🧡 🧡 GOLDEN ILEX 🧡🧡
I couldn’t leave this in Holland 😍, this variety of golden ilex soooo beautiful and very long lasting.
I’ve mixed it with eucalyptus this morning in bunches ready to pick up and go in our John street shop.
They’ll be perfect in a vase in the house for the weekend.

Flower prep….they actually look so good here that I don’t want to move them. Number 1 child is in New York, number 2 is in Madrid so to stop myself crashing the kids tracking app I’m keeping busy distracting myself with a home glow up ✨

Coming home to see these beautiful blooms 😍 When I do flowers for my home I always choose one or two of my favourites (this week it’s peony) something that will last, and then some artificial flowers to add in a bit of volume, that way I can keep using these all summer mixed in with other fresh flowers 🌷

We have a job opportunity in our beautiful greenhouses. I’m looking for someone enthusiastic who enjoys being in the outdoors as we do work in all weathers. You will be involved in all aspects of the growing process so prior experience is required. You will be serving our incredible customers so good social skills are essential and a driving license would be great so you can top up our shop with fresh plants and take out the occasional deliveries.
Things to be aware of- it’s a physical job so you need to be fit and used to being on your feet all day.
The greenhouses can get warm so if you suffer in the heat then maybe it’s not for you.
LOVE these colours 😍
Autumn door wreath ready for a birthday gift today. We can make wreaths in any colour scheme to match your decor, they make a great gift for others but also a nice treat for to you too 😉. Drop me a message or give us a call if you want us to make one for you xx
I hope you have a wonderful start to your day too- to me work doesn’t get much better 👌. #greenhouse #shopdog #gorgeousgriff #plants #familybusiness
✂️ ✂️✂️✂️WE ARE HIRING ✂️✂️✂️✂️
Nearly everyday someone says to me “oh I always wanted to be a florist!” Now here is your chance.
I’m looking for someone to join my team for the long run, I’m not after someone to fill in just for busy times I’m looking long term, someone to join our work family.
I want to help someone forge a satisfying career in floristry. It really is a beautiful, lovely, creative job that is not always easy but gives a lot of satisfaction.
You will need to be able to work weekends, be confident with customers and computers and also have a creative side.
It is a physically demanding job role with lots of lifting and it can be chilly at times, you will need to think on your feet and also be keen to learn the whole world of plants and floristry.
Please, please share this and tag your creative friends in, it really is a lovely job and I’m looking for THE ONE who wants to make flowers their new life 🌸✂️

⭐️It’s a wrap! 20 workshops of 2022 are done⭐️
I just wanted to say a huge thank you to all our AMAZING customers who came to make their Christmas wreaths with us this year.
It means so much to my mum and I that so many of you come back each year and that you bring more and more friends and family to enjoy your evening with.
It is also great to see first timers too, I hope you all had as good a time as we do!
I also want to thank my brilliant team, a lot of time goes into organising the workshops so without my fantastic girls (and joe) the workshops would never run so smoothly.
I am one very lucky girl, thanks again everyone, Merry Christmas🎄.

Not long to go until our Christmas workshops 2022 get underway- if you haven’t booked your space yet I still have some sessions with some availability, so why not get some friends together and have a creative night out!
Guttridges is a 3rd generation florists. Flowers and customer service are our passion. I’m one of the lucky one who gets to play with flowers every day, from ordering flowers direct from growers and suppliers in Holland and across U.K to creating beautiful bouquets for weddings, events or birthdays etc.
At Guttridges we have a team of like minded dedicated people who we split between our different premises. We are also fortunate enough to have our own nursery - a mini garden centre where we grow our own plants, flowers and foliage which we use in our day to day floristry and also supply local hotels, venues and councils with plants and hanging baskets.
We offer a personal delivery service which covers the majority of South Wales and also work in conjunction with a courier or other florists to deliver your flowers nationally or internationally.
The biggest advantage of ordering flowers direct from a small family company like ourselves compared to an internet order company is that not only do we care about you and the recipient but also we would give great value for money and a personal, professional service. We can be easily contacted and will respond immediately to any concerns or issues.
With over 150 years of experience between us we hold a number of workshops throughout the year where you are welcome to come and join us to create something fabulous! Its always a very informal relaxed time where we tell you stories of the trials and tribulations of a local florist and a few of our experiences at Chelsea flower show and of course our television debut where we had comedian Rhod Gilbert come to do his show “Work Experience”
We currently have two shops in the Porthcawl area which you can visit and we are currently looking to re locate our Bridgend store.
