Sundries Essentials
Everything you need to keep your flowers looking their best
1. FloraLife D.C.D. Cleaner

5. FloraLife Finishing Touch Spray
Instantly hydrates blooms, helps prevent dehydration and creates a protective seal. Perfect for bouquets, buttonholes and wedding work. It really works a treat!

All products are in stock now in Sundries Essentials.
Dutch Roses & the Heat
With the heatwave, Dutch roses are having a growth spurt and running smaller than usual this summer. When it's warmer, the rose grows faster than the head can develop — so the bloom doesn't get time to fully form.
Mostly affecting: Avalanche & Sweet Avalanche. This will be flagged on the webshop listings.
Anemones — Out of Season
We've found a grower doing anemones at this time of year, grown in the Golan Heights region. We're trialling these in stock for a few weeks — grab them while they last!
