Sunny Day in Hove

Today has been a glorious sunny day  .... And getting our flower delivery you could really see that autumn had arrived with the physalis, gorgeous blooms, huge orange roses.... One of my favourite things about running a florist is the changing of season's and getting all the new seasonal flowers in.... And rediscovering old favourites....   Happy Autumn

Vintage flower jars

Our pretty vintage flower jars have been really popular this week in store, a lovely pick up and go gift. Perfect to brighten your desk, your bedside table, or if you're popping round to see friends. Also if you're looking for small designs for your wedding, they can be grouped together, or popped singularly on tables.Great at this time of year as there are lots of fragrant flowers to use, like stocks, sweet peas and peonies  

Lonely bouquet day

    This is such a lovely positive idea so lets all get involved      http://www.fleuropean.com/lonely-bouquet-take-me-tags/

Beautiful wedding flowers

These Dutch Sweet Avalanche roses must be one of the most popular wedding flowers we offer, as they are not only pretty, romantic and elegant, but last so long and are always fantastic quality. So as a bride you get the romance and beauty, and as a florist we know they will be beautiful all day long...a perfect combination from a great dutch grower.

Carrie managed to grab an afternoon off to visit the 100th RHS Chelsea Flower Show, and loved it....just so inspiring, and what a perfect sunny day too.
And this was the much deserved winner of the RHS Chelsea Florist of the Year: Laura Leong, Moulton College. And who says Floristry isn't art....

Valentine's Day will soon be here..

 We are gearing up for the yearly event of Valentine's Day here at our store in Hove, on this chilly day by the sea. Some may say Valentine's Day is purely commercial but I think it's a positive day to tell your loved one that they are loved as sometime's it's the only time of year it's said, and sometime's its the only time of year people receive flowers. We know from personally delivering bouquets, just how much they make people smile. So take a look at our vast range of bouquets, and gifts, including these beautiful Love Spoons made in America for us, from Vintage spoons, and each one carrying a message...something to cherish forever....Happy Valentine's Day x
