18 best flower subscription services 2023 UK for fresh regular flower delivery | The Sun

FRESH flowers not only brighten up the room, adding their fragrance to the air, but they make you feel happier just looking at them – and with the best flower subscriptions UK you will be happy regularly!

Get your floral fix weekly, fortnightly or monthly by signing up for a flower subscription service.

They’ve been gaining popularity for several years now, which makes sense. After all, if you can order vegetable and recipe boxes to add variety to the dinner table, then why not make sure the table looks its best with a bouquet of pretty blooms?

They may feel indulgent, but that's exactly what makes flower subscriptions such a lovely way to give back to yourself. Plus, they're a great gift idea for the person who has everything.

With bouquets being sourced, curated and arranged by experts and local florists, it's an easy way to experience the seasonal variety and receive flowers you've not tried before.

However, if you'd rather have control over what goes into your delivery, many companies allow you to choose your style, and preferred colours and even advise them on the flowers you don't like.

How much is a monthly flower subscription service?

There are masses of flower subscriptions nationwide that can be tailored to your needs and budget.

The cost of the monthly subscription will vary on the type of flower you select and the size of the bouquet delivery.

Expect to pay anywhere from £18 for a smaller set of flowers to £60 for premium bouquets, but most subscriptions cost around £25. The flower subscriptions we included in our round-up range from £20 up to £44.

The cost will also depend on how many months you choose to receive flowers for – the longer the time period, the cheaper the monthly price of flowers will be.

How do flower subscription services work?

A flower subscription service delivers an ongoing supply of fresh flowers straight to your front door. Most subscriptions work on a monthly basis, but some companies provide the option of weekly or bi-weekly deliveries.

The beauty of a flower subscription service is that you can either choose what flowers you'd like delivered every month or leave it up to fate and be surprised every month with something new and different.

Subscription services generally save you money compared to a one-off purchase, but you are usually locked into a regular fee for anywhere between three and 12 months.

How long do the flowers last?

Different types of flowers last for different periods of time – but with most flower subscriptions you will get the flowers in buds. This means that they've been harvested to last longer and bloom when the bunch arrives at your home.

Most flower subscriptions come with flower food or handy tips on how to look after your blooms and keep them looking fresher for longer.

Is a flower subscription worth it?

There's no better feeling than getting a bunch of flowers – they look and smell amazing, can really boost your mood and brighten up your home.

It's totally down to personal preference, but everyone deserves to treat themselves every now and again. Also, if you're looking for an extra special gift, a flower subscription makes a truly memorable one.
