We help our customers to care wildly. Caring wildly is celebrating the little things we all do for each other every day. Not just the big occasions. It’s being there for the highs. Stepping up for the lows. We care wildly about people and our planet. Which is why we’re proud to be a certified B Corp – committed to making long‑term positive change for our community, and the world around us.

We announced £75 million Series D funding in 2021 and that same year acquired bloomon in The Netherlands, and Bergamotte in France. Together, we’ve fulfilled and delivered over 20 million orders (and counting), making us the largest direct‑to‑consumer flower business in Europe. Now home to a family of 3 beautiful brands, we’re driven by our vision to create the destination for making life a little more thoughtful and beautiful. And we won’t stop at flowers and plants.
