Miniature Blood Orange Tree
$64.95

This VeriFlora certified miniature blood orange tree holds a sweet surprise. Not only is it space-efficient, it also grows full size fruit! A juicy blood orange is sweeter than the navel oranges you are used to, and the flesh of these scintillating citrus fruits has a unique red hue. They are most delicious when eaten freshly picked from the tree, and they make a cool and refreshing treat during the sweltering summer months. Your dad will love the heady fragrance as he peels one open and delight in the refreshing citrus taste when he takes his first bite.

The best thing about having one of these two-foot orange trees at home is that they can grow juicy full-size blood oranges just like the ones grown in a large orchard, all the while taking up a very small footprint in your dad's house or on his patio.

Flowering in the spring, holding fruit all summer, and providing a juicy autumn to winter harvest, your dad doesn't even have to have a green thumb to successfully grow this dimunitive citrus tree.

Shipped to dad in a naturally beautiful six-inch terra cotta pot with a tray, dad will enjoy his Miniature Blood Orange Tree all year round while contributing to a healthy, natural lifestyle. Complete care instructions included.

Wine Grape Bonsai
$64.95, OrganicStyle.com

VeriFlora certified, these wine grape bonsai plants are 10-year old wine grape specimens, that literally bring an authentic piece of California's Wine Country heritage to a deserving father's home.

This bonsai is grown best on a patio that is protected from inclement weather, but it will do equally well in any shaded spot. The Wine Grape Bonsai is planted in a natural ceramic bonsai container and grows to approximately 10 inches tall.

100 percent Tree Free Journal
$22.95

If your dad journals his daily thoughts or enjoys sketching art or designs in a notebook, give him an eco-friendly journal he can feel good about using.

This journal is made from 100 percent recycled cotton rags and remnants. The "wood" look on the front is made by rolling long sheets of the cotton paper and then slicing them into tree like medallions.

Inside the journal your father will find acid-free, cotton paper that is gorgeous, heavy and finely textured. This journal will beg your dad to set his imagination loose on its pages.

The Tree Free Journal comes with covers in either moss or twig colors and the paper inside is white.
