The woman who works here is super kind. If you're like me and are akward she will leave you to it (if you're picking a bunch from the shop). It's a good price too.
A wonderful hidden gem at the end of the high st, friendly and helpful staff. Lovely selection of fresh flowers. Nice to see an individual florist with a personal touch.

Great customer service, orders always processed swiftly. I've been using Lil LP mailers for over a year now to send collectable vinyl worldwide, and have yet to receive any reports of damage - you're welcome to check out the 100% rating and positive customer feedback on my Discogs store. I could buy cheaper, but I don't want to risk my reputation when sending discs at £100+. These are good sturdy mailers offering excellent value for money, with a positive adhesive closure and plenty of room for extra packing if necessary. I've recommended them to friends who also now use them. I just wish the vinyl I'm buying would always arrive in Lil!
Very good customer service. Although they didn't have exact size for what I needed in a hurry, they came up with a solution and save the day. I'll be using them again and this time they will make exactly what I need with some notice. Many thanks

Tips - Caring for your flowers once they are delivered
Placing your flowers in vase half to two thirds full with lukewarm water, will help closed buds to start opening.
- Be careful when un-wrapping a hand-tied bouquet as it is delivered in a water bubble to keep the flowers fresh.
- Arranging your flowers in cold water should be avoided as this can reduce the their life in the vase.
- Avoid puting flowers in metal or aluminium containers - glass is ideal. Keep your flowers in a cool location, away from draughts, direct heat or sunlight. Arrange once unwrapped
- Your flowers may take up to 24 hours after being placed in water to reach their full potential.
- Strip off all excess foliage and leaves below the water level to reduce any harmful bacteria within the water.
- Bacteria can block the stem and stop the flowers taking up the water.unwrap. Flowers like their stems trimmed. So, trim them, at an angle with a knife (rather than scissors) by an inch or so. When trimming stems, always cut at an angle of roughly 45degrees; this increases the surface area allowing your flowers to absorb more water.
- If a Rose starts to droop at the head, re-cut the stem, wrap the head in paper to support it upright and plunge 5cms of the stem into boiling water for about 30seconds. Cut the stem again and place in deep cold water for two hours.trim
Most orders are accompanied by a sachet of cut flower food which will encourage buds to open and help to prolong the life and beauty of your flowers.

Ensure the floristry foam used in arrangements is moist and topped up daily; this helps to prolong the life and vibrancy of your arrangements.
