As soon as temps start to rise, your first impulse might be to immediately fill your garden with new plants to lift it out of its sad, winterized state.
While plants are obviously an essential part of a thriving garden, there are a few other elements that can help bring it to life that don't require buying out your nearest nursery. By adding a few upgraded gardening essentials from Walmart (your full solution for all things gardening, since you can also get loads of live plants there if you need those too — FYI) you can take your garden from winter to wow with just one trip to the store. Here's what to add to your shopping list.

1. Smart Solar Modern Zen Solar-on-Demand Fountain, $145.98
Add a modern touch to any garden (or entryway or patio for that matter) with a solar-powered fountain with a backup battery so it'll keep bubbling even on cloudy days. Plus, who doesn't love the sound of trickling water?
Create dimension with hanging planters so there will be greenery everywhere you look. Loop the natural jute ropes over tree limbs or an exterior hook and you'll instantly have a floating garden.
3. Gardman Watering Can, $37.99
Give your hard-to-reach plants a sip of water with a copper-accented watering can that you'll want to leave out as a rustic lawn ornament (and you can, because the galvanized metal is rust resistant).
Line garden edges or the path up to it with solar-powered lanterns that will let you enjoy your green-thumb efforts even after the sun starts to go down.
5. Large Whiskey Wooden Barrel Planter, $69.72
Give your garden a farmhouse feel with a few whiskey barrel planters interspersed between the seedlings planted in the ground.
6. 8 Piece Garden Tote and Tool Set by Pure Garden, $17.27
Every gardener needs the right tools to get their hands dirty with, and by storing them in this durable canvas tote, you'll have them at the ready for whenever the planting mood strikes.
Pro tip: Don't let a messy, tangled hose ruin the vibe — just keep it neatly tucked away in this basket-weave-style hose hider that doubles as a seat for you to admire your handiwork.
8. Perky-Pet 2 lb Copper Panorama Bird Feeder, $18.99
Add a finishing touch with a bird feeder that will invite wildlife to come enjoy the outdoor sanctuary you've created (all the better for the ambience).
