Pequot Floral – Vintage Garden Wallpaper | Melissa Dayton Art
Couldn't load pickup availability
The roses at the Walpole fence were always the best ones — the ones that got so big by August they bent the boards. Pequot Floral was painted from that memory. A scattered garden bouquet of cabbage roses, delphiniums, sunflowers, and soft wildflowers — the kind of pattern that feels like something you've been trying to get back to for a very long time.
There was a bedroom like this once.
Ralph Lauren. Cream ground. Roses everywhere — cabbage blooms tumbling across a duvet that made the whole room feel like an English manor house, even if you were in Connecticut. The delphiniums were blue. The sunflowers were gold. There was a butterfly somewhere in the repeat if you looked long enough.
You never forgot how that room felt.
Pequot Floral was designed for the woman who has been quietly trying to recreate that feeling ever since.
Inspired by the gardens of the Pequot Yacht Club — where white Walpole fences lined the grounds and climbing roses grew all summer long, full and slightly wild by August — this scattered bouquet floral carries the romance of a garden at its peak. Cabbage roses in soft blush and deep pink. Blue delphiniums. Golden sunflowers. Small wildflower sprigs drifting across a warm cream ground like petals caught in a breeze.
It is unapologetically romantic. Layered without being heavy. Nostalgic without being precious.
This is the pattern your mother would have chosen. And you're choosing it now because you finally can.
Cream — The Garden in Full Sun A warm ivory ground that makes every bloom feel freshly cut and sun-warmed. This is the colorway of that bedroom you remember — romantic, layered, and completely at ease with itself. It reads soft in morning light and deeply nostalgic by candlelight.
Pairs beautifully with: Antique brass, aged linen, warm white millwork, rattan, wicker, faded Oriental rugs, blue and white transferware, and natural wood tones.
Pairs beautifully with: Crisp white millwork, navy accents, natural linen, wicker, aged silver, blue transferware, and sisal flooring.

Samples
Samples
Here's a cleaner, brand-aligned rewrite — no "free," no emoji-heavy discount language, just confident and clear:
SAMPLE YOUR FAVORITES — $5 each
Select "Sample" under the panel size options above.
Color, texture, and scale are everything in a wallpaper decision — and our samples make it easy to get it right. Each sample is printed on the same premium paper stock used in your full panels, so what you hold in your hand is exactly what you'll receive on your walls.
We strongly recommend ordering samples before committing to full panels, as color and scale can vary slightly from screen to home.
For mural and large-scale designs: We recommend ordering a 2 ft. panel rather than a standard sample, as the full pattern repeat is difficult to assess at smaller scale.
Please note: Samples are not intended to be used in your final installation. Due to the custom print process, panels will not match if combined with separately ordered samples.
Understanding Your Wallpaper Options
Understanding Your Wallpaper Options
Every Melissa Dayton Art design is available in three materials, each suited to a different space and installation need.
Luxe Traditional is a premium non-woven paste-to-wall paper — the most elevated option, with clean butted seams and a finish that reads as truly custom. It's the right choice for any room where permanence and craftsmanship matter most.
Peel & Stick offers a removable, wipeable vinyl with built-in adhesive — ideal for smooth walls, rentals, or rooms where flexibility matters.
Luxe Peel & Stick bridges the two: a thicker, more substantial removable option with the clean butted seams of traditional wallpaper, perfect for feature walls and polished room refreshes.

How to Measure Your Wall Confidently
How to Measure Your Wall Confidently
How to Measure Your Wall
Because your wallpaper is custom printed just for your space, accurate measurements are everything. Please take a moment to measure carefully before placing your order — it makes all the difference.
Measure the full wall — don't subtract anything.
Include the entire width and height of your wall, even over doors, windows, closets, and built-ins. We print full vertical panels that install left to right in sequence, and you'll trim around openings during installation. What we need from you is the complete wall dimension.
Example: A wall that is 120 inches wide and 96 inches tall gets entered as 120 × 96 — even if there's a window in the middle.
Step 1 — Width
Measure from corner to corner in inches. If you're papering more than one wall, measure each wall separately and add the widths together.
Step 2 — Height
Measure at the tallest point of the wall. If your room has baseboards and crown molding, measure the visible wall space between them. For vaulted or angled ceilings, always use the tallest measurement.
Step 3 — Note What's on the Wall
Doors, windows, and built-ins don't need to be papered — but don't subtract them from your measurements. Panels install around these features and are trimmed on-site.
A few important notes before you order:
Panels must all be the same height. Heights cannot be mixed within a single order, as the pattern repeat will not align.
For mural and large-scale designs, we recommend ordering a 2 ft. panel as a sample first — standard samples are too small to show the full repeat clearly.
Because every order is custom printed, we are unable to accept returns or offer refunds for orders placed using incorrect measurements. Please measure twice.
Not sure how many panels you need? Use the Wallpaper Panel Calculator above — just enter your wall's full width and height in inches and it will calculate your panel count automatically.

Installation Tips
For the best possible result, we always recommend working with a professional wallpaper installer. These are the guidelines we share with every customer before installation begins.
Wall Preparation
- Walls should be clean, free of dust, and fully dry before you begin
- All paint must be completely cured — freshly painted walls need adequate drying time before application
- Surface texture matters: our wallpapers are designed for smooth or lightly textured walls (standard orange peel and light knockdown textures typically install well)
A note on textured walls:
If your wall has a soft or moderate texture, the wallpaper will adhere — but the texture may remain visible beneath the surface. For heavily textured or uneven walls, we recommend our traditional pasted wallpaper for the best adhesion and finish.
Please note: Melissa Dayton Art is not responsible for adhesion issues on heavily textured surfaces. When in doubt, order a sample first and test on your specific wall before committing to a full installation.
For textured walls, we recommend:
Traditional Wallpaper Paste — formulated for lasting adhesion on more challenging surfaces

A Few Important Things to Know Before You Order
Because every order is custom printed specifically for your space, we are unable to offer refunds or exchanges for orders placed using incorrect measurements or for installation issues. Please take the time to measure carefully and review our installation guidelines before placing your order.
Color and pattern may vary slightly between orders due to the nature of our custom printing process. If you are ordering for multiple rooms or plan to reorder in the future, we recommend ordering all panels at the same time to ensure consistency.
Our Wallpaper Panel Calculator takes the guesswork out of ordering — simply enter your wall dimensions and it will calculate exactly what you need.
