flowers: We realised that there was a huge void for florists who wanted to get their hands on British flowers, she told The Independent on Sunday, according to The Independent. There were so few routes to get the flowers to the florists. Next month, the third annual British Flowers Week, an event set up by New Covent Garden Flower Market, will fly the flag at events held around the UK. Tracey Griffin, a florist and co-founder of Flori Smart, an online marketplace supplying flowers mainly sourced from Dutch exporters, helped to set up Flora Britain. Now, there will be all these different varieties in one place. Delphiniums are carried on long, elegant stems, and colours range from rich, deep blue to hot pinks and pure white The supermarkets currently have a 60 per cent share of the cut-flower market, according to Mintel, with 70 per cent of customers buying flowers as a gift rather than for themselves. Florists will be able to fill their boots as they’ve never done before.
