As part of Rougham Estate in Bloom, Suzy, our visual merchandiser, has been working on a beautiful idea that brings the garden right into the heart of the home: an edible wreath made from herbs, flowers and edible plants.
Designed to be hung on a door or used as a natural table centrepiece, it’s a living arrangement that can be picked from and enjoyed over time, blending decoration with everyday use in the kitchen.
This particular wreath combines trailing sugar snap pea plants with the vibrant, peppery blooms of nasturtiums, as well as pansies and violas which bring colour and a gentle, slightly grassy sweetness.
Alongside this, there are plenty of other herbs and edible flowers you can use to create your own versions at home. Herb flowers such as chive, basil and rosemary add subtle flavour, while lavender brings a fragrant note for baking and infusions.
Here is the full video:
It’s a simple but inspiring way of thinking differently about what we grow, where beauty and flavour sit side by side, and nothing in the garden needs to go to waste.
