Mother’s Day Gifts for Gardening Mums

Mother's Day is just around the corner! Check out the Plot & Petals Mother’s Day 2025 Gift Guide.

Looking for a tool with a difference, look no further than this beautiful copper garden trowel (£28). The scooped end smoothly cuts through soil with less resistance, and by holding the trowel horizontally and lifting out sections of soil, gardeners can create neat, consistent furrows for sowing seeds.

Also from Copper and Green are these customisable copper plant labels (£30 for 5). 

Who can resist a new plant or two? Marshall’s have something for everyone and these are some of my favourites from their new season collection:

Osteospernum 3D Nanuk (from £13.98) 

Hydrangea Bonfire (from £11.99) 

Sambucus Cherry Lace (from £12.99) 

Dahlia Davina Michelle (from £8.99) 

Alstroemeria White Magic - pictured (from £10.99) 

Lychnis Petite Jenny (£17.99 for 3 plug plants) 

For the Mum who loves to spend those balmy summer evenings in the garden but whose ankles are a buffet for mosquitoes, these fragrances from Alfresco not only smell amazing but also repel bugs! There are three scents to choose from - my favourite is Power. Scents start from £11.50 for 10ml. 

I’ve waxed lyrical about the Gardener’s Gift Set (£22) since I received it for my birthday earlier this year. The perfect set with treats for both the garden and the gardener.

Hanging baskets with a twist are the perfect gift for a Mum who wants a bit of design style in the garden. Chef’s kiss for this beauty from Crocus. Prices start from £12.99 

Another couple of stylish picks here from one of my favourite brands, Niwaki. For something a little different why not choose one of their bamboo hand tools? I particularly love the Bamboo Hand Rake (£12) and the Bamboo Hand Broom (£7).

Regular readers will know I am a big fan of the Heritage Organic Seed Company subscription box. If your Mum loves to grow her own vegetables and is looking for some new varieties of her old favourites then this is the subscription for her. £14.99 per month.

A gift that benefits wildlife too? May I recommend this cute Suet Cake Feeder (£3.99) from Peckish? Designed for birds to easily feed from its wire metal structure it not only feeds the birds, but looks cool too!
