You can pick up ready-made bouquets for about £20 or ask for something unique for any price. So if your friend hates roses and loves the colour yellow, then they can do a yellow rose-free bunch in a few minutes. I have bought flowers from here for gardeners and they have been impressed, which kinda says it all. Staff are really friendly and listen to what you are trying to explain, most importantly really excited about making something for you that works. They also deliver locally but, trust me, if you're a man walking down the street with flowers you will get a smile from all the ladies!

This is a wonderfully refreshing and vibrant florist right in the heart of the city centre. One of…read morethe most refreshing things about it is the service - a very personal touch from Ms Tomlinson herself who has built the business from scratch. It is her knowledge and dedication to the industry that really shines through in this wild pink and green floral bouquet of a store. This isn't a run-off-the-mill florist offering baskets of pre picked flowers and plants fit for a student's bedroom. On the contrary it is something very unique and different; a shop where specific types of flower are bought in and sold similarly specific. Bunches and bouquets can be arranged for any occasion from a christening, to a wedding, to a wake. Even if you're not sure what flowers would be best for what occasion, rest assured Tilly Tomlinson and her more than able staff will be happy to assist. A colourful, happy shop built with love and smelling oh so beautiful.

Quite a popular name for a florist is Kingswood Florist. The big difference with this one is that…read moreit's actually in Kingswood and it really is a wonderful little place. Seemingly built around something of a garden shed, this little shop in the middle of the shopping centre offers quite a bit of competition for any florist around. The stock may not be massive but it is all very high quality; flowers and plants from the UK and Holland arranged in colourful stacks and piles. None of it's too dear either with some really good deals on some really beautiful plants. A very nice little place indeed.

A lovely lady who gets some very unusual flowers in from the trade markets - you can also ask her to get you in something specific if you give her enough notice. She also likes to keep seasonal so you see something different each time you go to her stall. My favourite is when she gets the stems of willow with the furry buds on in spring. Her bouquets are modern and delicate, or you can just buy a few stems of things to take home and arrange yourself.

This is the best selection of bespoke bouquets anywhere in the city! They have such an amazing…read moreselection for personal events, like birthdays and weddings. Such incredibly personal service as well, the kind of service you can only get from a company like this. They will even use ostrich plumage in your flower display for that 'I'm definitely not a cheapskate' look. No, seriously they will make you something really special here. They have just added a whole range of fruit and vegetable plants to their stall, things like strawberries, tomatoes, courgettes, leaks and lettuces and if I had the faintest idea how to grow any of those things I would give it a go (I don't have a garden, probably an issue?). They have also got a great range of potted plants for granny or auntie and if you do what the marketing campaigns tell you and buy flowers for yourself, rather than wait for men like me to do something wrong, treat yourself to some from this stall.

This is a florist unlike any other I have been in before…read more Perhaps it is because it is more like a shop in the conventional sense; insulated and warm as opposed to the sort of garden centre feel a lot of other florists have. Perhaps it is the homely and welcoming interior, with its framed photographs or antique chairs. I assume it is a combination of all these points and the ensuing and absolutely incredible scent from the flowers, unable to circulate but instead sitting like some beautifully soft quilt. Bunches of missed anniversaries and apologies sit outside in colourful metal bins alongside larger bouquets of a graduation or christening. It is the floral organising of big occasions such as weddings and funerals however, that really set Les Fleurs apart from the rest. If someone has their own garden, for instance, Les Fleurs can arrange to pick and prepare on site. It's a very professional but personal service where I really get the feel they're in control of things. For any query you have I suggest you give them a ring or, if possible, pop in - if only for the aforementioned quilt-like experience.
