It’s too early to call the precise outcome* of Valentine’s ‘26 but what I do know is that Lover Land has been made a whole lot more wonderful with flowers.

And the reason it happens so brilliantly is down to a global network of people – from grower to florist - and all driven by the public who have shown they want flowers and lots of them.

It hasn’t been easy. The flower industry has once again been the punch bag for some woefully inaccurate press coverage; prices have been dreadful and there have been some, quite frankly, pretty cruel social media campaigns going on.

But what some people seem to forget is that we are a totally consumer led industry. We make and deliver what the customer asks for, and our job is to make their dreams and wishes come true in the best way we can.

The last week has been all about the love and means that everyone who touched a flower was involved in a love story. I think that’s a pretty powerful thing and something the whole industry should be very proud of.

So, to ALL the Super Cupids out there - wherever you work and whichever bit of the chain you are in - may your hands, back and feet recover soon, may you be very proud of what you’ve done ... flower power at its best. Kindest regards, Caroline x
