Amaryllis is exactly the kind of florist you'd expect to stumble across in Primrose Hill or Westbourne Grove.
Housed in a beautifully fronted, boutique shop opposite The Old Market theatre and arts centre, it specialises in elegant, stylish, unusual and exotic flowers and plants. The owners describe themselves as 'flower designers' rather than florists and supply most of the posh hotels and restaurants in Brighton and Hove with fresh flower arrangements. They also provide stunning table decorations for special occasions and weddings. If you're after a bunch of dramatic lillies, avalanche and grand prix roses or birds of paradise - this is the place to go. They also sell fantastic vases and plant pots that you won't find anywhere except antique shops.
