Acknowledged as the ‘little black book’ of the very best British and Irish florists Something Special Flowers were awarded the prestigious accolade last week. Owners Stephen and Jillian Page described themselves as delighted and excited for the new designs and creations which lay ahead.

No-one can buy their way into the Guide. To be part of it, florists undergo a rigorous evaluation process before being approved.

Caroline said, “You can buy flowers virtually anywhere these days. But nothing really beats the experience of receiving fabulous flowers from a truly bespoke florist and without it costing an arm or a leg. The Good Florist Guide is my way of sharing all that is good about floristry. It allows consumers to know that the florist they use is able and willing to go the extra mile and make all their purchases, big or small, truly special.”
