You could possibly change the color of the leaf blowing engine for each team. A red engine for red, a blue engine for blue just like the flare gun does. Although you probably already were planning on that lol. I'd love to see this in game!
The stick figure seems sort of out of sync with the TF2 style, but I like the idea. Maybe have the fire warning label and the Pyro scrawled a poorly drawn sad faced stick figure on it? Or just the sad face with Xs for eyes, lol.

How about adapting the headshot kill icon? Remove the bullet path/brain chunks, add fire, you're all set.
It looks a bit odd that there's no obvious ignition source but I don't think sticking a pilot light on the front is the answer, would it be possible to add a flickering glow coming out of the fan part?
It looks awesome! Specially the detail with it being slightly burnt. Maybe make it more burnt ?
However, I'm still not a big fan of it being so feminine. So far there is no hats which refer to Pyros gender in-game, so it could make Valve think twice about picking this pack, since they probably got in mind what Pyros gender actually are(Likely male, because of his curreny bodyshap and his voice, imo).
The flower is simply too girly, maybe you should try with something more genderless?
Just my 2 cents.
EDIT: Maybe try without the flower, or with a flower which looks much more edgy and brutal? Maybe even a burnt flower ?
I understand both arguments with the girly flower. I like it because it's kinda funny, and does go with the Pyro's mysterious purse, but I wouldn't be against having something else. Just looks very boring without it.
Trying to make a TF2 style texture whilst making it look like straw will be pretty hard :S I'm not sure exactly how to tackle it

If you like it, stick to it.
I do agree it will look plain without, but maybe you could go with a more brutal looking kind of flower?
Just do very faint circle lines around it so it doesn't stand out yet you can see the texture. Isn't one of the snipers hats made of straw? could use that for reference.
You could somehow have there be actual flames on the hat. Like the pilot light flame on the flamethrower...dono if that would work out for resources though.
Wow this is an amazing idea. Truly fantastic. For the grief-blower, are you going to make its airblast longer and less spread-out as well? Also, why not make a fourth item if you finish the first 3 in time. Like maybe a shotgun that shoots out spinning razor blades (used to like cut hedges and stuff.)
Razor shotgun +50% damage
single shot (rather than a burst)
Or how about a shotgun that has a trowel at the end (similar to a bayonet).
Death Dibber Right click stabs with trowel -20% bullet damage
Although I suppose that If you wanted to hit someone up close you could just use the head trimmer....
I like the Gardeing hat though, the only thing I want you to do with it is to improve the flower a bit to be slightly more interesting. It doesn't look like a real flower at the moment, too plain.
I would pay to have the trowel accident as a hat. It looks so awesome. But I agree that it's best to contribute or upload it later and leave the flower power for this pack.

BUT
Got it in-game, works like a charm. Only issue is getting textures to work in-game, which I SHOULD be able to do, but always hit some kind of wall.
this isnt textured or anything, just a quick paintover for a general idea. SOON i should have some actual worthwhile updates. I hope
Nonsense aside, this is shaping up quite nicely, keep up the good work!
And minor update time, too. Here's a textured scythe!
Its called the "Mannjo"
Here's stage 1 of textures!
Please, feedback! I don't wanna mess this up!

GOOD IDEA!
hey, have you knoticed at the end of the tank, theres alot of poly, you could reduce the poly on that section.
the sad part is this is still gender neutral...

I think the hat goes nice with Pyro's purse.
The Pyro could make this pose while wearing it:
Maybe make the hat texture look more like straw.

How's a horrible gardening accident sound?
Trowel to the head, with his suit ripped open a bit and some juicy brains exposed?
I changed up the flower, gave it a pyro's touch
