Beautifully arranged cut flowers are a small luxury that can brighten up your home in a flash. Here’s a round up of the best bouquets available at florists in north London

London florists are resoundingly hip, a million miles from the stiff and gaudy arrangements of yesteryear, and floral displays are increasingly tied to trends in interiors and fashion – note the current vogue for loose, slightly undone arrangements incorporating unexpected ingredients, the floral equivalent of the pared down styles, tousled hair and bare faces on the catwalk.

At the same time, independent stores each have their own distinct identity and conoisseurs of the bouquet can often pick out a particular brand’s magic touch at a glance. Ranging from the neat and symmetrical to a wilder, hedgerow luxe look, all are beautiful selections of the best the season has to offer, with the heady scents of late summer ready to fill your home.

Whether you opt to pop into a store or order online or over the phone, here are six of the best late summer bouquets available in north London.
