Traditional gift-wrapped bouquets
The classic florist's bouquet with flowers arranged flat for maximum visual impact and gift-wrapped to provide a beautiful gift. Ideal for anyone who likes to arrange their own flowers or for when only a really big armful will say what you want.
Continental hand tied bouquets
These bouquets are prearranged by the florist in a circular fashion and are left bare-stemmed as is more traditional in continental Europe. They just need to have their stems trimmed and be dropped into a favourite vase or container for amazing instant impact. We often wrap these bouquets in bamboo holders rather than cellophane to give a stylish and natural look.
Aqua-packed bouquets
Hand tied bouquets can also be aqua-packed (delivered in their own water), which is ideal for gifts that may otherwise be out of water for some time, e.g. delivered to a workplace. These can be delivered either wrapped in just in cellophane or in an elegant presentation box. The advantage of the gift box is that it makes an instant vase of flowers and the recipient doesn't need to worry about the flowers for days other than giving them a splash of water. Cellophane wrapped hand tied bouquets look better if they are unwrapped and put into a vase, but in this style we are able to leave the stems slightly longer for a larger arrangement.
Arrangements
We use the term arrangements to refer to any floral display created in florists foam. Using foam allows the flowers to continue to drink but enables the florist to create more stylised and artistic pieces than is possible with traditional gift bouquets. There are many different types of foam arrangement, including:
- Line arrangements are elegant modern arrangements using a small number of choice flowers with complementary foliages. These are pefect for anyone with a very contemporary style and often work out economically because of the small number of focal flowers that are used.
- Table centres come in a wide range of forms and styles depending on your needs. They can range from stylish cascading arrangements in tall vases for larger venues to small posies or long and low arrangements for a family dining table.
- Basket arrangements remain a very popular choice for both young and old recipients alike. These don't have to be traditional country style baskets with a mass of mixed flowers - there are all kinds of ways we can add a contemporary twist to the humble basket arrangement.
Vase arrangements
Vase arrangements (although of course these aren't in foam) are also a perennial favourite and if given as a gift, there is a lasting keepsake for the recipient as well.
