Tropical vs Botanical Mural Wallpaper: What's the Difference?

Quick answer

Tropical: Tropical wallpaper turns any room into a holiday. Botanical Mural: Botanical murals scale foliage up to near life size, layering leaves in depth so a wall reads as a painted garden rather than a repeat. In practice: Large-scale tropical repeats need space to breathe: living rooms, landings and bathrooms are perfect. Brilliant on a single feature wall, behind a bed or wrapped around a dining room. Our range has 158 tropical and 40 botanical mural designs.
