Our aqua bouquets (beautifully arranged and presented in water) start from £40 and can go up to £500 for large, statement designs, although most of our customers choose something in the £40–£100 range.

The price is mainly influenced by the size of the bouquet, the types of flowers used (some stems cost many times more than others), seasonality, and the level of design work involved. A hand-tied bouquet using premium roses, peonies or orchids, for example, will naturally cost more than one built around seasonal blooms. What stays the same at every price point is the quality: all our bouquets are hand-made by experienced, local florists, using carefully selected flowers, conditioned properly so they look their best and last as long as possible. We’ll always help you choose something that looks generous, thoughtful and right for the occasion — whatever your budget.

A supermarket bouquet is designed for speed, scale and price. It’s mass-produced in large factories, often days before you see it, using standardised designs that are shipped long distances and handled by multiple couriers.

A professional florist’s bouquet is made fresh to order, by hand, using carefully selected stems that are conditioned properly and arranged with skill, balance and attention to detail. Florists consider colour harmony, flower longevity, occasion and budget — and can tailor the design to suit the person receiving it. The result is a bouquet that looks better, lasts longer, and feels genuinely thoughtful rather than off-the-shelf.

Most fresh bouquets will last around 5–7 days, often longer with good care. We condition all flowers properly before they leave the shop, which makes a real difference. To help them last, trim the stems, change the water every couple of days, keep them away from heat and direct sunlight, and use the flower food provided.

Absolutely — bespoke is what we do best. The website and shop displays are there for inspiration, but we’re always happy to create something tailored to your budget, colour preference, style or occasion. A quick conversation is often all it takes to design something truly personal.

We always prioritise quality and freshness above everything else. While British flowers can be wonderful in season, they’re often produced in smaller quantities and are quickly secured by the large national brands. To ensure consistency, size and longevity, we source the very best flowers from trusted growers around the world — with most of our stems arriving via the Netherlands, the global hub for the finest flowers. This allows us to offer exceptional quality and freshness all year round, whatever the season.

Yes, we offer both same-day and future-day local delivery, subject to order time and availability. Because deliveries are handled by our own team (not couriers), they’re reliable, personal and carefully managed — your flowers arrive with a smile, and looking as they should. If ordered by 2pm Mon-Fri we can deliver same day (12 noon on Saturdays).

There’s no single right answer — it’s about meaning, personality and tone. Bright, joyful flowers work well for birthdays, while softer, elegant designs are often chosen for sympathy. Anniversaries suit something romantic or personal, and thank-you flowers are best kept light and cheerful. We’re always happy to guide you if you’re unsure.

Price differences usually come down to quality, freshness and expertise. Cheaper flowers are often mass-produced, older, and designed to a formula. With a professional florist, you’re paying for fresh stock, skilled design, proper conditioning, thoughtful presentation and personal service — all of which make a noticeable difference.

Of course — most people don’t! Just tell us the occasion and anything you know about the recipient, and we’ll take it from there. Our job is to make it easy and stress-free while ensuring the flowers feel right.

Because you’re dealing with real local florists who care about what they create and how it’s delivered. Our flowers are made fresh, not boxed up days in advance, and delivered by people who understand how to handle them properly. The result is better flowers, better service and a far more personal experience.
