Modern handtie

These front facing modern hand ties are becoming very popular, delivered in an attractive box like above you don't even need a vase to display them.

Pink, green and blue hand tie

I love the mix of lime pink and blue, the pussy willow, monkshood and dill add texture to the classic pink roses and lillies.

Yellow and orange hand tie

Cheerful mix of orange and yellow, this happy bunch will brighten your day.

White and lilac basket

Some people love to arrange flowers but for those that don't, or can't, a pretty basket of lilac and white scented flowers make a lovely display, keep topped up with fresh water.

In the pink

A hand tied for those who love pink.

Trug of sping cheer

These yellow miniture daffodills look so sweet it the white trug, a reminder that spring is round the corner.

Vase of white parrot tulips and pink renunculas

For those who love tulips, this vase of best dutch white parrot tulips with pink renunculas would make a perfect spring gift.

Exotic modern flower arrangement

We have noticed that floral arrangments in this style are becoming more and more popular, this one believe it or not is silk, so many people have picked it up, only to see on closer inspection it's silk flowers.
