Welcome to the English florist podcast, a fortnightly show about living the life of an event florist.

This week Linz asks; what do seasonal flowers mean to you? And what about only buying locally? Is this the best way to buy, the only way you should buy, perhaps? It’s an emotive subject for many and Lindsey tries to unpick this sometimes, thorny topic.

Welcome to the English florist podcast, a fortnightly show about living the life of an event florist.

From her home just outside Henley, Oxfordshire, Linz invites Lou to share her story of how she became a florist.
