Twelve days from the dahlias
I followed the care card to the letter - re-cut every two days, fresh water - and the Café au Lait dahlias lasted twelve days. The box is entirely paper and cardboard, which matters to me.

A gift that keeps arriving. The Flower Almanac sends one Classic seasonal bouquet a month for the length you choose, starting on the date you pick - so a twelve-month almanac follows the whole British flower year, from Cornish narcissi in February to Christmas wreath foliage in December.
We post a hand-lettered almanac card to announce the gift, and each delivery comes with its own care card and a grower’s note. Prices shown are for three months; longer almanacs are charged at the same monthly rate with the gift saving applied.
Hand-delivered by our own cargo bikes and electric vans across London Zones 1-6, Tuesday to Saturday - order by 1pm for same-day delivery. Next-day courier to the rest of mainland UK for £7.95. Wrapped in compostable paper with a care card and a sachet of flower food; no plastic, no floral foam.

Sent a Classic Hackney to my mum on her birthday at short notice. The rider texted a photo on delivery and the handwritten card was lovely. It looked like an armful from a garden, not a supermarket.
Outside London so it came next day by courier - still perfectly fresh in its water pouch. One star off only because the Deluxe was a little smaller than I imagined; the stem counts on the size guide are accurate though.
Hattie walked us round the dahlia field in August and built everything from what was in flower that week. No foam, nothing flown in, and they pressed our leftover stems into a frame for us.
