Learn what separates Worcester Wreath Co. from the rest
Growing our own balsam trees at the Worcester Wreath Co. has made a huge difference in the quality of products that we can deliver to customers. When we started in business, like other wreath makers, we had to buy balsam from anybody that would gather and you got what they delivered, no matter what the quality. If it was inferior, you had to buy it, because we had to make the product anyway.Let's Take a Look at the Secrets of Valentine's Day

The Symbolism of a Wreath
Posted by S. on 2/6/2012 to
In ancient Greece and Rome, wreaths were known as diadems, from the Greek "diadema," which means "a thing bound around." Wreaths were worn or hung to represent a person's occupation, rank and status.
Wreaths made of laurel were associated with the Greek god Apollo, known as the god of life and light. One myth describes Apollo's romantic pursuit of the nymph Daphne. She fled and asked for help from the river god, Peneus, who turned her into a laurel tree. From then on, Apollo wore a laurel wreath on his head, and the wreath became associated with the characteristics of Apollo --victory, achievement and status.
