The past couple of weeks have been awful; not in a quiet way - I've been busier than ever - but very much in a flowery way. I have received Four, that's 𝗙𝗢𝗨𝗥, complaints about flowers not lasting. How many people have not been happy and not bothered to complain? Two of those complaints were perfectly justified; as a result I have raked my wholesaler over the coals for it. I put my trust in…
I’m seeing lots of posts this morning wishing everyone a Happy 1st August, so of course I’d like to wish you all a fabulous month ahead too! 🍂 ☀️ But when I see the date and turn over the calendar, while most of you are probably thinking about more sunshine (personally, I’m SO over this heat! 🥵 😂 ), or counting down to a holiday, or wondering what on earth to do with the kids for the rest of…
I wish these weren't artificial because the colours are simply gorgeous and work well with each other. This will be making its way to one of our favourite people tomorrow.
Not flower related, although it kind of is! Anyone, regardless of race, colour, gender or sexual orientation can be an abuser - both physically and mentally - just as anyone (including some of the toughest people) can find themselves in an abusive relationship. I shared a post at the beginning of England’s World Cup 2026 campaign highlighting how domestic abuse and violence can rise exponentially…

England are playing tomorrow night at 9pm. For many people, that means watching the match with friends, family, and a few drinks. Unfortunately, for others, it can be a time of fear and anxiety. It is well documented that during major football tournaments, incidents of domestic abuse can rise significantly. Some studies have found increases of around 26% when the home team wins and 34% when they…
Completely unrelated to flowers but as some of you know I took a sneaky holiday at the end of last month - I know, it has not gone down well with some! Anyway, my biggest issue about having a trip away is not the shop - that will be there when I come back - but what to do with my Conure (a shouty, attention seeking, nippy, kissy mini parrot). That's how a lot of researching lead me to Parrot Hotel…
I loved being tasked with creating a casket spray using spring flowers, along with other flowers and foliages that could be found on an afternoon wander through the woods. It was a real privilege to be trusted with such a personal tribute.
