If you are anything like me, I can assure you that there will be nothing more rewarding than opening the front door to discover beautiful, perfectly freshly cut, delightful seasonal flowers awaiting outside. The perfumed floral aroma, the vibrant shades, the unlimited combinations for a splendid bouquet and arrangement—all this perfectly fits the bill as regards a mood-lifter to make any day beautiful.
That’s exactly what makes Freddie’s Flowers—a lovely family business delivering the passion of British flowers to homes throughout the UK (and now the US) for over 10 years—just magic. Their history encompasses a long journey of humble beginnings, an inexhaustible passion and a never-ending dedication to showing the beauty of nature to as many people as possible.
All this started back in the early 2010s when a young Freddie, the company’s namesake, embarked on a journey with no greater tool other than a tent, a bright yellow milk truck and the determination to spread the joy of flowers in the community. Starting out small from his parents’ garden shed and delivering to customers within the neighborhood every week, Freddie would bring smiles to people’s faces with the unique and thoughtful bouquet he would offer that reflected the season.
The flowers were an instant hit, flying off the shelves (or rather, out of the back of that trusty milk truck) faster than Freddie could keep up. Of course, the milk truck’s top speed of 8mph didn’t do him any favours when it came to making timely deliveries! And when that faithful tent eventually blew away in a gust of wind, it was time for Freddie to get a little more serious about his budding flower business.
Luckily, he had the unfailing support of his family and friends, who never let him down, even when it came to building Freddie’s Flowers. Their assistance enabled him to move from the milk truck to a real delivery van and then build a small but “perfectly formed” team of people who were equally passionate about flowers as he was to cater to the ever-increasing demand.
Looking back to today, Freddie’s Flowers has transformed into a favourite brand, supplying fresh and seasonal flowers to beautiful places across the UK and the US. However, at its core, they are a family-owned business with a tradition of quality, sustainability, and sharing the beauty of nature.
To start off, how does Freddie’s Flowers operate? In that regard, it is similar to having a florist of your own, but without the huge cost. Every week, Freddie himself creates a marvellous seasonal floral arrangement, which he picks the perfect blooms and foliage for in order to express the most essential features of that time of the year. The flowers are then clipped to order, thus maintaining maximum freshness and longevity, before being neatly arranged in the box and shipped to your home.
And the best part? You can stay at home when your flowers are being delivered. You will be able to find the box from Freddie’s delivery heroes, ready to be opened, in a safe, sheltered place, whenever it suits you. You know the moment when you walk into your room and are savoured by the sweet fragrance of flowers. It’s enough to make anyone smile!
When your package gets to you well and safely, this is only the beginning of the real fun. Every arrangement is accompanied by a clear guide with a collection of helpful ideas to ensure your final display is nothing short of amazing. You will know in detail all the types of flowers, the arrangements to get the maximum life of vase and the easy techniques that will make you a professional bouquet arranger. It’s a floral design class, driven by the expertise of a qualified florist right inside your home.
Of course, if the element of surprise isn’t exactly your cup of tea, then you can as well take a peek at your online account to find out what awaits you in your next delivery. That is how you can make your blooms match your style of interior design. So, you will be able to plan in advance and make sure that your floral arrangement suits the events you are planning to host. However, for lots of our customers, the feeling of delight in discovering a new bouquet in their letterbox every week is simply what it is to be a Freddie’s Flowers customer.
I wish I could describe how different they are from an ordinary bouquet. Whether it is roses, hyacinths, or dahlias, they carefully pick and cut the flowers to order, guaranteeing their capacity to last for a long time. In fact, if you comply with the care instructions, your flowers will often last for more than two weeks, which just shows how qualitative they are.
Still, what makes Freddie’s Flowers unique is not only about creating magnificent flowers but also about rekindling the love for nature and the enjoyment of the English country garden. Their floral designs are 100% authentic by nature, with a romantic, traditional feel that uses only the most seasonal flowers and foliage arranged in a way that can be enjoyed from all angles. The show is a real treat for all of the five senses.
Moreover, Freddie’s Flowers is not only dealing with the local farmers but also environmental sustainability by minimising pollution as much as they can. The electric power of their delivery vans and their constant search for more efficient ways to reduce carbon footprints and give a boost to British horticulture are what make the difference for them.
The result is that if you’re seeking to expand your horizons and add a little more happiness and natural beauty to your life, why don’t you give Freddie’s Flowers a chance? Moreover, with the subscription option, convenient online account management, and unequalled customer service, you would never have a hard time bringing the charm of the English countryside to your home.
So, what are you waiting for? It’s time to ditch the supermarket flowers and embrace the beauty of the English country garden with Freddie’s Flowers. Treat yourself (or that special someone in your life) to a little bit of floral magic today. Your home and your heart will thank you.
