RECENT HIGHLIGHTS...

In 2018 Evolve Flowers Ltd was selected as a finalist in The British Flowers Week Event held at The Garden Museum, Lambeth London. The floral installation; The Spiral Meadow was constructed without any floral foam and used 100% British blooms. It was visited by the Duchess of Cornwall and other VIPs as well as being featured on BBC Breakfast with Helen interviewed by Carol Kirkwood.

2018 also involved another spiral - this time at The Festival of Flowers at Leeds Castle. Helen was invited to design an installation for the spiral staircase around the theme of Ladies Day. This design featured an elegant cast iron bath, sign written with a poem overflowing with a floral waterfall and hiding a rubber duck! (As seen on the header photograph for this page)
