ABOUT FACE
It’s easy to make an impression in the garden with Designer Stone’s Expressions Urn. The two-faced cast-stone planter with Old Stone patina stands 13 inches high and is suitable for a 6-inch plant. Sealed to withstand the elements and drilled for drainage, it comes in a choice of four expressions and can be ordered online at dsgardenshop.com.



THIRST QUENCHER
Desert gardeners know the importance of staying hydrated, and Wild and Wolf Ltd.’s lightweight aluminum water holder with clip makes it easy to keep liquids handy. The company collaborated with London’s Victoria and Albert Museum on three container designs based on wallpaper prints by famed designer William Morris. Available in Anemone, Cray (pictured) and Daisy, they can be found at Fleure•ish, (602) 944-4854.


SIMPLY SOOTHING
Overworked hands can get a break with Katie Brown’s Soothing Hand Soak bags. The “teabags” are filled with therapeutic Dead Sea salts and aromatic herbs that, when wet, help soften skin and relax muscles. Simply place the pouches in warm water and soak your tired hands. The tin of eight bags is available at shopkatiebrown.com.



GARDEN TIP
Periodically flush out debris that may have accumulated in your irrigation system by twisting off a few sprinkler heads and running the water for a couple of minutes.
