re less than a week away from Christmas without even a list of ideas. If that’s your situation, don’t worry. Gift cards can rescue us from these tricky places—especially if they let you buy new plants or improve the garden!

Why Buy a Gift Card From a Garden Center? 

You don’t need to be a green thumb to enjoy a gift card from a garden center. Even if your friend has never planted a carrot in their life, this token may finally be their entrance into the world of gardening. Unlike other gifts, which we might use and discard, or eat and digest; a gift card for a garden center is like giving the promise of spring itself. It’s a present that can grow into a tree that you’ll cherish for the rest of your life, or a garden which can nourish your family for many seasons!

A Beautiful Garden 

We don’t need any scientific studies to tell us how nourishing and fulfilling it is to live in beautiful places. A gift card from our garden center can blossom into new perennials and annuals to beautify a garden. From native plants to popular garden treasures, the list of possibilities is about as wide as your imagination. We don’t just have plants either, but compost, mulch, soil amendments, and all the ingredients necessary for a thriving garden! 

New Trees and Shrubs 

There’s perhaps no other gift as enduring as a tree, which can easily outlive us and even the lifespan of our houses. Bestowing shade, shelter, nuts, fruit, bird habitat, and colorful leaves throughout the seasons, trees keep giving back year after year. Shrubs are equally valuable, providing structure, blossoms, color, berries, and a middle story to our designs. Both trees and shrubs are lifelong companions that improve our lives as well as our landscapes!

Imagine if you could give your loved ones good health, more energy, and tasty food for Christmas. With a gift card to the garden center, all of those things are possible. Whether from a garnish garden in the kitchen, or a full-sized vegetable plot outdoors—fresh vegetables and herbs are some of the most energizing gifts possible! It’s not just the food itself, but the experience of planting, tending, and harvesting that are also great gifts and wholesome activities that you can do with the family.   

Hardscape Features

A big pile of rocks may not be the first gift that comes to mind when you think of your loved ones. Indeed, rocks in your stocking may seem like a punishment, but in the great outdoors, they become a great gift to one’s landscape. Whether they’re wishing for rock mulch, stepping stones, pavers, or other features, your friends and family can easily dedicate our gift cards towards improving their hardscapes.
