The original Greenery tapestry, completed in 1892, is now on loan to the National Trust of Scotland and is hung at Crathes Castle, Banchory. A second weaving was completed in 1915 and is in the Metropolitan Museum, New York.
Beth Russell has adapted the very large weaving into needlepoint and divided it into parts, which she has named for convenience. Each of these would make a hansome firescreen or wall hanging. Sewn together the entire scene is magnificent.
