Why choose us?
We are a small UK business based in Pershore, Worcestershire that specialises in gardening gifts and stationery.
We started Border in a Box in 2017 after moving into a new build property and had no clue what to do with the garden. This led onto retraining as a garden designer, then creating show gardens, meeting the fabulous Alan Titchmarsh and showing him the prototype of the garden design kits (which he loved!) and it all grew from there.
Our designs are unique to us, so you can ensure any gift purchased and sent to your loved ones are special and well thought out.
When creating our gift range, the same illustrations and colours are used throughout which means you can buy several items and they will all coordinate beautifully.

“Just wanted to say thank you for the lovely 2024 seed calendar I bought recently. It’s beautiful. So beautifully packaged and such a lovely calendar and lovely seeds and planting advice. My mum is going to love it as a Christmas gift! You’ve obviously put so much thought into the presentation and unboxing experience of opening your products. It’s absolutely beautiful! Thank you so much.”
