Madeira T-shirts & hoodies with embroidered flowers
The island's flowers, embroidered in our Funchal atelier — on a white or black cotton t-shirt or large on the front of a hoodie. Each one has its own story, from the bird of paradise the British brought from Africa to the Pride of Madeira, which grows wild nowhere else. And caps — with your name or a date.
Hibiscus
Hibiscus rosa-sinensisThanks to the mild climate of the "island of eternal spring," hibiscus blooms almost year-round in hedges and gardens across Madeira — the easiest flower to spot, and one of the most photographed.
Anywhere you like. “Elsewhere” — tell us where in the order notes.
Bird of Paradise
Strelitzia reginaeIt wasn't born on Madeira — it came from South Africa, brought by British traders who settled around Monte and Camacha in the 18th and 19th centuries. But today it grows in so many of the island's gardens that visitors treat it as a local flower.
Anywhere you like. “Elsewhere” — tell us where in the order notes.
Protea
Protea cynaroidesAlso originally from South Africa, but since the 1970s it's genuinely grown on Madeira's volcanic slopes — the island now has its own small protea production, sold fresh at Mercado dos Lavradores.
Anywhere you like. “Elsewhere” — tell us where in the order notes.
Anthurium
Anthurium andraeanumOne of the flowers sold by the "floreiras" — women in traditional dress — at the entrance of Mercado dos Lavradores since 1940. Its glossy heart-shaped leaf makes it the most recognisable of all.
Anywhere you like. “Elsewhere” — tell us where in the order notes.
Pride of Madeira
Echium candicansThe only flower in this collection that's genuinely Madeira's own: it grows wild only in the island's interior, between 800 and 1200 metres, and nowhere else in the archipelago — which is exactly why the world calls it "Pride of Madeira."
Anywhere you like. “Elsewhere” — tell us where in the order notes.
Everlasting Flower
Helichrysum spp.Called "everlasting" because once picked and dried, it keeps its colour and shape for years — it never really wilts. Fitting, since we embroider one too: ours stays like that forever as well.
Anywhere you like. “Elsewhere” — tell us where in the order notes.
Every flower can go on any of the seven hoodie colours.
Hoodie with a large embroidered flower
Pick one of the eight flowers — we embroider it large on the front of a warm cotton-blend hoodie.
Anywhere you like. “Elsewhere” — tell us where in the order notes.
