West End Flowers

This week is Industry Week at college with various trips and events on offer. Today we went on a day trip to London to visit some top West End florists.

First up, Wild At Heart on the Pimlico Road

The florists were working outside when we arrived on some beautiful handtied bouquets. The flowers are also on display out front.

Next we walked to Neill Strain in Belgravia. Such a beautiful and stylish boutique. It reminded me a lot of the flower shops in Paris.

After a lunch break on Oxford Street we made our way to Marylebone to Jane Packer.

I loved these bud vases so decided to treat myself :-) I also bought two beautiful roses.

I had a really nice day in London today and it gave me lots of food for thought about the style of shop I want to have one day.
