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. Introducing exclusively to the Castle Howard Collection for this Mother's Day, The Lady Mary Howard bouquet. Lady Mary Howard was the Daughter of the 6th Earl and Countess of Carlisle who's portrait adorns in the Turquoise Drawing Room within Castle Howard. In the stunning portrait of Lady Mary Howard that was commissioned from the Yorkshire artist John Jackson we see Lady Mary Howard wearing an elegant white dress with a fashionable blue waist ribbon and matching shoes, while holding a small posey of pink roses. These inspired this beautiful bouquet, including beautiful Sweet Avalanche Roses, Pink Germini, Pink Tulips finished with Pink Bouvardia. Proceeds from this bouquet will be passed to Castle Howard to contribute to the continued preservation and conservation of this beautiful Heritage site and to contribute to its maintenance to help ensure it can be enjoyed for many years to come.

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.

Working with Castle Howard, a place like no other, we have produced an arrangement designed to impress. The picturesque grounds nestled in the beauty of the Howardian Hills lends the inspiration to pair luxury peach avalanche and sweet avalanche roses with over 2000 species of beautiful roses found in the estate rose gardens. We have utilised a use of flowers to boast colours enjoyed in the gardens with a special variety of germini, suitably coined the sing-sing. To represent the fragrant gardens, we have used sweet smelling eucalyptus, British lisianthus found in the grass lands around the Castle and English Lavender to give exquisite depth to this arrangement and to hug the delicate veronica blossoms inspired by the atlas fountain to represent the spectacular water jets. With the use of solidago used to signify the signs of zodiac, a blossom identified with the stars, we have also used four stems of majestic eryngium to represent the four tritons beautifully sculptured on the fountain. Proceeds from this bouquet will be given to Castle Howard to contribute to the continued preservation and conservation of this beautiful Heritage site and to contribute to the maintenance towards the stunning grounds, to preserve heritage to be enjoyed for many years to come.
