From stylish gloves to patterned instruments, there’s a gardening accessory for everybody.

When it comes to gardening, there are those that settle for the basic gardening tools they’ve already got, and there are those for whom it just helps to have something a little bit more special, and for those who reside in the latter camp, it might pay heed to spare a thought for the green gifts you could give them.

For there’s no need to assume that everything relating to gardening need be frumpy and green, as there’s a wealth of bright and playful gardening accessories – from patterned tools to colourful watering cans – and bespoke gifts that will make the green-fingered loved one in your life’s time outdoors just that little bit more enjoyable. Here are a few of our favourites.
