But what about the other side of life that we don't openly speak of as a nation?
Death.
We undertake a lot of funeral work as part of a professional florists' repertoire. Fair enough, I will never be able to compete with supermarkets on price for bunches of flowers. And rightly so. That is because the flowers we sell are unusual, bespoke and far better quality. It's just not the same ball game.
But I am hoping there is an area that we do excel in, amongst others and that is heartfelt bespoke funeral flowers. We don't shout about it as that would appear gauche. But we should.
From a simple tied sheaf of wildflowers to an elaborate full length casket spray, garlands, wreaths, letters, we have undertaken countless funeral orders. We have decorated the venue where a memorial service has taken place and provided flowers for ceremonies that celebrate the loved one's life and achievements.
We are specialists in biodegradable funeral tributes wholly suitable for green burials in natural burial grounds as well as being specialists in the more traditional tributes. Let us tailor a tribute to incorporate sentimental flowers and personal memories as a fond and fitting farewell.
