A Cliché Christmas Gift





Now 30% off ALL* Plants (excluding Japanese Maples), Pottery, and bagged EarthMix® SuperNatural™ & Proganix-i™ (links to browse are in dark red!)


It’s that time of year when gardens nap under frosty blankets, and we all ponder the age-old question: what on Earth do you gift a gardener who already has everything? Fear not, for we’ve “planted the seed” of inspiration and “dug up” some truly evergreen ideas!


First, consider the gardener’s holy grail: a shiny new trowel. Because nothing says “I care” like a tool they’ll misplace in the mulch by February. Give that, with a pair of gaudy gloves—they’ll only ever wear one, but isn’t that the glove’s eternal plight?


Next, for a gift with a “rooted” message, how about a potted poinsettia? The botanical equivalent of a fruitcake, it’s festive, bright, and sure to linger in the corner until March, when someone finally asks, “Is this thing still alive?” Now at 30% off!


For the less-than-tech-savvy gardener, there’s the self-watering planter, promising hydration for thirsty plants and less guilt for forgetful owners: but you do have to water it yourself (hence ‘self-watering’). It’s the gift that says, “I know you love your plants, but you’re human, and Netflix is distracting.” All pottery is included at 30% off, along with bagged Proganix-i™ Potting Soil!


And let’s not forget the pièce de résistance: the “Grow Your Own Christmas Tree Kit.” Nothing screams optimism like the idea of sprouting a 7-foot evergreen from a seed… It’s not actually a real thing, but Bates Gift Cards always deliver!


This Saturday morning, live at 8 AM (or time-shifted to better fit your schedule), we will discuss, every landscape situation that requires attention before Christmas in your landscape, along with your questions on: “Gardening Inside Out”. Listen to our Podcast anytime! Follow and contact us:  Facebook. YouTubeInstagram.


As you “deck the halls” and “trim the tree,” remember that gardening—like Christmas—is about patience, hope, and the occasional over-the-top light display. So, go forth and Save 30% off ALL* Plants, Pottery & EarthMix® Proganix-i™ and SuperNatural™! (ends 12/19).


Wishing you a Christmas as merry and bright as a freshly gifted amaryllis!
