The Chiswick House Gardens wreath – £55
A classic Christmas wreath made using the traditional materials of holly and ivy, that grow abundantly throughout Chiswick’s 18th century landscape gardens, with other winter foliage highlights. The base of the wreath is made from willow coppiced from the willow stand by the Ionic Temple each winter. The moss that covers the willow is gathered from the grass banks of the lake. The base can be emptied and re-used; all other materials are compostable.
The squirrel’s tail grass wreath – £45
A limited-edition wreath designed by florist and author Carolyn Dunster using a wisteria or willow base, dried squirrel’s tail grass grown in our kitchen garden cut flower plot and the purple berries of Callicarpa bodnieri, that grows behind the rosary. Carolyn has preserved the grasses and berries so that the whole wreath will store well and last year after year. Care instructions provided.
The red and green wreath – £45
A unique wreath using preserved red Virginia creeper from our kitchen garden walls, rose hips and berries, on a bed of fresh fir leaves collected from the Chiswick House Gardens’ evergreens. The base and red natural decorations can be re-used.
The Kitchen Garden edible wreath – £40
An edible wreath composed of fresh and dried herbs and flowers from our Kitchen Garden, developed to provide scent, colour and taste over the festivities. From bay and rosemary, to sage, mint and thyme, this wreath eats beautifully! The willow base can be re-used.
