They're very well off and have everything they need and want, and they don't like anything that's not practical. They get dozens of goodie baskets from business associates, and personalized trinkets just aren't their thing. They don't shop or go out to eat (or go out at all), and neither use the internet, so gift cards are no good. They don't watch movies or listen to music. They're just impossible! They just bought a new vacation home in AZ, so I was thinking something for that may-be? They have all the basics already, though. Mom likes gardening, but she can't anymore (she's got MS), and she has no other interests... Dad likes fishing and golf, but he likes to buy all of his own stuff. He's also a history guy but he doesn't need any more books -- he already knows it all. I am so screwed. Please help. ANY suggestions are welcome.

Some exotic flowering cactus for their home or desert lawn might be nice. Sun hat? An orange tree? A book of Georgia O'Keefe paintings? My dad has retired to the south to "golf his life away". I asked him who his favorite golfer was, then went and bought his putter! He was *wowed*, and this is a guy who doesn't get excited.
