Christmas
At RHG we are passionate about Christmas - for us, most of November and December is taken up with festive floristry work such as wreaths, mantlepiece garlands, table dressing and much more!
We sell our wreaths exclusively at March House Farm Shop, and start taking orders in mid November - more details about our wreaths can be found here.
We also dress tables, fireplaces, doorways, staircases...well anything that we can attach foliage to basically! This is both for private houses as well as venues - availability for our Christmas Floristry is very limited so do get in touch as early as possible to enquire about our bespoke packages.

Wreaths
As featured in this month's Gardener's World Magazine!
We have now stopped taking orders for 2023! Thank you to everyone who has ordered from us this year - Merry Christmas!
All of our wreaths are handmade here in Leicestershire by the Heathcote Wreaths team. We source as many of the elements locally as possible - our moss is harvested directly by us from a sustainable source in Rothley, Leicestershire, as is most of the foliage we use for the base of wreaths. Many of the dried flowers and seedheads are grown, harvested and dried by us.
To order your wreath please fill in the form at the bottom of this page.

Please note that the images are to give you an idea of the style of the wreath. As all wreaths are handmade, each is unique. In the event that one or more elements are unavailable, a suitable alternative will be chosen at our discretion.
All sizes are approximate.
Wreath care: all of our wreaths are designed to be displayed on the outside of doors - wreaths displayed indoors will dry out much quicker. Our wreaths tend to look their best for 2-3 weeks, although in sheltered conditions they often last longer. Our wreaths are not suitable for doors that are particularly exposed to heavy wind and rain. If in any doubt, please get in touch before ordering.
Order Your Wreath
We have now stopped taking orders for wreaths for this year. Ordering for next year opens in mid November 2024.
