Flowers in the summer

Sometimes you just feel the need for flowers. My favourite place in London to get (very reasonable) fresh flowers, is Columbia Road Flower Market (closest tube: Hoxton). You get a real feel for the the East London market and it is a good idea to go late on a Sunday around 2pm to get the best deals. Not too long ago I picked up two bunches of beautiful fresh peonies for £5!

With a mum as a wedding flower designer (www.paperwhiteflowers.co.uk), I have grown up with a real passion for flowers and do believe that they can truly lift your spirit!
