The most highly coveted of all the alpine flowers, I have been looking for Edelweiss in the mountains all my life. The plants spend the winter covered in snow and somehow still bloom from spring to autumn.
When I was ten years old my mother painted all the furniture in my bedroom green and covered it in strings of hand painted white Edelweiss. In short, she found a way to bring them home. This is the closest I could get to that original drawing.
Edelweiss Gingham looks particularly lovely in blinds and lampshades like these ones made by the brilliant Imogen Pope London
