If you’ve just lost someone very dear, you’re going to want flowers for their funeral.

Your person was unique, like no-one else in the whole world, so you’re going to want flowers that reflect their likes and the things they loved during life. You can look at some sizes, shapes and prices of my flowers HERE, but please just ask if you’ve an idea that isn’t shown.

During the season, I’ll use my own flowers and those from nearby flower farmers. I’ll use imported flowers when British isn’t available and I’ll never ever use floral foam.

Funeral flowers are important. I believed so strongly that everyone should be aware of the wide choice of sustainable arrangements available that I co-founded The Farewell Flowers Directory Ltd and, just one year later in May 2025, took it to RHS Chelsea Flower Show where we won a Gold medal. We were the first people ever to display funeral flowers at Chelsea in the show’s long history.

Because I needed to give 100% of my attention and energy to Chelsea this year, I won’t be opening for PYO, and I’m sorry for the disappointment this will cause among all my lovely visitors. Turning 70 at the end of last year has made me realise I can’t do everything - even if I’d really like to…

I believe there are still 3 vouchers remaining unused from last year. If one of these is yours, please get in touch and I’ll sort something out. If you’re local I could bring you a lovely bunch of flowers - or offer a refund if you’re from further away.

I’m Gill Hodgson MBE and, over the past 15 years, I’ve created a beautiful area on our farm from where I’ll gather and create very personal flowers for a funeral. I use no pesticides in the field and, as a result, it’s full of insects, bees
and birds who enjoy the tranquil space almost as much as I do.
