Putting farewell flowers in a world-class spotlight at RHS Chelsea Flower Show 2025

We’re changing the face of funeral floristry, so if you’d like to support us with a one-off donation to fund our efforts at RHS Chelsea Flower Show, you’ll be helping to change floristry too. Your donations help to fund the display but knowing that we have your support also plays a big part in motivating us to do more.

Our display in Chelsea’s Grand Pavilion will be feature exclusively British grown blooms and will be entirely free of plastic floral foam and single use plastic. It will prove you don’t have to sacrifice beauty for sustainability. It will show how fresh, seasonal materials are natural, beautiful and can be resonant with meaning. Treading lightly on the planet, they leave no plastic behind.

We want our display to inspire and spark conversations about what sustainable funeral flowers can be. We think the RHS Chelsea Flower show is the perfect stage on which to demonstrate that funeral flowers don’t need to stay hidden in the shadows, but should be celebrated and enjoyed for their beauty beyond their primary purpose. We want show you that funeral flowers can be anything you want them to be.

Our churchyard scene will feature a range of compostable designs, from flower-filled boots to shareable casket sprays and naturally woven wreaths. Our flowers are inspired by life stories to fit the personalities of the people they’re reflecting. We’ll show you that there are so many ways to make personalised funeral flowers that don’t need to cost the earth.

Staging the exhibit will be Georgie Newbery, Common Farm Flowers; Nicola Hill, Gentle Blooms; Gill Hodgson, Fieldhouse Flowers and Carole Patilla, Tuckshop Flowers. We’ll be supported by more florists at the show to tell you more about our display and about sustainable funeral flowers. Are you a member and want to get involved?
