Professional Courses

Created for new florists ready to take the flowery leap

What a Lovely Bunch offers a fresh, modern approach to traditional floristry education. Sessions have been designed to encourage creativity and individual style, the programme balances artistic exploration with a strong understanding of the fundamental science and techniques that underpin great floral design.

Founder Polly took an unconventional path into floristry, deterred by the traditional route after hearing experienced florists talk about endlessly about their experience at traditional flower schools and how much they later had to unlearn.

Sessions combine solid technical knowledge with a more contemporary, thoughtful approach to working with flowers along with the business fundamentals of running a floral design business.

The aim? to create a space where new florists and flower enthusiasts can explore ideas, refine their style and work with flowers in an intentional setting.

Still reading? Why not get in touch and be guided by Polly. You will get to experiment, create and gain fresh perspective, leaving feeling energised, confident and creatively inspired.

We also provide mentorship packages where students will be given tailored support on running a successful floral design business.
