Best ethical flowers by post?

I want to send flowers to DMil, We usually use Scilly Flowers but I wanted something different, not narcissi.

They're very eco conscious, UK grown flowers would be great, and they're in the SW so localish flowers would be ideal.

Try The Flower Farmer, Georgie Newbury. I think she grows a lot of her own.

Sorry, Georgie is Common Farm Flowers!

Petalon are good, they used to deliver by bicycle in London but have recently moved to Cornwall to grow their own. They donate to bee conservation and plant a tree for every 100 bouquets sent. Lovely flowers hessian wrapped, no plastic !

Sahara I sent a Petalon bouquet and I'm told that it's beautiful. We chose the larger size and DH (who is there now that DMil is back home from hospital) says the smaller size would have been quite small. Thanks for the recommendation!

Evolve flowers are very good, passionate about U.K. blooms and environmental impact.

Evolve also look great, will keep them in mind, thanks. As a family we seem to send each other a lot of flowers, it’s good to have some recommendations.
