SEASONAL GROWING

Experience the season in flowers!

Growing...

Our planet-friendly, British, seasonal flowers are grown organically, with a much lower carbon footprint than flowers grown overseas or in out-of-season, fossil fuel-heated greenhouses. Plus, it keeps the busy bees happy!

As both growers and florists, we love planting flowers for their diverse qualities — some for elegant shape and texture, others for vibrant colour and scent. Combined with foraged greenery and other whimsical stems, these blooms come together to create stunning, seasonal floral arrangements. While we can work with specific colour palettes, our favourite approach is to choose what’s looking its best on the day, letting the natural beauty of the flowers shine.

Below, you’ll find our flowering calendar, reflecting the British flower growing seasons throughout the year. It’s a helpful guide, but availability always depends on the British weather and what’s flowering with local growers at the time.

TESTIMONIAL

"The flowers I received were absolutely beautiful, rich in colour yet harmonious as a bouquet. They had a wonderful smell and lasted for ages"

Leon Baker

Spring

To welcome the fresh spring season from March through May, we start with stunning specialty daffodils and tulips, alongside ranunculus, hellebores, and anemones. These seasonal blooms are beautifully arranged with forced cherry blossom, catkins, and other seasonal foliage, creating bouquets and arrangements full of colour, texture, and springtime charm

Summer

From June through August, our summer blooms include roses, late ranunculus, alliums, sweet peas, orlaya, hesperis, sweet williams, peonies, nigella, cornflowers, larkspur, ammi, and daucus. Towards the end of July and into August, we also welcome the season’s first dahlias, adding vibrant colour and texture to our summer arrangements.

These seasonal British flowers are perfect for weddings, bouquets, and seasonal floral displays, bringing the natural beauty of summer straight from our fields to your home or event

Autumn

As the season turns to autumn, from September through to the first frosts at the end of October, our seasonal blooms include cosmos, sunflowers, hydrangeas, dahlias, chrysanthemums, zinnias, and — weather permitting — a second flush of roses.

We also begin incorporating dried flowers and autumnal foliage into our seasonal wreaths and arrangements, bringing the rich colours, textures, and natural beauty of autumn into your home or special occasion.

How to care for your blooms

To help your seasonal British flowers last as long as possible, follow these simple steps:

  1. Unwrap and trim – Remove all packaging (compostable) and recut the stems at an angle using sharp scissors, about 1 cm from the base. Place the flowers in a clean vase with cool, fresh water so they can hydrate fully.

  2. Remove leaves below the water line – Any foliage submerged in water can encourage bacterial growth, which shortens the life of your blooms.

  3. Choose the right spot – Keep flowers out of direct sunlight, away from radiators, draughts, and fruit, which emits natural gases that can reduce flower longevity.

  4. Regular maintenance – Remove any dead or dying flowers and fallen foliage from the water to keep it fresh.

  5. Refresh water and trim stems – Change the water every couple of days and recut the stems to prolong freshness.

Following these steps will help your beautiful, seasonal flowers stay vibrant and fragrant for as long as possible.

Winter

For the final season of the year, from November through February, we focus on festive Christmas wreaths and seasonal arrangements. Using a mix of evergreens, late chrysanthemums, and dried flowers such as statice, hydrangeas, and vibrant strawflowers, we create beautiful, seasonal décor for the holidays.

At the same time, we begin planting tulips for the following spring, preparing for the next cycle of seasonal British blooms.
