Our adventures in floristry...

The Making of Valentine's 2019

It's one of the biggest dates in the floristry calendar so we always dedicate a great deal of time to compiling our Valentine's Day offering, enjoying the challenge of creating something to suit all the romantics out there. This year we've created two ranges - the Old Romantic and the New Romantic - and here's a closer look at all the beautiful stems that have gone into making them.

The Old Romantic
No run-of-the-mill Valentine’s day bouquets here, this is our take on the traditional. Old Romantic offers a plethora of scent, shape and textures, featuring a variety of stunning jewel-coloured roses and flowers in scarlet, burgundy, magenta, deep purple and cerise complemented by blue, bottle green and jade berries and foliage.

Stems: Ecuadorian Freedom Rose, Garden Piano Spray Rose, Wanted Heart Rose, Scented Purple Parfumella Rose, Pink Piano Spray Rose, Giant Red Anemone, Dried Amaranthus, Burgundy Ranunculas, Anthurium Candy, Giant Lilac Anemone, Scabious Raspberry Scoop, Pink Astilbe, Burgundy Antirrhinum, Purple Veronica Spray Fountain, Burgundy Astrantia, Burgundy Bloom, Purple Clematis, Viburnum Berries, Red Skimmia, Black berried Ivy, Pistache, Asparagus Fern, Ruscus, Eucalyptus Nicoli, Anthurium Heart Leaf

The New Romantic
Not so gushy? Don’t like to ‘do valentines’. If you’re a regular customer you know only too well that we love clever colour combinations that play with subtleties of colour, texture and tone. New Romantic is all of this and more. This year we’ve toned it back down to feature our very favourite roses from around the globe, a celebration of all things nudey and blush, which are combined in harmony with some of our favourite seasonal fillers and foliages to create a heavenly bouquet sure to make any recipient melt.

Stems: Golden Mustard Rose, Giant Secret Garden Rose, Large Blushing Pink Ranunculas, Peach Carnation, Green Hellebore, Ammi Majus, White Anemone, Peach Anthurium, Brown Double Lisianthus, White Antirrhinum, Pink Astilbe, Scabious Seed Head, Moonlight Delight Wax Flower, Red Scented Skimmia, Chasmanthium Grass, Pussywillow, Pittosporum Ralphi, Senecio Summer-sunshine, Eucalyptus Parvi, Umbrella Fern
