Best Choice Products Raised Garden Bed

A raised garden bed can be an excellent start to a fresh garden, especially for families looking to cultivate their plants as a group activity. At 30 inches tall, this durable Chinese fir wood is naturally warp- and weather-resistant and can support up to 150 pounds. Plus, features like optimized draining and a long bed ensure your plants will be thrilled in their new home. It comes with a liner, too. Shoppers are using it on their decks, as an addition to their existing gardens in their backyards, and some even inside their condos to grow their own fresh produce.

Mademax Solar Bird Bath Fountain Pump

Waking up to birdsong never fails to brighten our days, and this solar-powered bird bath pump sure does too. Although this fountain accessory doesn’t store energy (so will only be active when receiving direct sunlight), it takes only seconds to start up once it’s placed in a garden or yard. And depending on how strong the sunlight is, the fountain can spray water up to roughly 28 inches high. You’ll also get six different nozzles that will emit a different spray of designs and heights.   

Melphoe Two-Pack Self-Watering Hanging Planters

Hanging plants on a porch, patio, or even indoors can immediately imbue a space with liveliness and vibrance, and these elegant plastic planters sure add to the ambiance. The self-watering design ensures that it’ll feed your plants for up to two weeks. (Vacation season, anyone?) It keeps your plants watered via a cotton rope that hangs out of the bottom portion of the inner pot. With the translucent design of the planter, you can also easily see the water line to determine when your mint, petunias, or pothos might need a refill. Though we love the emerald shades, the two-pack hanging planters also come in gray and transparent options. 

Bamworld Plant Stand Indoor Outdoor Corner Shelf

We know the feeling: You were just so thrilled to see that succulent and aloe plant at the farmer’s market, and now there’s nowhere to put your newest garden resident. Consider stacking and layering your greenery with this 4-tier plant rack for inside or outside. With mixed levels of heights and widths, it’ll immediately add interest to an empty corner of your hope, or you can add it to your front porch to show off your growing flora to the neighborhood. 

Amazon Basics Collapsible Folding Outdoor Utility Wagon

If you have trouble justifying spending your hard-earned green on your green thumb, go for a multifunctional item instead. This handy utility wagon from Amazon can help you out in many circumstances: transporting items for a picnic, shuttling garden items of course, or even relieving a pet who’s flopped down midway through an intended walk. It can hold up to 265 pounds, but it folds flat so takes up minimal space and is easy to carry. Apartment dwellers especially love it for their groceries, with one shopper saying “this thing changed my life.” 

Dahey 3-Piece Metal Rail Hanging Flower Pots

Style some florals on your porch for an event, or relish homegrown herbs in your windowsill by utilizing some convenient hanging flower pots in your space. The attractive, sturdy receptacles are crafted of iron and also include two drainage holes to maximize growing capacity. The pots are available in three- and five-piece sets and come in both black and white colors—perfect neutrals to liven up any space. Plus, the hangers are removable, so you can also use them to decorate other areas of the home. 

Fiskars Bypass Pruning Shears

Every gardener needs a stellar pair of shears, so it’s no surprise that these rust-proof clippers land on so many wishlists. From cutting stems to trimming herbs, these scissors include a self-cleaning sap groove, low-friction blade coating, and non-slip grip handle for longevity. It’s a shopper favorite that has over 34,100 five-star ratings. Many share how their shears have lasted them years, and that “the precision-ground steel blade is exceptionally sharp and cuts through plants effortlessly, allowing for clean and precise cuts every time.”

Costa Rica Money Tree Live Plant

Of course, every grower has to start somewhere. This Costa Rica Money Tree live plant makes an excellent introduction to plant care, whether for you, a friend, relative, or even a corporate gift. It’ll arrive at your doorstep standing at up to 4 feet tall and, yes, the planter is included. If you keep it indoors, it has the potential to grow up to 10 feet, but outdoors—let’s say for your backyard—it could grow even taller. 

Gootop Outdoor Electric Bug Zapper

We may appreciate days outdoors toiling away in our yards, but admittedly, we could do without the mosquito bites. Act quickly while this highly-rated electric bug zapper is 33 percent off. It can protect up to 0.5 acres of an area and features a metal loop at the top for you to hang it. Otherwise, you can keep it on a side table at night to attract and immediately get rid of pesky bugs. Once you feel it’s done it’s job, just take out the removable bottom tray and give it a quick clean with the included brush.

Grampa’s Weeder Stand Up Puller Tool

With over 37,500 five-star ratings, this Grampa’s weeder is the No.1 most wished for garden item on Amazon. Its 4-foot-long bamboo handle and four-claw steel head efficiently yank pesky weeds while seriously saving your knees and joints from hours of hunching over. Shoppers rave about the simple yet efficient design, going as far as to say “the ease of use is unparalleled.” One shopper spent 10 years just trimming their weeds because they simply could not keep up with the maintenance, but “in seconds, these deeply infested rooted weeds were gone! It’s almost like magic!”
