Made to order · Standard Free UK delivery included, 4 to 9 working days · Christmas: order by Thu 10 Dec

Planning a Christmas gift? Order by Thu 10 Dec with standard delivery for it to arrive by 23 December. Allow time to choose a portrait preview before you order.

Planning a Christmas gift

Every print is made after you order. Making and delivery together take 4 to 9 working days door to door, with weekends and bank holidays not counted. The Christmas order-by day on this page is worked out from that window, for arrival by 23 December.

A portrait in an art style needs time to choose and approve a preview before you place the order. Start with the photograph and check the result before deciding what to print.

Delivery is included in the price and goes to UK addresses only. The full terms are on delivery and returns.

Their garden, framed for Christmas

December is the quiet end of the growing year, so a picture of the garden in full growth means more. A print of their own garden starts from one photo and goes two ways.

Print the photo as it is when the exact beds, path or shed matter. Turn it into art in Garden colour, Soft watercolour or Bold shapes, then compare the watermarked preview with the photo. The art style can change plants and structures.

Poster, framed poster, canvas, framed canvas, metal and wood are all available, plus a mug and a water bottle.

Bare borders and empty bean poles: the garden a December gift arrives in.

Getting the photo without giving the game away

You can't ask for the file, so go looking. A picture you took yourself on a summer visit is yours to use. If a partner, son or daughter has a good one, ask them for the original file and their permission. The photographer's permission is what counts, not the garden owner's.

Ask for the original, not a screenshot or a download from social media. Those can rule out the larger sizes, and the upload tool shows which sizes a file can carry before you pay. A December photo of bare beds is rarely the one to print, so look back through the summer.

No usable photo? Choose one of our garden artworks below instead. See our gardening gifts guide for how to choose.

Garden artworks

  • One More Dahlia. Coral and pink dahlias pushed against dark plum foliage, with yellow flowers breaking in at the edges. For the grower who lifts their tubers in autumn and talks about them all winter.
  • Sweet Peas, Still Climbing. Pink, ivory and deep purple flowers climbing through a pale blush ground on chartreuse leaves. Lighter than the dahlias, and easier in a small room.
  • The Last Hour on the Plot. Cabbage leaves, bean poles and a small plum-coloured shed, lit by low evening sun. Not a named plot, so any plot holder can claim it.
  • Behind the Glass. Tomato-red fruit and terracotta pots in pale greenhouse light over a dark workbench. For whoever is always in the greenhouse pinching out side shoots.

Most of our artworks also come on an 11oz mug.

Secret Santa gifts for gardeners

Not every present needs a wall. Most of our artworks come on an 11oz mug and a 500ml water bottle, and the smallest poster is A4. A mug for the shed is also a fair thank-you to someone who gardens for you.

For a Secret Santa, choose a subject they love and check the live price for the format below. These are the current starting prices for that artwork in each format.

Stocking fillers for gardeners

A water bottle can go out to the plot with them. For smaller extras, seeds for spring or a packet of plant labels are useful too; buy those from a garden supplier.

If a plant is on the list, pass on the care guide with it: poinsettia care, amaryllis care or Christmas cactus care. There is also a guide to making a Christmas wreath, and a card line from flower meanings if holly, ivy or rosemary suits the person. The journal's garden birds guide has a section on the robin.

Christmas gifts for her and for him

Ask what they grow. Gardening gifts for her and gardening gifts for men each go through the ideas in detail. An allotment holder might prefer allotment gifts.

The full list of 40 gardening gift ideas has more.

Formats

The artworks come as posters in A4, A3, A2 and 50x70 cm. Framed posters run from 30x40 to 50x70 cm, in black, white, natural or brown. Canvas runs from 30x40 to 60x80 cm. Framed canvas runs up to 51x71 cm, in black, white, natural or brown. Metal prints run from 30x40 to 50x70 cm. Wood prints come in 30x40 and 40x50 cm. A print from your own photo adds a 70x100 cm poster. The size guide helps with the wall.

Questions before you choose

What to get someone who loves gardening for Christmas?

Start with what they grow. A print of their own garden, made from a summer photo, suits anyone who loves the place itself. For a plant lover, match a gift to the plant: an artwork of dahlias, sweet peas, allotment vegetables or a greenhouse.

What is a good gift for someone who loves gardening?

Something they'll use and something that reminds them of their patch. A bird feeder, bulbs for spring and a good pair of gloves are small ideas. A print of their own garden is the bigger one.

What is a really good Secret Santa gift for a gardener?

A mug or water bottle with a garden artwork on it. It's a small gift with a subject they can pick: dahlias, sweet peas, an allotment or a greenhouse.

What if I can't get their garden photo?

Choose one of our artworks instead. They are garden scenes, not named places, so they suit any grower who loves the subject.

When is the last order date for Christmas?

Order by the Christmas date in the note on our home page and Christmas gifts page. We work it out from the making and delivery times, for arrival by 23 December with standard delivery. Allow time to choose a preview for a portrait, and check the product page before ordering.
