Don't forget to include the booklets and helpful manuals on the best gardening tips and secrets of the experts.

Is she a coffee or tea lover? Then gourmet coffee gift baskets or delicate tea baskets are good presents to give. You can put in a container of the gourmet coffee blends in itself or with the prettily packed bags of tea. Place it inside a wicker basket lined in lace and checkered cloth. Then order a personalized mug with your mom's name or the classic ?Best Mom? written across it. If she is not blown away with the lovely gift basket, she will definitely be won over with the mug.

Or if gourmet coffee gift baskets do not do it for her, there are other ideas you can use to make her smile. You want a guaranteed present that will be a hit to her? Then draw from her inexhaustible well of tenderheartedness that most mothers have. Take some of your favorite pictures of her and the both of you and laminate these together with a funny little story behind each photo. Attach little trinkets of special significance to her and fasten it to the basket.
