Every year Zita dreams up an original theme for the Kew flower shop creating an aura of enchantment at Christmas. Step into 2017’s wonderland via a dense fruit and foliage arch layered with multitudinous textures. Inside the colours are subtle, grouped into distinctive palettes like a series of tableaux: warming reds, oranges and gold; calming greys, greens and silver; and painterly pastel bouquets evocative of celebrations in times gone by. Zita’s signature naturalistic arrangements bring the whole look together into one rich landscape, scented by the aroma of pine and spices, and laced with the floral notes of luxurious candles.
