It Takes Two...
Such a lovely time of year for a wedding... Two brides... Same date... The flowers couldn't be more different! Tina had gorgeous royal blue bridesmaids dresses and chose funky Acapulco Gerbera and Cherry Brandy Roses to compliment her day whilst Marion had an elegant style with sleek Calla Lilies and large pedestals!

Pinky Perfect...
Pink Intuition Roses!!!!! Fabulous and wonderful to work with, the Columbian Rose has an incredible shelf life! We had an experiment in the shop to see how long they lasted... over two weeks and they still looked pretty good! We used them with wedding work last weekend and were definitely impressed with the quality and vibrancy of the colour!!

Compliementary colours... Mango Callas, Prima Donna Rose, Blue Thistle and peach Hpericum berries. With a summer twist of tourquise ribbon to match the bridesmaids dresses!!
Summer in a bouquet... For a twist in Autumn, the addition of brown Hypericum Berries, Oak leaves and perhaps some Choco Anthuriums instead of the Peony Roses could look fabulous with rust or royal blue colour dresses for a stylish wedding...

Gorgeous Gardenia...
I'm thinking wedding table centres... Gifts... For the home... Gardenia can be used almost anywhere! It had a delicate fragrance and the leaves are beautiful when they're shined up and glossy. The flowers look like they're made out of marzipan... sweet eh?

Fashion Jewellery!
I bought some amazing jewellery stands on Ebay last week & they work a treat when showing off our new jewellery pieces! They're great as an add-on to bouquets and arrangements, as gifts or even if you fancy a little treat for yourself! They're competitively priced, not over priced :-) New lines added weekly!!

Plant it!
Hot hot house plants are the latest addition to the shop floor!! As the temperature heats up foliage house plants are becoming an alternative to cut flowers. Varieties like the Cast Iron Aspidistra plant are so hard to kill even the most heavy handed and busy people will have no problem taking care of them! We also have various succulents, Aloe Vera, Ficus and Peace Lilies... Not to mention a few exotics in stock!! Very reasonable prices from £2.99!!

Dolce Vita!
What a classy and elegant name for such a beautiful rose. We had a beautiful wedding at the weekend with these roses and for contrast we sided them with Mimi Eden spray roses and diamanté! A winning combination for a summer wedding!
