5 Essential Xmas Presents for the Greenhouse Gardener
If you’re searching for a holiday or special occasion gift that truly leaves a legacy, a custom-built, handcrafted greenhouse from Lapp Structures is the gift that keeps on giving season after season.
Unlike most gifts that are enjoyed once, a premium structure offers years of inspiration, growth, and beauty right in the garden.
The timing is always perfect. By purchasing a greenhouse now, your custom structure can be designed, handcrafted, and delivered just as the winter frost is lifting, making it ready for the first planting days of early spring. It’s a gift of beauty, creativity, and growth, designed to last for generations.
The Perfect Presentation, the Greenhouse Gift Box
While your full-size, custom-built greenhouse may not arrive before the big day, we’ve created something special to make the wait even more meaningful.
For a limited time, when you place an order for one of our signature styles—the A-Frame, Garden, or Atrium Greenhouse—be sure to mention our Greenhouse Gift Box to your sales representative. This limited-time holiday offer is valid now through December 12th!
We will craft a personalized 3D-printed model of your exact greenhouse design, complete with miniature details and wrapped with a bow.
This one-of-a-kind keepsake symbolizes what’s to come and gives you a magnificent physical present to wrap and present on the day.
5 Gift Ideas for the Greenhouse Gardener in Your Life
Even the best-equipped gardeners can always use an upgrade or a specialized tool. Whether they are waiting on their custom Lapp Structures greenhouse or already have one, these are the available gifts every greenhouse enthusiast would love.
1. Seed Starter Kit
For the gardener eager to kick off the growing season early, a professional propagation setup is an indispensable gift idea.
- Seed Trays & Inserts: High-quality, reusable trays for starting hundreds of seeds.
- Heat Mats: A thermostatically controlled heat mat system is crucial for optimal germination, especially for tropical or early-season plants. Look for models with a digital controller for precise temperature control.
2. The Perfect Potting Station
A beautiful, functional potting bench provides a dedicated workspace for mixing soil, transplanting, and organizing small tools.
Look for benches made from durable materials like cedar or cypress.
Having a dedicated station saves their back and keeps the greenhouse workspace clean and tidy.
3. Shine On with Supplemental Light
Short winter days or cloudy stretches can limit growth.
A quality grow light system ensures plants get the spectrum they need, regardless of the weather outside.
Consider full-spectrum LED lights that are energy-efficient and adjustable.
These lights are essential for overwintering tender plants and starting strong, compact seedlings.
4. Smart & Solar Solutions
Hobby greenhouse structures often require automation to maintain perfect conditions.
- Solar-Powered Vent Openers: These automatic arms open and close vents based on temperature, requiring no electricity.
- Solar-Powered Irrigation Timers: A simple drip system powered by the sun can ensure consistent watering, saving time and water.
5. Heirloom-Quality Hand Tools
Every gardener needs reliable tools. Upgrade their kit with beautiful, durable items that are built to last.
- Watering Can: A stylish, long-spouted watering can made from copper or galvanized steel is a classic greenhouse gift. The long spout makes it easy to water hanging baskets and plants tucked away on shelves.
- Stainless Steel Tools: Invest in a set of stainless steel hand trowels, cultivators, and pruners. Stainless steel is rust-resistant and durable, making it a treasured addition to any serious gardener’s toolkit.
