How did we choose these gifts?

We hand-picked these gifts from the range we stock. Each one was chosen for who it suits and what it does, so every gift has a clear reason to be in a stocking. Some suit gardeners directly, like the herb garden candle and tote bag, while others suit mums, dads, friends or Secret Santa swaps.

We also wanted a good mix of kinds and budgets, from bee-themed kitchen pieces and a notebook to a suncatcher and a book vase. That way there is something for many different gardeners, whatever their taste.

Which gifts work well as stocking fillers for a gardener?

These gifts work well as stocking fillers for a gardener: small, cheerful and easy to tuck in. Each one adds a touch of garden charm, from a herb-scented candle to a wildflower tote bag.

Garden Quote Wood Slice Coasters, Set of 4 (£9.49)

Sweet, simple and personal, these wood coasters come as a set of four, each with a garden quote. One reads 'A garden is a friend you can visit anytime', which is just right for a gardener who loves their plot. Each coaster is 10.5 cm tall and 11 cm wide, so they sit neatly under a mug. They also suit Mum, Dad or a Secret Santa.

Which bee-themed gifts suit a keen gardener?
