What is a flower wholesaler?
A flower wholesaler sources flowers, plants, and sundries from locally grown and world markets for delivery to florists, retail stores, hotels and more. Wholesalers don’t typically work with members of the public and instead work with retail and private clients to fulfil high-volume orders. Florists can benefit from working with flower wholesalers as they provide a huge amount of support for all seasons. This includes long-established relationships with suppliers across the world which means wholesalers can cater to a variety of requirements.
Where do our flowers come from?
We pride ourselves on catering for a range of florists and offer a selection of flower types from across the globe. We purchase our flowers daily from Dutch auctions which guarantee beautifully fresh blooms. We also have regular deliveries during the week from other parts of the world including South America, South Africa, Italy, Asia and Israel. Additionally, we support the UK industry by purchasing English stock throughout the year.
How are flower types stored?
We take great care to preserve the quality and freshness of our blooms. To do this, our flowers and plants are stored in large, refrigerated rooms and other chilled spaces. Of course, flowers and plants are time-sensitive, which means that they won’t be in these spaces long before supply and delivery are arranged. All flower types are looked after with exceptional care to ensure quality, fragrance, and freshness.
What are popular flower types?
We work to supply and deliver a selection of flower types to florists, retail clients, hotels and more every single day. Drawing on more than 10 years of experience, here are some popular flower types that we recommend stocking up on all year round…
Roses
Roses, particularly red roses, are some of the most popular flowers in the world. Roses are available in a variety of colours including red, pink, white, ivory, peach, lavender and more. The red rose is the national emblem of England and is a symbol of love.
Lilies
Lilies originated in China in the middle ages and are symbols of purity and innocence. They flower until late autumn and are available in over 100 different species. This beautifully fragrant flower is popular for home decoration.
Freesias
Freesias are native to South Africa where they are winter flowering plants. However, they are available all year round elsewhere and spring is their peak time. They come in a choice of colours including yellow, red, pink, and black.
Carnations
Carnations are available all year round which makes them a popular choice for florists. Carnations boast long-lasting freshness and a heavenly fragrance which only add to their popularity throughout the year.
Tulips
Tulips, mostly associated with Holland, are popular springtime flowers and come in a plethora of colours except blue and true black. Tulips symbolise love and are ideal to give to someone with whom you have deep, unconditional love.
