Deluxe Garden Hamper
Best for greenhouse gardeners
Buy from Etsy (£44.00)
This gardening hamper includes fun growing kits such as a red hot chilli starter pack, as well as a bonsai tree introductory pack, which can help them grow a variety of small trees. It comes with 10 pots, 10 soil pellets, 10 plant markers and even a pruning kit.
Additional treats include gardening tools and gloves, and a selection of biscuits and tea (with a mug to go with it) so they can take a well earned break after they’ve spent time on their greenery.
Grow Your Own Garden Hamper
This beautiful hamper includes four packets of seeds for Sweet Peas, Forget-Me-Nots, Lavender and Daisies, ensuring a colourful and fragrant garden all year round.
To make planting easier, also included are four natural husk pots and expanding compost – everything you need to get started. Plus, wooden plant labels and chalk are included, so you can keep track of what’s planted where.
For an additional £7.50, you can also add a high-quality trowel to the hamper, perfect for digging, planting and weeding. Choose from six different designs of notecards to add to your order, making it a personalized gift for the recipient.
Garden Tea Break Hamper
Best for afternoon tea in the garden
Buy from Hampers.com (£56.00)
This is a gardening hamper with a twist! Rather than including gardening products, this hamper is perfect for people looking to unwind after spending time in their garden. It is packed full of British products; once they’ve spent a day in the outdoors they’ll love settling down to afternoon tea with baked apple and custard biscuits with a slice of Dundee cake.
The handmade soap and hand cream are also perfect for hard-working hands that have spent a day in the garden, and the scented candle is perfect for unwinding after a long day.
The Gift Box
Best for Mother’s Day
This gardening hamper from The Gift Box Store would make a great gift for any gardener. It would be especially great for Mother’s Day or Christmas. The set includes a garden fork, a trowel, gardening gloves and two scented candles in a decorative gift box.
The floral pattern on the tools makes them really distinctive, so they’re less likely to get lost amongst the flower beds. This is the perfect gardening hamper for someone who will be spending long days in the garden and then wants to come indoors to unwind.
Garden Gift Hamper
Best for allotments
Buy from Etsy (£22.50)
This gardening hamper from BRHampersCo on Etsy would make the ideal gift for any keen gardener. Not only does it come with garden products like bulbs, seeds and pots, it also contains a few treats like chocolate and coffee. You can customise the box too, by adding a travel mug if you’d like to make it extra special.
