You all have been keeping me incredibly busy - like a tsunami! šš My phone even died amidst the chaos! With so much happening, I didn't even have the chance to announce that the shop is open. Keeley's reaction to the bustling schedule was quite amusing. To ensure we're prepared for the Easter rush š£, we've opened up dates for the following weeks and informed our growers accordingly.

Tulips
This week, we have a delightful selection of tulips! We welcome back Fabio, a fringed yellow-red bicolour. The highly anticipated Columbus peony tulip will be available towards the middle or end of the week - a perfect choice if the sun decides to shine! One of my seasonal favourites, Supermodel on the bulb, undergoes three beautiful transformations as she matures, offering incredible value. Don't miss out on Purple Crystal (OTB only) and our striking bicolour Easter mix! Combine these blooms with twisted willow and a few feathers for a gorgeous arrangement. Columbus peony tulip will be available next week.
Wedding Flowers
Wedding season is now in full swing! Browse our collection of Ecuadorian wedding roses, including Cream Vendela, Quicksand, Pink Mondial, and Amnesia. Should you require special mixes for your wedding roses, please ensure your order is placed at least 10 days in advance.
Plants
I managed to source some vibrant British-grown plants for next week, perfect for adding a splash of Easter colour. A big thank you to those who entrusted me as their "personal plant shopper." I truly enjoy filling trolleys with beautiful plants, and I know you'll be delighted when they arrive. You may even find a surprise on your trolley this week!
Ranunculus
As for Ranunculus, those who ordered early are truly fortunate! Although we're experiencing some dull days during this first week, more stock will be available soon. I've created a reserve list for the next batch, with updates scheduled for tomorrow. We also have a limited supply of "shorties" (around 30cm) with enormous heads, perfect for table runners, bud vases, or funeral arrangements. To ensure 100% crop utilisation, simply add a note to your order to secure a fantastic deal on these stunning flowers!Ā
Happy Easter
"Save the earth - the only planet with chocolate!"
Keep calm and carry on flowering!Ā š£š·
