 Surprise
Mom with a gift of gardening joy!
Time has a unique way of reminding us of
those who are most important to us, and
how seldom we take the time to tell them.
Mother's Day is coming up, and a nice way
to express your love and appreciation is
with a gift from the Fred Meyer Garden Center.
For the green thumb mom, you'll find everything
from the right tools to help her grow the
most beautiful garden on the block to informative
books on plants and growing techniques.
A lovely choice is a premium hanging
basket filled with flowers! As
Mom enjoys it throughout the growing season,
she'll thank you again and again! You’ll
find many choices at Fred Meyer, including
Fuchsias, Geraniums
and Impatiens. Filled with
flowering annuals and perennials,  it
will offer beauty all summer long. And Mom
can change the look by replanting it whenever
she wants.
If you have a little time, another
good gift idea is a do-it-yourself container
garden. Simply pick a planter or
window box and get creative:
- Start with a taller plant as a focal
point in the center, then surround it
with lots of medium size flowering plants
like geraniums.
- Finish the look with ivy, lotus vine
or other trailing accents that cascade
over the sides.
You’ll find dozens of other
great gifts ideas for your mom at the Fred
Meyer Garden Center. And many are
easy to pick up at the last minute, including:
- Cut Flowers Great
fresh bouquets in a range of price points,
beautiful roses in a variety of colors
ready to purchase by the dozen or singles,
and long-lasting carnations in multi-color
hues or single-color bunches.
- Indoor Blooming Plants
- Orchids potted
exotic orchids in clay pots featuring
phaleonopsis, plus numerous other
exotic varieties. Blooms last 3-4
weeks with proper care.
- Hydrangeas Potted
large headed hydrangeas in shades
of blue, and pink. 6” pots in
decorative wrap make a great gift.
Blooms last 2-3 weeks with the proper
conditions.
- Mini Roses In lovely
pastel colors potted in 6” decorative
pots. These last several weeks in
the house and then can be planted
in the yard as an extra bonus.
- New gardening tools
for the mom who’s a green thumb.
Or use a nice new basket and fill
it with useful things like gloves,
a trowel, flower seeds, a gardening book…
whatever she likes or needs.
- Things to attract fine feathered friends
to her garden, like bird feeders
or a birdbath.
- Wind chimes…
a wonderful sound on those summer nights
featuring a gentle breeze!
- An indoor fountain,
bringing one of nature’s most relaxing
sounds indoors to a favorite sitting area.
And that’s just the start of what
you’ll find. Hurry in to find the
perfect way to say, "I love you, Mom!"
