Hello everybody. Hope everyone had a nice weekend🍭

Just to make people aware in the shop we are noticing same day orders and requests for specific items has risen by 75%!

Unfortunatley as the flowers are delivered from Holland we do need 24-48hour notice for this. Level of trade is incredibly unpredictable at the moment, which makes buying a challenge as we are dealing with perishable goods!

We do not have access to additional stock throughout the day!☹️

We are asking, wherever possible, that you pre order. Which will help us to fulfill your specific requirements. You are welcome to come in to the shop, order online or through the telephone 🌻

WE ARE A MICRO BUSINESS….💚💚💚💚💚

and let me tell you, business is tough.
REALLY tough.

We are still here, with a much MUCH smaller team than ever. And as a result, some days I have to close up for half an hour and deliver the flower deliveries myself. We don’t have a stocked flower bench anymore. Especially in this heat. Long gone are the days when we could afford to stock a fabulous flower bench full of exotic fabulous blooms ‘just in case’.

We as business owners have all the usual pressures of making sure we pay rents, rates and that bloody place that his majesty puts his name to….. HMRC😬😬😬 as well as staff AND ourselves.

Nobody is gonna wave a magic wand and suddenly increase our turn over and pay ourselves more money, and with interest rates rising monthly, I’m sure I’m not the only one who’s mortgage repayments alone have over doubled in the last year. Then there’s all the usual bills on top. It’s hard for everyone !!

So this isn’t a moaning whining post, we chose to open our businesses and keep going through covid…. Many ceased….. but more of a THANKYOU for your support over the last 15 years and THANKYOU in advance for the next 15.
I hope ! 🤪 xx

PLEASE keep supporting your local small businesses !!!

“A woman is the full circle. Within her is the power to create, nurture and transform.” ✨

This week, let’s thank every woman in our life, show them some love, and we celebrate every woman on the planet. Just by being in our world, women bring so much love and beauty, and it makes everyone a little bit happier. 👩💕

Happy Women's Week to all the incredible women! Shine on.... Not just today but every day! 💐

A wonderful Monday to everybody! Let's hope you have another fantastic week ahead of you. ⛅

Our inspiring quote for today is from American Poet Robert Frost. ✨

“Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one’s definition of your life; define yourself.”

Your actions are determined by how you define yourself. If you make it a rule that you will see your goals through no matter what, you will never give up, even when things get tough and you can't see a way out. When it's cold and rainy outside and you don't want to exercise, but you know you're the type who works out no matter what, you'll put your shoes on and go for a run. 💪🏃

If you value integrity above all else, you'll know that anything you've done in the past has been consistent with your values. 💕

Are you looking to go outside and take a look at this year’s wonderful flower shows? 😮🌺

Here are three of the best flower shows you should look out for! ✨

🌼 RHS Chelsea Flower Show

The RHS Chelsea Flower Show is the most famous and prestigious event of its kind. This year, wild vegetation and naturalistic spaces will be the focus. Plants that support biodiversity, such as wildlife-friendly hawthorn, hazel, and woodland trees like crab apple and sweet chestnut, will be urged to be used by garden designers.

🌼 Blenheim Palace Flower Show

Blenheim Palace is stunning all year, but especially so when it hosts its annual flower exhibit. Explore exhibition gardens, shop the Outdoor Plant Village, and get inspired on Floral Street - moreover, horticultural experts will be on hand to answer all of your burning gardening questions.

🌼 Chorley Flower Show

Chorley Flower Show, a relatively new addition to the floristry events calendar, will return to Astley Hall in 2022 for its seventh edition. The Mayflower 400 garden, which included native British and American plants such as an oak tree and a maple tree, was the centrepiece for 2021. Meanwhile, a gardening theatre presents demonstrations by prominent gardeners.

Going on that first date? 👀💕

Bringing a bouquet of flowers is one sure way to make a positive impression from the person you are asking out on, as it instantly expresses the way you feel about that person. 👫

Here are four of the best blooms YOU should bring for the first date!

🌷 Carnations

You might want to give Carnations to your first date to tell them you are fascinated with them and the new relationship. Light red carnations are best for the first date as they symbolize admiration. If you already know the date well, you can give dark red carnation which symbolizes deep love and affection.

🌷 Gardenia

Gardenia is a white flower with a heavy fragrance. The flower of gardenia symbolizes purity and joy. You can give gardenia to convey a deep old fashioned old on a first date.

🌷 Daffodils

Daffodil is a common flower to give to someone you like in the Victorian era as it is prohibited to put the feelings into word. It is also believed that giving daffodils will bring 12 months of happiness to the recipient. As an added bonus, they look and smell good.

🌷 Aster
Pink asters symbolize love while red asters symbolize devotion. The symbol love became associated with the aster flower after it was put on the altars of the Greek gods according to legend. Therefore, if you send aster, it will convey the message “Take Care of Yourself for Me”. It is a romantic way of expressing affection to your date.

Another marvellous Monday to everybody reading this! 😊 💕

As we look forward to do our very best this week, let us take a step back and read today’s inspiring quote by singer and songwriter, Beyoncé Giselle Knowles-Carter! ✨

“Never let success go to your head, never let failure get to your heart.”

Life comes with its ups and downs. There are times when we succeed, and there are also times where we experience failure. 👍

When we succeed, we feel very proud of ourselves that sometimes, we often lose every sense of humility. We might feel that we are superior to everyone else, and such attitude really hurts, not only our personalities, but also those around us. The opposite is also true, as when we fail, we often feel like blaming ourselves for not succeeding. 😓 👎

We should always remember to maintain a sense of humility, and we should always remember to thank those who helped us along the way. When life’s lessons come to us in the form of failure, we must always take it as a lesson to be learned and move on. 🚶
