Jessie's Mother's Day Gift Guide

Mother’s Day is just around the corner, and if your mom loves the smell of soil, beams at blooming perennials, or can name every herb in her kitchen garden — then skip the candles and cozy slippers and head straight to the greenhouse. We’ve gathered a collection of thoughtful, beautiful, and useful gifts that speak to the nurturing, life-giving spirit of motherhood.

Whether she’s a master gardener or just discovering the joy of tending plants, there’s something here for her forever greenhouse hom!


Blooming Hanging Baskets

Instant impact. These are ready to wow MOM the moment you hand them over. Overflowing with color and texture, hanging baskets are perfect for porches and patios. Choose her favorite flowers or go bold with mixed annuals that keep blooming all season long.


Tonkadale's Signature Combination Pots

Pick up a pre-made combo planter or let us help you create a custom planter tailored to your mom’s taste and space. Whether she loves a splash of tropical color or a medley of herbs right outside the kitchen door, we have combo pots ready with any color combination you fancy! Available in store only.


Perennial Favorites

Give her a gift that comes back year after year — just like her love. Perennials such as peonies, lavender, coneflowers, and daylilies are both beautiful and symbolic... “Just like you, they grows stronger every year.”

SOBBING. We needed that.


Cute Kitchen Staples

You really can't go wrong with a Geometry Kitchen Tea Towel.... or two! These towels are amazing because they actually pick up liquid dry much faster, and they don't wrinkle. So many prints and colors to choose from!


Gardening Tools that Last

Upgrade her toolset with high-quality pruners, a comfy kneeling pad, or a beautiful garden tote. Bonus points if you include a card that says: “Thanks for being the one that makes things grow.” Our DeWitt garden tool collection has just about every tool you could possibly need. The Hori-Hori knife is a fan favorite!


Greenhouse Gift Cards

Not sure what she’d love most? A gift card lets her wander the greenhouse aisles at her leisure — soaking up ideas, smells, and sunlight. Pair it with a potted plant for the perfect personal touch.


Maybe a vistit to the greenhouse is all mom needs. Plant something together — a tree, a rosebush, or a raised-bed vegetable garden. Shared time in the garden is a memory that lasts long after the flowers fade.

See you at Tonkadale!


Always approachable and happy to help!
