Christmas wish list: Our gardening kit stocking-fillers
It’s the most wonderful time of the year, a time to spread love and Christmas cheer. And what better way to do that than with personalised gardening kits to suit each member of the family? Give your sister who has a green thumb some bulbs to plant. Indulge your bookworm cousin with his next favourite horticultural read. Perhaps you’d like to gift your little niece her very own GrowHomeBucket® so she can try her hand at growing potatoes. And maybe you’d like to give your dad some vegetable seeds so he can finally grow the veggie garden of his dreams.

Our Christmas wish list top 10
#1 The Bulb Book
Comprehensive and easy to understand, The Bulb Book by Charles Barnhoorn is an inspiring read for South African gardeners, and covers all aspects of selecting and planting bulbs, as well as bulb and soil care. Barnhoorn also includes tips for bulb watering and feeding, garden design, flower display and flower care. If your loved one enjoys a good book, then why not gift them this one?
#2 Amaryllis bulbs
The Amaryllis, or Christmas Flower, comes in a vast array of sizes and colours. Some of these colours include white, soft rose, pink, magenta, salmon, orange, red, mahogany, red and white striped. Double or single-stemmed, Amaryllises are among the easiest, fastest and most spectacular of all plants to grow, producing huge blooms in less than five weeks from planting. Explore different Amaryllis varieties and colours in our seasonal range, and pick out the ones that your family members will love, like Alfresco, Christmas Star, Top Choice, and Blushing Bride.
