One of my favourite weekend rituals is to pick up some fresh flowers to brighten up our home. I tend to go for simple bunches of peonies, roses, hydrangeas or carnations (I’m so with Carrie Bradshaw on the charm of the humble carnation), but my routine was in need of a shake up. So, it was a real treat to receive an original and truly creative flower bouquet from Bloomon.
Bloomon is the innovative flower delivery service that’s got people talking and enjoying gorgeous flowers on a regular basis in London. Originating in Amsterdam, Bloomon cuts out the middlemen, offering the freshest possible flowers from growers in the Netherlands to your door.
More impressive, however, is the exquisite design and curation of each bespoke bouquet. Every flower tells a story and is a thing of beauty – in fact, some were so unusual, I don’t think I’d ever seen them before. You can really tell that the bouquets are made with love.
My New Bohemian bouquet was simply breathtaking and I was so excited to unwrap such an amazing gift. It arrived in a big brown paper gift bag, to accommodate the large modern glass vase, and a colourful paper sleeve with some handy tips written inside to help prolong the life of your flowers.
I have to admit, I struggle with keeping blooms happy – assuming they can fend for themselves and ending in emergency flower CPR and lots of guilt. So, Bloomon’s advice was really helpful, I just had to put it into practice.
The New Bohemian bouquet was romantic and free-spirited, filled with flowers such as a coral-pink peony, dusky pink rose, bluebell, red carnation and the more exotic curcuma, clematis, astrantia, brodiaea and scabiosa. The attractive colour palette was a mix of blues, pinks and purples with flashes of vibrant green and yellow.
So, how does Bloomon work exactly? You can order online and receive a bouquet weekly, fortnightly or monthly and change the pace whenever you wish. There are three sizes of bouquet to choose from, with the option of adding a modern glass vase, and your flowers will then be delivered conveniently within an allocated one-hour time slot.
Bloomon’s wild and soulful flowers are the perfect way to treat yourself, learn about different types of flowers and find inspiration. I’m already craving another bouquet to fill that big glass vase.
