We go to the market before six, pick what’s best that week, and write every card by hand. Then it goes out by bike.
For Mum.
Same day as last year, only earlier this time.
Tell us a date once: a birthday, an anniversary, a first day somewhere new. A week before, we send you a short note. If you don’t change anything, the flowers go out on the day.
The photo on a flower site is usually from a different season. Ours changes every Monday, and so do the bunches.
And who it’s for. We keep it for next year.
The best of the market, wrapped in paper. Never plastic.
Your words, our pen. Taken over by bike across East London.

This week’s best
Go get them. Proud of you.
Want it every year? Tick “remember this date” and we’ll ask you a week before.
