Foxgloves of Birchington is proud to be a small, independently owned and run florist shop situated on the main high street of Birchington on Sea. Owned and operated by Florist Sophie who has worked as a florist for 18 years and holds the accredited ICSF floristry qualification. We are a contemporary, creative florist shop. Every design we create is bespoke and unique just like our customers, we pride ourselves on creating beautiful and creative designs with what’s best available form our wholesalers on the day your order is due to be delivered. Our shop is stocked daily with fresh flowers and plants, we always have something a little different to offer. We strive to give the best customer service possible! From your first contact with us to the creating and delivery of your design/event we will take upmost care to ensure your expectations are met. We create beautiful handtied designs wrapped in brown Kraft paper, tissue and tied with raffia ( we try to keep our designs as natural as possible without any unnecessary plastic – we even use old rose stems to attach gift cads to our designs). As well as handtied designs we also offer floral hat boxes which are created into bio degradable foam inside a Brown Kraft hat box which is hand stamped with our botanical logo. We create these in a more modern style compared to the traditional style hatbox and we also incorporate a few dried flowers to create a mix of textures. As well as gift flowers we also offer a wide range of floral tributes which we personally deliver to the local funeral directors within our area. All of our funeral designs are created bespoke to your requirements, we are here to advise and assist with choosing the perfect tribute. We also create wedding and event flowers covering many different venues in and around the Kent area. See our website if you wish to book in a consultation with us. As well as fresh flowers, dried flowers, house plants and garden plants we also stock beautiful botanical soy wax candles and gorgeous cards by local artist Molly Pickle.

Hi, I’m Helen. My love of flowers began long before I started as a florist 28 years ago as an apprentice in a flower shop in Liverpool. I worked hard and ended up owning a florist’s in Leigh, Lancashire and also taught floristry at St. Helen’s College. I moved onto Marks and Spencer’s head office in London training their staff at customer service but ultimately my passion for floristry was too strong. I worked at a flower shop in Sandbach part-time for 10 years but always wanted to run my own florist and do things my way again. So with a little saving and fantastic support from husband Andrew, Flowers on the Cobbles was born! Flowers on the Cobbles is about a team of fabulous people, all passionate about beautiful flowers. Jan, a former primary school teacher, decided on a career change but uses the same principles from her teaching as she does with her flowers. Helen number 2, has worked in a large florist in London for several years and is a fabulous asset to have around. And then there’s Emma! The newest member of our team, who started with us doing work experience whilst studying floristry at Reaseheath College. She was so good, she became a permanent team member! I feel so blessed to have such an amazing team of like-minded people around me every day! We’ve been humbled by the feedback from local people who have been so supportive of the shop. We are building quite a pile of “thank you” notes from happy customers which are a testament to the skill and quality of our work. We love brightening your day with beautiful bouquets and stunning arrangements, so if you need flowers delivering in Sandbach, Middlewich, Holmes Chapel, Congleton, Crewe and anywhere in between – give us a call! Fabulous flowers are what make us tick.
