We are proud to support one of Britain's most recognisable and treasured heritage sites, Castle Howard. This decadent arrangement is inspired by the magnificent 8,800-acre estate. Working with Castle Howard, a place like no other, we have produced an arrangement designed to impress. We have created this impressive arrangement inspired by the truly remarkable landscapes that cover the Howardian hills and 300-year-old walled garden. The bouquet is beautifully fragrant, just like you would experience walking through the vast landscape. We have added Da Vanda orchids and Lavandula eucalyptus to represent the mass of wild orchids that sprinkle the greens with fragrance and elegance. We have added agapanthus as a flower growing in the walled gardens and included bear grass to represent the wildness or the lands. Boasting over 2000 varieties of roses we have included memory lane roses to represent the rich history of its heritage. The use of green bell thlapsi and bouvardia highlight the splashes of floral grace evident throughout the gardens and Castle. To complete this decadent arrangement, the use or white calla lilies characterises the exquisite history and sophistication that has been enjoyed in the Castle for over 300 years.
