It's begining to look a lot like Christmas!
Ok so not long to go now. In fact its only 38 days!
So we've started getting ready here at the shop. Whats our favourite part of Christmas in the shop? The Christmas Windows! We may have only just completed this years but you can guarantee that all through the season we'll be planning next years themes already!
We have two windows to the shop front. A smaller window which we tend to always use a fresh flower display and then the larger window which we display artificials, vases etc.
We always have a theme for each window and this years Christmas theme was Ice and Icy blues! The small window we created a "snow cave" with floating glittered roses and lots of other bling. The large window's main feature is our hand made iceberg which is home to a polar bear. Also, the poor snowman seems to have floated away on a piece of floating ice!

Reiss Gardening club - Christmas demonstration
On Tuesday 3rd November Amanda was asked to do a demonstration for the Reiss Gardening Club. Never turning down the chance to show off new designs and unusual flower choices She created 3 different arrangements to the club. All of which can be re-created for use at home or as presents. The champagne bottle decoration proved to be very popular with the audience with several of the club members already planning how they can decorate their own.

Here, there and everywhere.
Although we are based in the coastal town of Wick in the beautifully scenic county of Caithness we can deliver flowers worldwide.
Local deliveries are hand delivered by our staff. We cover all of Caithness and some parts of Sutherland too!
Do you often send flowers down south to your friends and relations? We offer a delivery service that guarantees you get what you have ordered. With specially designed packaging and delivery we make the flowers here in the shop, and the recipient ( anywhere on mainland UK ) receives them the very next morning. Not only can you pick exactly what you want in the bouquet, you can also make it more personal by actually writing the card yourself!
For worldwide deliveries we are members of Direct 2 Florist and Florist 2 Florist. This gives you the option to send flowers anywhere in the world.
So where ever you are looking to send flowers to, we are definitely the people to talk to!
