When I’m 90 please send me a bouquet like this :)

Btw, that ain’t gonna happen because my birthday is in November and there will be no Peonies then! Oh well, a girl can dream 🌸💕

You make a peony bouquet AND you get to see it again in full bloom when the awesome recipient sends you a follow up picture!

Our bouquets are delivered in as tight bud as possible and then they transform in your home. We don’t often get to see the end result so to speak.

We create our bouquets to look good right away but with the flower knowledge to know they’ll look exquisite a few days later!

Thank you for taking the time to show us how much you love your bouquet and thank you peonies for holding up in the crazy heat! Bravo all round.

Yesterday it was my real honour to send flowers to the funeral of Lizz, a true piece of our community who I feel very lucky to have met along my journey with my business. Her family were also a joy and although difficult reasons for meeting, I could feel all Liz’s love right in the room with us as we remembered her.

Liz was full of life and fun, she talked as much as me and we had some great chats at the shop. We met in sad circumstances when she asked me to do her beloved son’s sympathy flowers. After that though she’d rally me with words of encouragement and support regularly, in person and on the old socials. She even crocheted us a shop mascot, lovingly named Selena Growmez, who often gets a little pat on the head and the occasional cuddle when it’s just one of those days.

Picture 1. Liz’s stunning heart including Banda orchids, roses, carnations and akstromeria.

Picture 2. Selena Growmez, we said a little good bye and thank you to Liz together before the tribute left the shop.

Picture 3. Ben’s flowers that mirror his mothers whilst still both remaining completely individual to each of them.

Thank you Lizz, and your lovely family for giving me the gift to create a final tribute to you.

Why it pays to get a regular flower subscription?

Put simply I always give you more than I should!

When You give me a regular order, you better believe I often do just a little bit of extra bouquet stuffing so you get the best of the bunch. If it needs another stem, my subscribers get it!

You need to change your delivery date by a few days? I’ll be flexible and let you switch it up without hesitation!

You trust me to know where you live and turn up at your door every week or 2…then you get free delivery thrown in for good measure.

You love bits and buds flowers and I love you back. It’s as simple as that, you give me loyalty and I give you gratitude in The form of flowers ###x

I’m quite enjoying this mixed bag of sunny, stormy weather because it makes the flowers dreamy when I photograph them.

This pretty little number was sporting some extra special British alliums and scented grim to celebrate a new baby 😻

When you’re a flower shop owner with literally the best customers in the world who not only choose a bouquet then add extras to it including a scrummy box of chocs because…why wouldn’t you, they also read your gosh darn tiered little mind and treat you to a cappuccino before deciding to get a new flower subscription too.

I love you guys ###

And why am I tiered you ask (I know you didn’t ask but I’ll tell you anyway 😂

😭ongoing stress about the £1000 electricity bill, mot, road tax, van insurance and rent being due

Did you know we sell these fabulous candle re fills? As a florist I obviously love sensory thing of beauty and these fit very nicely into that box thank you very much x

They come as they are or you can get a starter kit with a perfectly sized ceramic candle jar and you can choose your candle.

Did you know something like 35 million candle jars get thrown away every year! (Thanks for the stats Caz) I know I’ve tried cleaning some out and just got so frustrated they’ve gone in the bin. This is such a win win, saves you the guilt and our landfills being even fuller.

We’ve got

Peony and sweet pea
Rhubarb and rose
Sliced orange
Fig
Thyme and cedar wood

All made of high quality soy wax using the best essential oils with long burn times.

What smell catches your fancy from the list?

Thought for today! Watch out, it’s a moan. May delete later but over sharing is kind of my thing.

All small business energy contractors are scam artists. Just as I thought I’d got a handle on this years not very fun cash flow (love how this story just keeps dragging on for us all) I get charged my monthly electricity bill….that they’ve decided equates too an entire years worth of electricity and over £1000! I turn lights on for approx 25 hours a week! That’s it, no heating, air con unit isn’t on yet even.

Oh what fun! How I love wasting my time trying to get money back from these ridiculous companies. Just another bts insight to life as a retailer just trying to pay myself minimum wage.

Hands up local businesses that have stories to tell of this sort of absolute rubbish! Who can relate?

Hope everyone is having a gorgeous bank holiday! Remember it’s the May Day fair in town today too if you fancy a mooch x...
