who know the name
of every stem

We work with British growers from Cornwall to Kent. We know which peonies come from which fields, which ranunculus opened this morning, and which lily of the valley is still tight enough to last five days in a vase.

Every bouquet we send is the work of a single florist — not a conveyor belt, not a template. They choose the stems, trim the stems, and tie the stems. The result is a bouquet that looks nothing like a supermarket shelf and everything like a gathered garden.

May peonies and ranunculus — the star blooms of the British spring season
Now in season

May 2026

The best of
what's blooming

May is the month British gardens truly come alive. Peonies — the undisputed star — opening from tight buds into blooms the size of side plates. Ranunculus with their endless layers of tissue-thin petals. Lilac, sweet peas, and lily of the valley filling the studio with fragrance.

At Olive Tree Florist, we work with seasonal British blooms every day. Here is everything you need to know about what is in season, why it matters, and how to make the most of it.

What London says

The kind of flowers

I ordered The Olive Branch for my mother’s birthday. She rang me in tears — she said it was the most beautiful bouquet she had ever received, and she is seventy-three and has seen a lot of flowers.
