Whay not buy her a small tree - that way, she can plant it in her garden & it will last forever!
Other than that, you can buy some really funky Pink garden tools these days!!

Depending on the age of your mum - she might appreciate one of those little stool things that she can kneel on while weeding etc, and it has a little arm on each side that you can use to help you get back up on your feet again. The stools are made out of plastic so are very lightweight, but also very sturdy.
I know that's a rubbish description but I can't remember what the thing is called. I got one for my mother a few years ago, she loves it, and uses it all the time. When she's not kneeling on it, she turns it upside down so that it becomes a little seat.

A voucher was a good suggestion, as was a tree - you can sometimes get them quite cheaply.
Is there a flower that has a similar name to her's? Search on the internet.
Or I've seen some really nice gardening tools that have flowers decorated on them, they're in most gift shops at the moment and are within your price range.

Well I love to garden and I have to say I would love a new gardening bag with the tools.... I have had mine for a few years and they get old and gross..... Not sure what kind of tools your mom has but a new tool bag with tools and maybe a new pair of garden gloves.... that stuff gets so old and nasty and its not something you think about going out and getting.... Good Luck Tell your mum Happy Birthday!

Plants, gardening tools, garden stones, lawn figures, there all kind of things out there. Go to your local gardening store and look around. Some of the ornamental things can be bought at the dollar stores, Big Lots, etc.

Make your outdoor landscaping beautiful all day long by installing low voltage lighting. Low voltage lighting is sold in many styles and stress important parts of your home or garden at night. Outdoor lighting will also increase the safety of walking on your walkways after sunset. Low voltage landscape lights are simple and safe to install even if you don’t know anything about electricity.

For my friends birthday who is also a very keen gardener I bought her a gift from Crabtree & Evelyn it was a painted flower pot with a pair of gardening gloves and some intense hand cream for after gardening cost 16gbp and she loved it.
Hope your mum has a lovely birthday and no matter what you get her she will love it

Many Fragrant ideas:
1) Buy her a Jasmine (Jasminum Auriculatum) flowering plant
2) Gardenia
3) Delphinium (Language of Flower meaning - Heavnely qualities)
or you can buy some garden tools - these are most important - perhaps ask mum what sort of tools she doesnt have.

National Garden Centre vouchers. Any garden nursery sells them, but make sure there the ones you can use nationwide. Then you can help Mum choose her plants!

A nice Hanging Basket of her favorite flowers or Ivys. Wind Chimes are also perfect accent to any garden.
Happy Birthday to your Mum!!
and Good Luck!
