Last Minute Holiday Gifts for the Green Thumb in Your Family

When you’re shopping for the green thumb in your family, it can certainly make holiday shopping rough, especially if you aren’t one yourself! The weather outside is freezing, so how can you even think about something like gardening? Lucky for you, Custom Lawn is here to help with our green thumb gift guide:

Give Them a Greenhouse

greenhouse-green-thumb-gift-guide-custom-lawnAn easy-to-assemble greenhouse is a thoughtful gift for any green thumb. While Frosty may not have liked the one in which he found himself, your gardener will just love it! You can get them in various sizes and they won’t have to consult the almanac before using it.

Go Green with a Rainwater Urn

A large rainwater urn is another great choice this time of year. Not only can it be used to catch rain underneath a downspout, but it can also catch melting snow that might otherwise puddle up and freeze on the ground.

Herb Planter Boxes for Every Season

Herb planter boxes are another great green thumb gift that won’t leave them longing for spring. Herbs can be started indoors in a sunny window and transplanted to a patio or deck when spring arrives.

Everyday Necessities at a Fraction of the Cost

Take a look at what’s popular and find out what they need to find the best gift options out there! While it may not seem like the right time, winter is a great time to shop for your yard due to lower prices during the off-season.

    Sean O’D took over the lawn care for my yard last year. It was in poor to mediocre shape with wild violets and bare spots. But after a year under his care, this spring my lawn is like green carpet. Deep green color and thick without weeds, violets and bare spots. My neighbors have commented on how lush my lawn looks. I’m very pleased.
