Love Grows Wild Luxe Tee
An enchanted garden of earthly delights! Our lush and verdant botanical print comes from the “12 Months of Flowers”, a series of remarkably beautiful hand-coloured etchings from the 1700s by engraver Henry Fletcher. The prints were commissioned by famed English gardener Robert Furber, and were published as a catalogue of flowers and seeds according to season. We chose the Fletcher’s print from the month of March for its delightfully detailed blooms, and then layered the flowers together to create a wild and wonderful print that captures the exuberance of the garden. The charming bumblebee trim on the inside hem comes from a museum seed catalogue from the late 1800’s. We are so excited to wear this print! It’s such a joyful and abundant design that goes with almost every colour. Sometimes more is more — more flowers, more love, more everything :)
About our Luxe Tees:
This is how we do basic! We’ve taken a wardrobe staple — the humble t-shirt — and elevated it to a chic, easy piece that’s destined to become a style you’ll reach for over and over, all year long. Crafted from the same soft bamboo fabric as our stardusters, our Luxe Tees feature a flattering, wide scoop neck, relaxed seamless sleeve, side slits, and hem detailing with a hidden contrast print. Available in two sizes custom-designed to fit different body types, our S/M is cut slightly shorter to flatter sizes 2-10, and our L/XL has extra length for sizes 10-14.
100% viscose (derived from plant fibres such as wood and bamboo). Machine wash gentle or handwash and hang to dry. Iron to finish if needed.
Measurements: S/M — length 64cm (shoulder to hem), width 57cm (underarm to underarm), L/XL — length 75cm, 63cm width (underarm to underarm). Model is 5’5” for reference.

The artisan, the gardener. Women who cultivate joy, who keep the garden of their hearts a little wild. Women who never stop blooming.

Robert Furber, the British horticulturalist who commissioned the marvellous artwork we used to create Love Grows Wild, wrote the very first seed catalogue ever produced in England and spent much of his life dedicated to documenting and preserving plants and flowers. The Twelve Months of Flowers, printed in 1730, remains his most well-known work and features over 400 species of flowers organized by their blooming season. Even today, almost 300 years later, it remains an astonishingly beautiful celebration botanical beauty.

When we are old and the yard is a tangle of lilac and weeds, I will stand at the window and watch you go out with scissors. The kettle will be whistling, sink full of dishes still yellow with yolk from breakfast. My arms will be bony and veined with blue, my hands under the faucet will seem too fragile to be my hands.
From the window I will watch you pull aside the vines to cut the late spring blooms, hum softly our familiar praises — the ones that made the crocus close in amens at dusk for us and open like silk curtains each morning. Your head will bow in the sun as lilacs bow, reverent among the bees. When our garden is wild with ghosts I will still be yours. Come back to the house, fill my pottery arms with flowers at the door of our kitchen, in this world and the next.
