Expertly Grown Flowers
A Selection of
Supplying beautifully grown organic cut flowers to a small clientele, we are happy to be collaborating with some of the most sought-after talents in the business. We find it is kinder to the environment and the flowers to offer them freshly cut in buckets of water, to be collected from the workshop. Large quantities for events can be delivered by arrangement. Besides hundreds of tulips we supply many other bulbs, as well as ever-increasing numbers of annuals and perennials. Our growing season runs from April to November, although we supply evergreen foliage, branches and berries throughout the winter months. Following is a selection of flowers grown at Bayntun, offered seasonally.
