Do you suppose she's a wildflower?
Flowers and plants have been a lifelong passion of mine but my professional floristry journey took off in my 40’s, training at college and alongside established florists in London and Hertfordshire. An eye for creating something extraordinary and unique, bringing floral artistry and botanical magic with a truly personal service is what sets Flowers by Catherine apart from other businesses.
“Do you suppose she’s a wildflower?” is a quote from Alice In Wonderland and is one that has stayed with me for many years. To me it embodies looking at things differently, creatively and sharing the beauty in everything to enhance our space and life.
Prior to the world of flowers, I worked as an Executive Assistant for over 20 years, skills which definitely come in very handy when it comes to running a successful business.

We also provide Gift Vouchers, regular flower subscriptions and The Flower Club which includes flowers you can create yourself with my online tutorials. So you can spread the floral love all year round!
