Do you have a wife or girlfriend? Do the two of you live together? Do you want to make her feel special and show you care but want to save money? If so, planting a garden is an option to consider.
Do not do anything by yourself at first, get a gardening book so you will know how to do things properly and what things to expect. They do not typically cost much and small handbooks and mini guides are even cheaper. They are available at most home, tool, grocery, outdoor, and super stores.
Even if she wants a rhodium plated ring, you can please her with the surprise of flowers. They will not be the run of the mill store bought kind, but instead special ones in all different colors and types. Does she have a favorite flower? If so, plant lots of them so when she steps outside and sees them, she will feel special.
The most popular choice are roses. It will be easy to find seeds for a particular color that she likes most. There is traditional red, but there are also white, pink, yellow, and purple varieties on the market. They also grow in different sizes, such as large rose bushes and smaller ones.
Look at each location to find the best place to start planting all the things. Remember to find the areas that do and do not get sunlight. Areas that get a lot of light produce more, while shaded areas do not. Plants use the sun as a food source so location is very important and needs to be thought about.
If she loves designer shoes, but they are out of your price range, get her a pair of leather brown boots that do not cost a lot. These are not for style purposes, they are for durability. Get them and let her know the reason is because now she can wear them outside with you so gardening can be an activity to do together. This way you spend quality time together.
So if you are on a budget but want to make your special someone feel pleasantly surprised, plant a garden. It does not cost much to do this depending on what you want to plant. In fact, just grass and flowers will probably do just fine.
