More, more, more...

Where to begin?! There have been so many events recently, especially over the last week or so, I’m trying to catch up myself. It’s probably quite surprising to some how busy a small shop in Bushey gets!

So let’s start with the England team! Yes, that's right, the England football team have been staying in a wonderful Hertfordshire hotel while they have been playing in the World Cup Qualifiers. For the duration of their stay they require 3 arrangements for the breakfast buffet table so we arranged this stylish combination of red Gladioli and white Arum Lilies, finished off with a collar of Aspidistra leaves! Smart I think!

How about these 12 table centres for a last minute order on a Saturday afternoon to round off a chaotic week?! Bold, vibrant and seasonal for the Football Association (FA) at The Grove Hotel! A wonderful mix of Brassica, Gerberas, Miss Piggy Roses and both Vanda and Cymbidium Orchids are truly brilliant!

Back to The Grove early doors to set up and deliver 20 Gerbera bowls by 8am and back to the shop for a hard days work! We think they are simple, yet effective for the budget given.

So where else have we been? St James' Restaurant in Bushey for one! For the occasion of an 80th birthday lunch we compiled a selection of vases to host these wonderful roses. Pretty, feminine and fragrant, what more could you ask from a flower?

Hot off the press! Our most recent corporate event has just been set up and delivered to the Amber Suite in The Grove. You may recognise these orange cube arrangements. A short while ago they featured in a previous blog where we had organised sample flower arrangements for a client to choose from…. 

...And the winner is……In all their glory,19 black cube arrangements containing a brilliant  mix of Germini, Roses, Protea, Shammrock Blooms and Hypericum berries, a nod to their company colours.

The weathers taken a turn for the worst and the seasons are changing; there is a definite feel that autumn is in the air. With autumn comes fabulous flowers, wonderfully rich colours, foliage and berries. Come in, say hello and grab yourself a bunch of seasonal flowers! Also keep an eye out for this weekend’s happenings; two fabulous weddings are in the pipeline! I can't wait to get started!

Over and out for now,
