DESCRIPTION OF THE SIZE OF THIS WREATH IS MISLEADING . EVEN THOUGH IT IS BEAUTIFUL IT IS SMALL MEASURING ONLY  18IN FROM FLOWER TO FLOWER OF EACH SIDE WHEN FLUFFED. APPARENTLY THE MANUFACTURER TAKES INTO ACCOUNT THE LEAFY BRANCHES THAT WHEN FULLY STRETCHED OUT   BRINGS IT TO 24 IN. DESPITE THE FACT THAT THE BULK OF THE WREATH IS WITHIN 18 IN. THE EYE IS NOT REALLY DRAWN TO THOSE FEW AND FAR BETWEEN LEAFY BRANCHES.
