My mum likes gardening. She also enjoys Boardgaming. So Ill try to combine the two and find her games, where she could use her "green thumb" in games

The first one we had (when I was a kid). Still one of the best simulations of a garden year, but unfortuntly just a simple roll & move.

This is one she really enjoys - very nice graphics and some mechanism provide flavour. But its very light and the scoring at the end is quite mathematical..

This is a bidding-game which my mom doesnt like. Furthermore the garden is already finished on the board, so its not really gardening, but an abstract mechanism.
Good game though.

Now for the games I havent bought and/or played.
This is a classic kids game, and I doubt its what "gardeners" are looking for...

This one would interest me: It certainly looks good. But I havent herad much of it yet, apart that there seems to be some rules problems.
Is it a true garden game or an abstract?

My mother-in-law actually got this last year...I remember looking through the rules and components, and seeing absolutely nothing to justify even giving the game a try.

This is more of a simulation than a game. I think I could grow potatoes faster than playing the game and I know it would be more fun.

This is not realy a "garden" -game, just a memory-game with a garden-theme (or a "weeding game" to be more precise)

Tile laying goodness where you have to remove bugs (snails/slugs?) via bullfrogs and 'grow' more (straw) berries than bugs/snails. Suprisingly good for what it is and teaches 'essential' life game skills used in Carcassonne and others.

I should drag this game out and play it with my husband. Maybe it will inspire hope that warmer weather is 'really' just around the corner.

I bought this for my friend's daughter. A nice kids game, but nothing to do with gardens though. It's a 20-questions type deduction game.
