Dalton & Bloom

Dalton & Bloom Full time Floral Academy with a diverse programme of workshops and courses. Also offering fresh flower deliveries and in-store collection.

Plus a stunning selection of luxury gifts. Hi there, I’m Karen Dalton, founder of Dalton Bloom, and I’m so glad you’re here. My journey in floristry officially took root in May 2014, when I launched Dalton Bloom after completing my training at a prestigious flower school in Mayfair, London. That same year, I began teaching—an unexpected but deeply fulfilling path that soon became central to my pur

pose. Although my first wedding production dates back to 2003, and my work has since taken me across Africa producing large-scale weddings for incredible clients, dignitaries and even a few royals, my greatest pride lies not in the grandeur of those events, but in the growth of my students. Drawing on over 22 years of experience in the floral and event design industry, I developed the training programmes we offer today. I recognised a real need for floristry education that goes beyond theory—programmes rooted in real-world experience that teach not only the essential skills of floristry, but also the hard truths and the equally abundant joys that come with this craft. Dalton Bloom is more than a floristry studio—it’s a space to create, to learn, and to build something meaningful. Whether you're here to explore workshops, seek inspiration, or find a supportive creative community, you are warmly welcome.

It’s pretty important to use it correctly. It’s formulated to give your fresh cut flowers the exact amount of nutrients they need 🌸

We sell them in packs of 10 from our website. Great to keep a supply at home.

I know you’re SUPER ready for the silly season but the bigger question is if your front door is. Don’t neglect her. She’s worked seriously well this year, hasn’t complained once - she too deserves the dazzle.

Order her a wreath at least. Only R525, way easier and cheaper than a whole repaint if you think about it.

I’m obsessed with making these festive door wreaths. Order via WhatsApp or email 🌲🌲🌲
