“The purchase in 1997 saw the family relocate
from South Kensington and begin a painstaking
five-year renovation of Petersham House.”


A Stone’s throw from London, between Ham, village-like Richmond, and the banks of the River Thames, lies Petersham Nurseries. The garden centre, glasshouse restaurant and Edenic retreat is a 20-year labour of love from Australian expat Gael Boglione, her Italian husband, Francesco, and their extended family. The venture bloomed from a small nursery at the bottom of their garden into an internationally renowned destination. Now a new book, Petersham Nurseries, charts its flowering from humble beginnings to lifestyle brand.
