Top tips on caring for flowers at home

1. Condition flowers before using them (unless you buy from us when they are already conditioned). This means taking off all leaves that will be below the water line, cutting each stem at an angle and leaving in plenty of fresh water (in a cool place) for 6 or more hours before use.
2. Clean your bowl or vase. The biggest issue with flower vase life is how clean the vase is! Make sure it has had a good scrub and clean water before you arrange the flowers.
3. Choose your placement carefully. While it might be tempting to show off an arrangement on a windowsill, summer heat and autumn drafts aren't very flower friendly. They don't want a cosy spot beside the fire or radiator! Flowers like to keep their cool.
4. Check water levels every couple of days and top up if needed.
5. If the flowers are looking a bit tired, you can often get another day or two by taking them out, snipping an inch off the stem and rearranging in the (clean) vase and fresh water.

Enjoy!

Farewell flowers - our commitment to you.

We take as much care over funeral flowers as we do for a wedding.
We will take time to listen to you, find out about the person you are saying goodbye to and help you decide what a fitting tribute might be.
We will make your funeral tributes with care - including care for the environment. No flower foam, no plastic, naturally beautiful flowers, foliage, moss and willow.
We will give you give you time to decide ...including deciding whether we are the right florists for you.

We hope you don't need our services, but if you do, we hope we can gently guide you through.

I just love this photo sent by my lovely friend Paula. She asked us to create a sharing arrangement of dahlias to sit on her mum's casket. This is what we created...taken to the wake to continue the celebration of her mum's life. This is an all british arrangement that can easily be separated into two bouquets to take home.

How delightful is this arrangement in white and yellow...roses, lisianthus, campanula, tanacetum and Ammi. We were asked to create something that evoked summer meadows and that could be shared among mourners. We created 9 relaxed poses that sat in a basket to sit on top of the willow casket. Later, family members each took a posy home. simple, sustainable farewell flowers.
