London
Glance at any classic poetry compendium or generic high street greeting cards display and you’ll see floral language and metaphors in abundance. In fact it can all become very cliched very quickly, so hats off to Sally Brace of Larkspur And Lavender for working the following phrase into her bio: “I have sweated my petals off over the years to get where I am today.” And where is that? After 20 years working as a fashion designer/stylist, Sally is now a firm flower favourite in Hackney - renowned for her naturalistic, freestyle approach to crafting fresh, seasonal bouquets.
