British Flowers Week takes place annually in June. This week is dedicated to promoting and celebrating British-grown flowers, foliage, and plants. It is an opportunity to highlight the beauty and diversity of local floral varieties, support British flower growers, and encourage sustainable floristry practices.

New Covent Garden Market launched this appreciation week in 2013 to shine a spotlight on the UK’s cut flower industry. The event aims to raise awareness about the benefits of choosing locally grown flowers over imported ones. These benefits include reduced carbon footprint, fresher blooms, and support for the local economy. The week-long celebration includes a series of events, workshops, and floral displays that showcase the best of British horticulture.

Throughout the week, florists, growers, and flower enthusiasts participate in a variety of activities to promote British flowers. These activities include floral installations in public spaces, educational workshops on sustainable floristry, and open days at flower farms. Florists often create special arrangements and bouquets using only British-grown flowers, demonstrating the versatility and beauty of homegrown blooms.
