There are some simple ways to ensure that you get the most life from your flowers. Always cut the stems before you put them in water and keep the leaves above the water level by stripping them back at the base.
The water should be changed when it starts to look unclean, say every 2-3 days. Keep your flowers out of direct sunlight and you will be on the way to keeping your flowers fresh.
Just like fruit and vegetables and seafoods and meats, the prices of flowers varies due to the seasons and supply and demand. Generally, we will then adjust our prices to reflect this. Sometimes it will result in us buying less of the flower if it has gone up to a level which we don’t feel represents value and we will just stock a small amount in the event that someone really loves that flower. Conversely, where there is plenty of a particular flower we may purchase a significant amount and offer it in our weekly Fresh Market Bunch.
Unfortunately, COVID-19 has had a huge impact on the availability and prices of flowers, reducing the availability and increasing the price.
That’s easy. Fill in the appointment form in the Weddings Section.. We’ll be in touch to arrange a good time to meet or have a phone meeting if needed. Appointments are held during the week and on Saturdays and typically we have one face to face meeting and then finalise all the details four weeks prior to your wedding. To secure us as your wedding florist involves a payment of a 30% of your quote.
