Description
Beautifully designed 2025 wall calendar with vegetable and herb illustrations. A5 size opens to A4. Created for the ‘Grow Your Own’ enthusiast and includes 12 packets of seeds – one to sow each month.
A sowing guide is included so you know which seeds to sow each month along with a photo and information about each plant. Seed packets contain the growing instructions and there is also a ‘sow at a glance’ chart showing with month each seed can be sown (indoors on a window sill or directly in the soil) and when you can expect to harvest.
Garden notes show the best way to sow seeds to obtain the best results – although not every seed is the same, so cross check with the seed packet.
All the seeds can be grown either in pots/containers, grow bags or directly in the garden soil. No gardening expertise is required, just a sunny place to sow the seeds and a dollop of enthusiasm to nurture your crops.
Designed and created by Border in a Box, Worcestershire, UK and makes a fantastic Christmas gift too.

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.”
