Five fabulous garden-inspired Christmas gifts Christopher Lloyd's mother Daisy was determined that her children - he had four brothers and a sister - would be very capable so she taught them all needlepoint. Great Dixter is filled with cushions and chairs, which they completed collaboratively. A keen gardener himself, Tim Page scaled up pieces to use as inspiration for four glorious hand-knotted bespoke rugs (£660 per square metre), thus funding the charitable trust that owns the house to conserve and photograph the collection. Great Dixter rugs (020 7259 7282) Table designed by a Chelsea medallist Garden designer Arne Maynard started making furniture when he couldn't find what he wanted for his clients. Now he has teamed up with the carpentry workshops at Haddon Hall to create a range, using estate oak. The latest additions are the cricket table (£1,920) and the trinity table (£2,808), the top of which swivels cleverly to let the leaves drop (pictured). Both work indoors or out and you can see them at The New Craftsmen's Garage, London W1. Arne Maynard (020 7689 8100) Botanical light installation There's something of the curiosity shop about the Plantboxes created by Martha Freud (Clement's granddaughter). Twelve porcelain beakers, each one printed using a different plant - she'll take cuttings from your garden on request - are displayed in a cabinet with the Latin name written underneath. She fits the beakers with lights and the mystical glow is the antidote to LED spots (from £1,200). Martha Freud A tree photographer's first furniture collection Pam Weinstock shakes up English furniture traditions by using her striking photographs of trees taken in different seasons to turn upholstery into 3D art. The wintriest is Hibernate, an Alfred Hitchcock storytelling chair lined with bare black branches (£6,048). Reawaken is a plump buttoned sofa showing signs of spring (£6,730). And the magnolia blooms, below, on a high-backed love seat, Joie de Vivre (£6,409). Pam Weinstock Furniture
