- Cut this morning, not last week
- Same-day delivery until 14:00
- Weddings, funerals, Tuesdays
We buy at the flower market four mornings a week, and we tell you what is in season rather than what is in the catalogue.
Hand-tied bouquets from £28, delivered within eight miles the same day if you order before 14:00.
Weddings booked twelve months out, funerals turned round in a morning — both matter, and we treat them that way.
Team bios
Rosalind Ferrier — Owner & lead florist
Rosalind has been buying at the market for twenty-three years and can spot a two-day-old rose from across a room. She does every wedding consultation herself. She is entirely unsentimental about flowers and completely sentimental about the people buying them.
Kacper Wójcik — Florist
Kacper trained as a horticulturist before he trained as a florist, which is why he can tell you exactly why your hydrangea wilted. He makes the funeral work, quietly and quickly, and he is the reason the conditioning is done properly every single day.
Amara Nwachukwu — Weddings & events
Amara runs the wedding diary, the timings and the van on the day, which means she has driven a flower arch across town at 6:00 more than once. She keeps a folder on every couple’s colours and has not yet lost a buttonhole.
Quotes
“My mother’s funeral was on a Tuesday and I rang at ten past eight that morning, in pieces. They said “tell us her favourite colour” and it was there by twelve. I will not forget it.”
Susan Merrilees, Funeral flowers
“I asked for peonies for an October wedding and Rosalind talked me out of them in the kindest possible way. What we got instead was better and cost 20% less. She was completely right!”
Freya Lindholm, Married in October
“The subscription has arrived every Monday morning for two years and the reception desk looks different every week. Clients comment on it constantly. Best £35 this office spends.”
Duncan Ayers, Office subscription
FAQ answers
How long will my flowers last?
Nine or ten days for a hand-tied in season, less for anything with an open bloom like a peony or a garden rose. Change the water every second day, cut 2 cm off the stems at an angle, and keep them away from the windowsill and the fruit bowl — ripening fruit is what kills them.
Can I order for the same day?
Yes, before 14:00 for delivery within eight miles that afternoon. Funerals we will do at shorter notice than that, so ring rather than ordering online and tell us the service time. On Sundays we deliver only for funerals and hospitals.
How far ahead do I book a wedding?
Most couples book nine to twelve months out, and since we take only one wedding per weekend the popular Saturdays in June and September go first. A £250 deposit holds the date. If you are already at four months, still ring — there is often a gap.
Do you only use seasonal flowers?
Wherever we can, and we tell you honestly when something is not. Around 70% of what we sell between May and October is grown within the region. In midwinter that figure drops, because a field in January has very little in it, and we lean on foliage, berries and bulbs instead.
Closing lines
The shop is open 8:00–17:30 from Monday to Saturday and 9:00–13:00 on Sunday, though somebody is here from 6:00 on market days and will happily sell you flowers through the back door if you knock.
If you do not know what to send, ring and describe the situation rather than choosing from photographs. It is a two-minute conversation, and it is the reason people come back to us for the next twenty years.
