In the decade since New Covent Garden Flower Market first launched British Flowers Week in June 2013, the annual campaign has shone a spotlight on the British cut flower industry, raising the profile of growers, wholesalers and the florists who work with UK-grown flowers.

Now, New Covent Garden Flower Market has decided it’s time to hand the mantle of British Flowers Week to Flowers from the Farm, the industry body promoting small-scale growers of local, seasonal British cut flowers. Flowers from the Farm, with a membership of more than 1000 flower businesses across the UK, is uniquely placed to lead the industry-wide campaign to increase the share of the UK market occupied by flowers grown in this country. Flowers from the Farm has announced that British Flowers Week 2024 will take place on 3rd – 9th June with the theme of…

Igniting the Passion for British Cut Flowers

Your first reaction on receiving a bouquet of flowers is, naturally enough, to bury your nose in them and to inhale. Delicious scent is what we all expect but all too often we are disappointed. This is because most commercial flowers will have been bred to withstand the rigours of international shipping and mass production rather than to possess intoxicating fragrance. Today, an estimated 90% of the flowers sold through florists, supermarkets and wholesalers are imported not just from Holland but flown in from growers as far afield as Ecuador, Colombia, Kenya and even Ethiopia.

Now, dip your nose into a beautiful bouquet of fresh cut flowers grown by your local British flower farmer, and the experience is altogether different. You will be enveloped in a heady concoction of delicious fragrances, charmed by their natural, soft beauty and fascinated by their variety. When you see or smell a British flower bouquet, you can be transported by fond, childhood memories of flower-filled gardens.

Flowers grown by your local flower farmer will be freshly picked and locally delivered, giving you flowers as fresh as possible and saving thousands of travel miles. Each individual flower will have the natural, unique, informal beauty that can only come from small-scale, local production. Your local flower farmer grows with the seasons and is motivated by the excitement of harvesting the first of the sweet peas, dahlias, garden roses, anemones, larkspur, snapdragons and cornflowers rather than by predictable, year-round crops.

I am proud to be a member of Flowers from the farm, and proud to grow beautiful scented garden flowers.
