The Watering Can Florist is dedicated to sourcing British-grown blooms

Bunches of pink and white British grown blooms from The Watering Can Florist

Based in Hudderfield, The Watering Can Florist, is dedicated to sourcing British grown blooms when it comes to her stunning wedding florals and has recently enlisted the help of several new British growers for a wonderful Mother's Day workshop hosted at local Lu's Place Cafe: Smith and Munson, Highcroft Nurseries, and Highlands Farm Cut Flowers, with foliage from Irish Green Guys. The workshop was a huge hit with the lovely mums, daughters and grandmas present, who created Mother's Day vase arrangements with these beautiful domestic blooms.

It didn't end there though as owner Liz was on a roll, sourcing more glorious English flowers from somewhere even closer to home for the Easter weekend – The Yorkshire Flower Patch in Hebden Bridge where her British-grown journey began back in 2020.

Ensuring your wedding flowers are sourced within the UK rather than incurring a huge carbon footprint by being imported, is a great step towards ensuring your big-day florals are sustainable. Your florist will be able to tell you what's in season at the time of your wedding to make sure this is achievable.

Duncan Fortune, Head of Commercial at Tesco Bank, says: "Wedding season can be a significant expense for households. Planning ahead and setting a dedicated budget for celebrations can help spread the cost over several months, allowing people to make the most of the celebrations while keeping their finances on track."
