November Seasonal Guide

What’s in season this November

November brings a fresh selection of seasonal wholesale flowers, winter plants and plenty of inspiration for the festive season. In this month’s Flowervision London update, we’re sharing the latest flower arrivals, introducing our new sundries department, exploring Christmas decorations and helping you plan ahead with our Christmas Flower Pre-Order List.

In the Cash & Carry

New Sundries Department

Our new Sundries Department is beginning to take shape, and we’re looking forward to bringing you an even wider selection of sundries, accessories and decorative essentials.

With Christmas preparations well underway, there’s plenty to explore, from traditional dried fruits and scented cinnamon sticks to colourful baubles, ribbons, wreath-making essentials and statement decorations.

Alongside the products available in our London Cash & Carry, we can also source a fantastic selection from our UK and Dutch suppliers.

Looking for something in particular? Speak to Angie, our new Sundries Manager, who’ll be happy to help you find what you need and advise on availability and ordering.

Berries and Branches

Now is the perfect time to make the most of all the gorgeous seasonal berries. From the first of the Ilex to the fleeting beauty of Callicarpa, there’s a wonderful selection to work with as we head into November.

Look out for varieties including Ilex verticillata and Winter Gold, the long, arching stems of Rosehip Corallo, the delicate little hips of Rosehip Hip Hop Sunset, the striking purple berries of Callicarpa Profusion, and a fantastic selection of Hypericum in an array of colours.

Plant Spotlight

Winter Plants

Bring a little winter colour to your plant displays with Cymbidium Orchids, Cyclamen, Skimmia, Picea and more. From colourful flowering plants to miniature evergreens, there’s a lovely selection to work with as we head towards Christmas.

Pair them with our range of baskets, pots and planters from sundries to create seasonal displays and gift ideas your customers will love.

A wider selection of plants and varieties is also available to order directly from Holland.

Grower Spotlight

Holstein Flowers

A family passion for gerberas, spanning three generations.

As we head into winter, gerberas are a wonderful way to bring colour and character into floral designs, and Dutch grower Holstein Flowers knows a thing or two about them!

What began in 1974 as one of the first gerbera nurseries is now a third-generation family business, with over 50 years of experience growing and developing its own varieties.

Each year, the team tests more than 200 varieties, selecting only the strongest for production. In fact, over 90% of the gerberas they grow are their own varieties, offering florists a distinctive choice of colours and forms.

It’s this combination of family knowledge, experience and a passion for developing something different that makes Holstein Flowers a grower worth knowing.

Start of season

Anemones, Ranunculus and more

You may have already spotted the first Italian Anemones, Ranunculus and Narcissi arriving in the Cash & Carry!

It’s still early in the season, but these favourites bring some welcome colour to late autumn and early winter arrangements. From the vibrant colours and striking centres of Italian Anemones to the delicate, layered petals of Ranunculus, there’s plenty of texture and interest to work with.

Make the most of beautiful Nerines while they’re still around, and look out for other winter favourites, including Hippeastrum, as the season progresses.
