What to expect from fresh boxwood wreaths
A fresh boxwood wreath is a dense, small-leaved botanical wreath that works as simple year-round greenery or seasonal décor.
Available options are 12-inch, 20-inch, or 20-inch two-pack. Because these are natural materials, color, shape, fullness, scent, and bloom stage can vary.
Care and display
How to use and care for a fresh boxwood wreath
Fluff the foliage after delivery, keep it away from direct sun and heat, and water it regularly in warm conditions without leaving it saturated.
Subtle green foliage scent rather than a strong floral fragrance. Natural scent and appearance change over time, so inspect the botanicals regularly rather than relying only on a promised number of days.
Care and display
When to replace or remove it
Remove fresh or dried botanicals if you see mold, notice a stale or musty smell, or find that shedding and brittleness no longer suit the display.

Customer questions
Frequently asked questions
Straight answers to common questions about identifying, buying, using, caring for, and safely displaying the botanical covered here.
Is this fresh boxwood wreath made with real plants?
Yes. Live boxwood foliage on a wire frame. Natural leaf shape, color, fullness, and symmetry vary from wreath to wreath.
Where can I buy a fresh boxwood wreath?
Fresh boxwood wreaths are typically offered in November–December, with wholesale holiday prebooking often beginning in August. Self Care Shower has not confirmed the next finished-wreath order window, so ordering remains closed.
What size fresh boxwood wreath should I choose?
Measure the door, wall, mantel, or table before ordering. Available sizes are 12-inch, 20-inch, or 20-inch two-pack. Allow extra room for foliage that extends beyond the frame.
Can I hang this wreath outside?
Use it indoors or in a fully sheltered outdoor location. Direct sun, heat, rain, and strong wind can shorten its fresh stage and increase shedding.
How long will the wreath last?
There is no fixed lifespan; placement, temperature, humidity, and care determine how quickly it dries.
Is this wreath safe around cats and dogs?
Do not allow pets to eat or chew the botanicals in this display. Keep it out of reach, ask your veterinarian if you are unsure about your pet or placement, and contact a veterinarian promptly if a pet eats any part or becomes unwell.
Does a fresh boxwood wreath have a strong smell?
It has a subtle green-foliage scent rather than a strong floral or eucalyptus-like fragrance. Choose it mainly for its dense, small-leaved appearance.
Can a boxwood wreath work outside the holidays?
Yes. Its plain green foliage can suit year-round décor as well as seasonal styling, provided the placement is appropriate for fresh plant material.
How should I care for boxwood in a warm climate?
Water it regularly in warm conditions, keep it out of direct sun, and avoid heat sources. Do not leave it persistently soaked.
Is this boxwood wreath artificial or preserved?
No. It is made with live boxwood foliage on a wire frame and naturally dries over time.
