Cheap and cheerful Secret Santa
If you are still looking for gifts, and your giftee is a gardener, then how about a little watering helper? Globe watering kits are plastic or glass globes on a stem that you fill up with water and then upend into a flower pot to ensure a regular water source for up to a couple of weeks.
Houseplant gloves
These are the easiest way to clean houseplant leaves of dust, just put them on and gently wipe your hands over the houseplant to remove the dust or debris. Washable so you can use them again and again.
Here in Switzerland, the excellent bloomling.ch have houseplant gloves for 7.95 from Botanopia, and they have a gift bundle with a pair of gardeners snips, those little one-piece secateurs, also from Botanopia, for a very reasonable 13.30 CHF.
Seed kits
Why not put together a present of some packs of seeds from one of the Swiss seed producers like Samen Mauser, Wyss or Zollinger Bio? Add a metal tin to keep them in and you've got a great gift under 20CHF!
