Saving a National Treasure: Lumatek Professional Lighting's Key Role in the Preservation of a Priceless Collection of Rare and Historic 250-Year-Old Camellias
Lumatek Professional Lighting's contribution to the preservation of a rare and historic collection of 250-year-old camellias at @OfficialWentworthWoodhouse is nothing short of extraordinary. This Grade I listed country house, located in Rotherham, is a true national treasure, and its collection of camellias, discovered by the Head Gardener during renovations, is a testament to its rich history and cultural significance. The collection includes some of the earliest camellias in the Western world, dating back to the 1820s-30s.
The Camellia House built in 1812 specifically to show them off fell into decline along with the rest of Wentworth Woodhouse, from the late 1900s and the camellias were forgotten.
The awaited restoration of the building that has been home to the camellias for over two centuries is taking place. However, this process was causing the camellias to lose a significant amount of their natural light. The project team encountered a distinctive challenge since the 19 camellias are fragile and cannot be relocated.
The solution?
Lumatek's Ats300W LED products, specifically designed to supplement natural sunlight and promote photosynthesis, have been installed to assist in maintaining the camellias' health during the restoration work. The outcome surpassed expectations, as not only did the camellias survive, but they also exhibited a remarkable surge in growth and vitality.
Lumatek's LED products are renowned for their exceptional quality and optimal spectrum of light for plant growth, providing the camellias with the nourishment they need to thrive. By partnering with the restoration project, Lumatek has demonstrated its unwavering commitment to preserving cultural heritage and supporting the community.
The preservation of this priceless collection of rare and historic camellias is truly a national achievement, made possible by the hard work and dedication of everyone involved in the project, including Lumatek. As a result, future generations will have the opportunity to marvel at this exceptional collection, and Wentworth Woodhouse will continue to be a beacon of cultural significance for years to come.
