14 Best Garden Gifts for Father’s Day

6th Jun 2023

Father’s Day is a day for showing your love and appreciation to the important men in your life. Whether it’s your father, grandfather, someone who is like a father to you, or another family member or friend who is doing a great job at being a dad to their kid. You can make their Father’s Day extra special this June with a garden present. Check out this list of our favourite Father’s Day gifts for the men who love caring for their garden plants, enjoy cooking up a storm on the barbecue, or just like to laze around in the sun.

For the Garden Lover

Fire Pit

Don’t let your dad miss out on a beautiful evening sitting in his garden just because it’s a bit chilly. A fire pit will keep him toasty warm and provide a focal point that he can enjoy watching, either when he’s sat with his own thoughts or enjoying some time with family or friends. We love the La Hacienda Boston Firepit as it has a mesh safety cover, is big enough to be practical without dominating the garden, and it doesn’t break the bank.

Garden Lights

Is a fire pit not quite right for your dad but you still want something to light up his garden? There are a huge range of garden lights to illuminate his favourite parts of the garden, from spotlights and post lights to lamps and table lights. To make life easier for dad, go for solar lights like the Konstsmide LED solar lights, place them in a sunny area, and watch his garden light up as the sun goes down.

Garden Chair

His garden and the good weather should be enjoyed in comfort. This Father’s Day, gift your dad a garden chair so he can sit back and relax in ultimate comfort. The Glendale relaxer chairs recline into 5 different positions and come in a range of colours to suit different personalities and garden styles. If your dad’s a bit more quirky, he might prefer the more unique option of a hammock (go the extra mile with the brightly coloured Amazonas Aruba Hammock).

Barbecue Tool Set

Does he always boast about being the king of the barbecue? Let him impress his guests at the next barbecue with a new barbecue tool set. With the option of a 13-piece stainless steel set or an 18-piece bamboo set, you can help your dad up his barbecue game (even if he believes he is already the best).

Paella Starter Set

I hope your dad’s got his taste buds ready because soon he could be serving up his very own version of the much-loved Spanish dish with this Paella Starter Set. Complete with a paella pan, all the herbs and spices needed to make the dish, and so much more, Your dad will just need to decide whether he wants seafood, chicken, or vegetable paella for his dinner (or maybe he’ll try each one throughout the summer).

Gnome Statue

Is your dad a quirky or funny guy who loves to fill his garden with the weird and wonderful? Whether he already has a collection of gnomes or he has none at all, this wheelbarrow gnome statue will bring character and be a wacky addition to his garden. It’s bound to bring a smile to everyone who spots the little guy.

Solar Frog Water Feature

Maybe a gnome isn’t wacky enough for the man in your life, maybe he’d prefer a sunbathing frog for his pond. But the frog isn’t just a decoration for your pond, it’s also a water feature itself with water spraying from the frogs mouth. Solar powered, all your dad will need to do is place the feature on his sunny pond and relax to the sound of the flowing water as it comes to life.

Heron Ornament

Does your dad love a bit of bird watching while out on a riverside walk or while fishing? One of our favourite statues and ornaments for Father’s Day is the Heron. With such intricate details and an attractive bronze finish, your dad will love to be able to look out into his garden and enjoy the beauty of the bird. Looking for a different wild animal? There are many bird options available including swans, roosters, sandpipers, cranes, and owls, as well as other wildlife like rabbits and deer.

For the Gardener

Boot Pull

Nobody wants to be traipsing mud into their home or getting their hands dirty when taking off their gardening or walking boots. Make your dads life easier, happier, and cleaner with a boot grate with boot pull. This handy accessory makes it easy and simple to clean most of the mud off his shoes and pull his boots off without him needing to lean down and touch the dirty boots.

Herb Wheel Planter

Whatever size garden he has and whether he has grass or just a small patio, he can still make the most out of his gardening hobby with this small herb planter. The 6 separate sections interlock to create this raised herb wheel, ideal for people who find it difficult to get down to look after their ground level plants. Assembly is quick and easy, taking only a couple of minutes, and can be taken apart and easily moved to different areas of his patio or garden if needed.

Trellis

Is your dad looking to take his garden to a new level? Trellis panels provide essential support to climbing plants, giving your dad the chance to elevate his garden. Available in a large range of shapes, sizes, and designs, our favourite trellis panel is the Hidcote Fan Lattice due to its charming shape, lattice design, secure frame, and FSC wood. However, if you have a bigger budget (and your dad has a bigger garden), a trellis arch like the Forest Garden arch will allow your dad to grow his climbing plants over the arch, creating a beautiful garden feature.

Gift Set

If your dad has been talking about getting some new gardening gear or if he’s new to gardening altogether but eager to get started, a gardening gift set might be the perfect gift for him. Ranging from smaller cheaper sets to larger more expensive sets, there is something to match everyone's budget and every dads need.

Our top pick for a gift set on a budget is the Briers Pruning Set which includes gloves and secateurs to get your dads gardening journey off to a great start. However, if you have a larger budget, we recommend the Gardeners Gifts Allotment set. Including a range of essential gardening items like gloves, a tool bag, a trowel and fork and more. This set will make any gardener's Father’s Day a special one.

Tool Belt

Is your dad one of those people who forgets where they’ve put something or are always forgetting to get something out of the shed that they need? Make life easier for him by keeping his tools organised and easily accessible with a tool belt. This garden accessory comes with a range of pockets to fit different garden essentials and clips around the waist with an adjustable strap.

Knee Stool

Last but not least, bring comfort to your dads gardening experience with a knee stool. Not only does this accessory protect your dads knees by providing him with some padded comfort, it also keeps your dads knees off the cold, hard, wet ground. The useful handles on either side of the stool can help your dad with getting down and back up from kneeling. Another benefit of this knee stool is that it can also be used the other way up to create a stool to sit on if he’s working on raised beds.
