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.
Named for the street where we started, and the most romantic thing we make. Scented English garden roses - this month the last flush of Olivia Austin and Koko Loko from a Sussex rose field - with antique-pink hydrangea heads, sweet-scented stock and trailing jasmine.
Garden roses open fast and wide, so we deliver them in tight bud: give them a day and they will fill the room. We tie them a little looser than our other bouquets, so they look picked rather than arranged.

Rated 5.0 out of 5 Rated 5.0 out of 5 Ordered at 11, delivered by 3
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.
Rated 4.0 out of 5 Beautiful, travelled well by courier
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.
Rated 5.0 out of 5 Our wedding, exactly as we pictured it
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.
