I’m never entirely sure about the value of a biography page, truth be told I’d much rather my work speak for itself, so I do hope you’ve either experienced The White Horse Flower Company florals or I’ve been recommended.
Either way, I’m delighted you’ve found me / my website, I’m Linz (Lindsey), I’ve been a florist for 25 + years. I don’t think I’ll ever tire of creating exquisite arrangements for some of lifes’ most precious celebrations - put simply, it’s what I ‘do’!
An experienced florist, I was ‘bench trained’ by an incredble florist who taught me almost everything on the job; it was here I learned to lean into the season and follow my own intuition - something I continue to do today.
As for my work ethic, stamina, calm demeanor and general unflappability (key requirements as an event florist), these were likely aquired from my original career as a nurse and then midwife (I do a different kind of special delivery these days)!
When not arranging flowers, you’ll find me in the kitchen, in the garden or walking my dog foraging for seasonal ingredients to use in my work (or to cook with). This seasonal approach is how I like to arrange my flowers, using what’s available at any given time of year for truly beautiful one-off designs not to mention keeping ones creativity open to limitless possibilities working with seasonal ingredients. In my opinion, this is where the magic happens.
I always try to set an example by arranging flowers without the use of single-use plastics or floral foam. We up-cycle, recyle, repurpose and compost all green waste as well as wrap our bouquets in brown (or unbleached) paper. Simple, every day actions which if done collectively, make a vast difference to our precarious and precious planet.
I buy many flowers locally in West Berkshire and North Hampshire during the flowering season. Local means I truly follow the ebb and flow of the season; so much more exciting, if unpredictable. I want TWHFCo flowers to be outstanding - never average or predictable - it’s just how we do things here.
If you’re wanting truly memorable flowers that your guests will talk about long after the event, perhaps you’ve been inspired by our reviews, better still you’ve seen first hand and admired our flowers at an event , I’d love to hear from you.
