All the flowers are grown organically alongside vegetables, fruit and chickens!

After growing and selling organic vegetables for many years. they realised that the same could be done with flowers, as they accumulate just as many air miles and use even more chemicals.

A wide range of flowers and foliage is grown to ensure all the ingredients for a bouquet throughout the seasons.  Growing this range of plants is good organic practice, promoting healthy soil and preventing pest and disease build up.

Green & Gorgeous, specialise in growing traditional, English country garden flowers which are selected for their colour, scent, vase life, novelty and nostalgic value.  Flowers are picked early in the morning, conditioned and stored in a cold room for at least 24 hours prior to delivery.

Visit the Green & Gorgeous website for more information on availability, farmers markets, bridal consultations, vase hire and seasonal bouquets.
