Fresh Christmas wreaths, delivered across London
A wreath is the one piece of Christmas decoration that is seen by everybody who comes to the door, and the only one that is still alive. Ours are built on a moss base in our Bermondsey studio, by hand, from fresh conifer cut for the season rather than from wire and plastic berries. They go out across London seven days a week, on the date you choose at checkout, and we take orders until 22:00 for the following day.
Prices start at £69 for a classic door wreath and rise with size and with what goes into it — dried citrus, cinnamon, pine cones, eucalyptus, spray roses. If you want something specific, say so in the order notes: every wreath is made to order, so a colour, a ribbon or a diameter is a request we can meet rather than a special order.
What goes into a Floritta wreath
The base is Nordmann fir and blue pine, which hold their needles indoors far longer than spruce, wired onto a mossed ring rather than glued to a foam form. On top of that go the things that make a wreath look like it came from a florist and not a supermarket shelf: eucalyptus for silver, ilex or hypericum for berries, dried orange slices, cinnamon bundles, cones, and on the larger designs fresh roses. The finish is a wide velvet or satin ribbon, tied rather than stapled.
Because the greenery is fresh, every wreath is slightly different — the same design made two weeks apart will not be identical, and that is the point. If you need several to match, for a shop front or a row of office doors, order them together and we will build them from the same delivery of stock.
Door wreath or table wreath?
A door wreath hangs vertically and is built to be seen from one side, with the weight of the decoration in the lower third. A table wreath lies flat, is decorated all the way round, and usually takes a candle in the centre — it is the piece that replaces a bouquet on a Christmas table, where a tall arrangement gets in the way of the conversation. Both are made on the same base, so if you want one design in both formats for the same house, we can do that.
If you would rather have flowers than foliage, the rest of the range lives in our Christmas collection — festive bouquets, table arrangements and gift sets. And if the gift is for a home that already has a wreath, a plant lasts past Twelfth Night.
When to order, and the December dates that matter
Wreath season opens for us at the end of November, when the first conifer arrives, and the busiest week is the one before the second weekend of December — that is when most London households put the tree up and the wreath goes on the door. Order in that window and you get the full choice of designs; order in the last week before Christmas and you get whatever the stock allows.
Two dates are firm. For addresses outside London we need the order by 18 December, because those go by courier and take two to three working days. In London we deliver right up to 24 December. Our December ordering guide sets out the rest of the calendar, and express delivery covers the last-minute cases.
Wreath-making workshops
We also teach it. Our wreath-making workshops run in the studio through late November and December: you build your own wreath on a mossed ring from the same stock we use for the shop, and take it home the same evening. It works as a Christmas outing for a group of friends and as a team event for a small office. Dates and prices are on the workshop page.
Wreaths for offices, shops and clients
A reception door, a shop front and a row of meeting rooms all want the same thing in December and all want it delivered at once, before the office party rather than after it. We deliver multiple wreaths to one address or one wreath to each of many addresses, invoice with VAT, and can hold a recurring order year to year. The terms are on our business page; for a standing arrangement through the rest of the year, see flower subscriptions.
Christmas wreath questions
How long does a fresh Christmas wreath last?
Outdoors on a north-facing door, four to six weeks — through the whole season. Indoors, in a heated room, closer to two to three weeks, because central heating dries the needles. Misting the greenery with water every few days roughly doubles the indoor life. There is a longer answer, with the reasons, in our guide to keeping a wreath fresh.
When should I order a Christmas wreath in London?
For the widest choice, in the first ten days of December. For a specific design or several matching wreaths, a week earlier than that. The last London delivery date is 24 December; outside London the cut-off is 18 December.
Do you deliver wreaths outside London?
Yes, anywhere in the UK, by courier, in two to three working days — the wreath travels boxed and flat-packed on its ring. Order by 18 December for Christmas arrival. Delivery terms are on our delivery page.
Can I hang the wreath outside?
Yes, and outside is where a fresh wreath does best — cold air keeps it alive. Rain does no harm. Direct afternoon sun and the heat of a doorway above a radiator are what shorten its life, so a sheltered, shaded door is the ideal spot.
Can you make a wreath in a particular colour or size?
Yes. Every wreath is made to order, so a colour scheme, a ribbon, a diameter or a specific addition — dried citrus, no berries, white only — is a note on the order rather than a bespoke commission. For a set that has to match, order them together.
What is the difference between a fresh wreath and a preserved one?
A fresh wreath is cut conifer and lives for the season, then goes on the compost — the greenery, the moss and the ring are all biodegradable. A preserved or artificial wreath is kept and reused for years. We make fresh ones only; the smell of the pine is most of the reason people buy them.
Do you make funeral wreaths as well?
Yes, but they are a different range with a different shape and palette, and they are not on this page — the ones here are festive. Sympathy tributes are in our sympathy flowers section.
