Stuck for a secret Santa idea at work. Anyone got any suggestions for a £10 present for a keen gardener please?

This book is a bargain at a fiver and well reviewed.
RHS book
Farmer Gracy has a sale on. It’s a bit late for bulbs but the warm weather may mean they are confused enough to be ready when the cold hits in Spring. Postage takes at least a week.
Waitrose have gloves and bulbs for less than £5 in the sale
Garden lights are cheap/large/ useful

Spears and Jackson folding gardening knife, currently £10.49 on Amazon. A very handy little tool.

if you have a wilko near you then you can get packets of seeds (the wilko brand ones) for 5p a packet, they were recently reduced and appears to be all stores. I checked at the till with a couple of packets first and then got a selection ready for a Mother’s Day gardening gift.
You could then add a few other bits from the gardening section - maybe a few wooden handled hand tools or even a few of the smaller ceramic plant pots could work.

Our local Wilkinson's had lots of packets of spring bulbs half price - narcissus, hyacinths, dwarf irises, crocus - could buy a selection or variation on a theme

This is the most useful tool I have purchased recently....Here in the USA we call it a Hori-Hori Knife. Looks like it's out of stock on Amazon in the UK, but is called a Planting and Weeding Knife

Blood and bone to add to soil. It sounds gruesome but gardeners love it and it boosts their crop. My Mum used to love it.

Seedbombs are great.
Bought some from my local garden centre attractively packaged in a small,re-usable hessian sack.
