Present for dad

Looking for a bit of advice please. It's my dads birthday this week (65) and I've asked my mum for ideas and she's said 'anything for the garden' they've recently completely transformed their garden in that they've had artificial glass laid and seem to be enjoying the pottering with plants and ornaments now. He likes it fairly low maintenance (ie not having to cut the grass!) he's been out and bought a load of new plants this week as he has a new found love of growing strawberries with my DD(4) which is lovely but I'm looking for something outside of a new pair of gardening gloves, something a bit more unique. We bought him a herb planter at Christmas as he really liked ours and my brother has bought him a bug hive that I'd seen in Costco (shouldn't have given that idea away!) so any recommendations would be appreciated. Budget of around £60 but I don't mind more or less for the right thing. Thank you!
