Father's Day Gifts

Dads deserve more than a tasteless card and a bag of charcoal briquettes. 

That's what my dad told me last year, anyway.*

This June, why not choose a plant gift for the father figure in your life and give him the excuse to spend some quality time in the garden? A lovely tree, shrub or plant will delight your old man and will serve as a constant reminder of who his favourite child is. 

Take a look at our top plant picks, as chosen by dads.
