We know you might be reading this in October, which means we are technically coming in early with a Christmas present idea.
But some gifts are worth thinking about ahead of time.
If there’s someone you really want to spoil this Christmas, a flower subscription turns one thoughtful gift into something they can keep looking forward to throughout the year, with every delivery bringing another little reminder that they’re loved.
Because this isn’t really one gift.
It’s fresh flowers arriving in January, when Christmas already feels a long way behind you. It’s a beautiful seasonal arrangement turning up in March, when you’re ready for some colour in the home again, and something completely different again as winter comes back around.
It’s the gift that literally keeps showing up, surprising them with your thoughtfulness, time and again. And we rather love that.
A gift that changes with the seasons
One of our favourite things about any of our flower subscriptions is that no two deliveries ever feel the same.
We always work with the best seasonal flowers available to us at the time, so the arrangements naturally change as the year moves on.
It means the recipient isn’t simply getting “flowers”. They’re getting something that reflects what is looking its best at that particular moment, chosen and arranged by our florists here in Didsbury.
And every time we turn up at their door it’s another beautiful surprise, that reminds them of you.
For the person who loves arranging flowers themselves
Some people genuinely enjoy the whole ritual of flowers.
They like trimming stems at the sink, choosing the right vase, splitting a bunch between different rooms and being a bit creative.
For them, Simply Stems is the perfect option.
We choose the best seasonal flowers for each delivery and send them beautifully wrapped with the stems left long, giving the recipient plenty of flexibility to arrange them however they like.
Simply Stems starts from £25 and can be delivered weekly, fortnightly or monthly, so it works just as well as a regular little treat as it does a longer-term gift.
For the person who simply wants beautiful flowers to arrive
If the pleasure is more about enjoying the flowers than arranging them, our Florist Choice Hand-Tied Bouquet takes care of that part for them.
Each bouquet is designed by our florists using the best seasonal stems available, so the recipient gets something beautiful, balanced and completely ready to enjoy.
Subscriptions start from £45, with weekly, fortnightly or monthly delivery options and different bouquet sizes depending on how much of a statement you want to make.
It’s the perfect choice for someone who dreams about a home full of flowers but never thinks about treating themselves in this way. Mums we’re looking at you…
For the person who wants absolutely everything done for them
Then there is the Florist Choice Vase Design.
This is the option for maximum impact and minimum effort.
The flowers arrive already designed in the vase, so there is no searching for something the right size, no trimming and rearranging, and no wondering whether they have made it look quite right.
They simply place it where they want it and enjoy it.
Subscriptions start from £55 and, again, can be delivered weekly, fortnightly or monthly.
This is a lovely Christmas gift for someone who really values having flowers in their home but likes them to be fuss-free!
Six months of flowers, or a whole year
If you’re looking for something that feels like a proper long-term gift, we also offer six and twelve month flower packages.
Our six-month option starts from £225 and gives the recipient a seasonal bouquet every month. You purchase five bouquets and we give you the sixth absolutely free, and within the M20 postcode area you only pay one delivery charge for the full six months.
For an even bigger gesture, our twelve-month package starts from £450. You purchase ten bouquets, receive two free, and once again only pay one delivery charge within M20.
It’s flowers promised way beyond Christmas Day.
Thoughtful doesn’t have to mean complicated
You can choose the frequency that works best, whether that’s flowers delivered every week, every fortnight or once a month.
And, as your local florist we can be as flexible as you need us to be. Need to put your subscription on hold temporarily, change the delivery date or cancel your subscription, we’re just at the end of the phone.
A little more than a Christmas present
Sometimes the best gifts are not things people keep forever. Sometimes they are things people get to enjoy, notice and look forward to.
A flower subscription is a way of giving someone something beautiful at Christmas and then continuing that feeling into the months that follow, with seasonal flowers chosen especially for that moment in the year.
