One of the reasons I know I'm kooky is I don't go to Gunns to buy flowers…read more I know they sell some of the most beautiful flowers on the South coast - huge bunches of lilies, sunflowers, roses, birds of paradise, dahlias and so on - but the thing I can't resist is the clusters of fresh edibles. Earlier this summer, they sold pots of rosemary, mint and tomatoes. Now, they have clusters of the most divine looking red and green chillis. Even better, they look the perfect size pot for my wee patio garden. If you want to buy me some more as a surprise, Gunns offer home delivery for plants as well as bouquets!

I buy flowers from them every couple of weeks to…read morebrighten up my flat, and they never fail to create interesting, beautiful bouquets within my price range, which is usually less than a tenner. I also often buy irises from them and they always last well. The façade of the shop is incredible, painted dark green with vines and flowers twisting around the building and large yellow lettering announcing the shop's presence- you really can't miss them, the gorgeous and exotic looking flowers spill out on to the pavement and grab your attention as you wander by. Even if you're not planning to buy, it is well worth a look, as many of the plants and flowers on offer are simply breathtaking. The vivid pinks and oranges of some of the petals make me feel as if I've been transported to a Hawaiian rain forest! Gunns will arrange a bouquet to your specifications on the spot and will also take orders over the phone and guarantee same day delivery!

I'm increasingly becoming a bigger fan of the London Road Open Market, particularly now I've…read morediscovered the existence of this rather nice 'Market Flower Shop'. Located in the heart of the market, you'll find the prices to be considerably lower than bigger florists in the centre of town. Selling a range of flowers and plants (a number of which are home grown on a nearby allotment), you can pick up a host of bargains here. The lady working here was extraordinarily friendly; I went to buy a pot plant, only for here to recommend another one because it would be better provided by the weather.

There are nice florists about. But none, I think, as nice as this. She as a knack for making things extra pretty and totally different to any other flower arrangements I've seen. They feel personal, don't ask me how! Just go see for yourself. My favourite little idea and one I can never resist buying, is a gorgeous little jam jar full of the prettiest little flowers for £4.95 roughly. Perfect for little appreciation gifts (I always get my ma one - and myself I can't lie!). I love the fact my boy is so taken with this shop too, he really believes pixies live here. And he likes the 'magic roses'. They also cater for all occasions weddings, funerals - all the usual! If anyone ever pops the question to me (no chance!) I shall be definitely getting my flowers from here.

I simply wanted what I was charged for she posted my address on Facebook after I left a review so I had no choice to delete it in order to remove her comment.

And its true, there is a strong creative element in flower arranging- it must be really satisfying to create beautiful bouquets all day long. Whilst I've decided it's a little slow paced for me, I ardently admire and support those who make it their vocation. It lifts my spirits when I see a neighbourhood florist, and Ginger Lily is no exception. Outside there are all sorts of reasonably priced little plants- perfect for pressies or pick-me-up treats! Inside, though there's not a huge amount, what is there is really special. Lots of delicate, beautiful single stems...there's no question, this is the place to get a really unique and special bouquet. It may be a little pricier than a bunch of roses from Sainsburys, but who wants to receive flowers with a giant £4.99 emblazoned on the wrapping? Not I. So I urge you, splash out, support your local florist, and get a much more personalised bunch of posies for your mantel!

Batteries, photo frames, clocks, toys, can openers, torches, cigarette tins! Yellow Shop is a place you go not knowing what you want to come out with, and its owner knows that, feeling happier than most at you having a browse about without buying anything. He seemed quite the friendly sort of guy, and busied himself with a bit of casual tuneful whistling while helping with a customers order. The funny little shop didn't exactly make me fall in love with it, but its fun design and eclectic collection of products means I wouldn't be adverse to going again. And if I need to by mains adaptors, I'll know where to go!
