Gifts for the good gardener include tools, bulbs, calendars and books
Dark, cold days lie ahead, but that doesn't mean the gardener in your life can't find reason to feel a little cheer, perhaps even of the holiday type. Here are some gift suggestions for the gardener on your list:
■ The amaryllis is astonishing, especially the white Aphrodite, a double amaryllis with petals lined and edged in red picotee trim. Or the new purple-stalked Sophisticate; its wavy red and green blossoms are simply striking. Easytogrowbulbs.com carries healthy and huge bulbs for about $15 each. Pot them now to personalize this gift, which will brighten up the darkest January. While you're there, check out other offerings, such as the Oxalis, which you'll want on hand when St. Patrick's Day rolls around in March.
■ Do you know someone who has everything? Help them to protect it. The Midland W-120 radio is a home safety device that transmits National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration weather service warning alerts, warnings about approaching bad weather and other environmental hazards — tornados, ice storms, chemical spills — and even Amber Alert abduction notifications in your area. With battery backup, the radio is designed to operate even when power outages occur.
