I’m not entirely convinced about the value of a biography page, you dont really need to know anything about me, certainly not how I take my coffee or why I became a florist. I’d much rather my work to speak for itself. So I hope you’ve either been beguilded by our flowers or have been recommended by someone who already has.
Either way, I’m delighted you’ve found me and the website. I’m Linz (Lindsey), I’ve been a florist for over 25 years and I don’t think I’ll ever tire of creating flower arrangements for celebrations where the flowers create beautiful first impressions, often speaking louder than words.
I was trained by an incredble florist who taught me almost everything on the job; it was here I learned to lean into the seasons and follow my intuition - something I continue to do to this day.
As for my work ethic, stamina, calm demeanor and general unflappability (key requirements for an event florist), these were likely acquired from an earlier career as a nurse and midwife - I do a different kind of delivery these days!
When not arranging flowers, I’ll be either in the kitchen or out walking my dog - often foraging for seasonal inspiration and ingredients to use in our work (or cook with). This seasonal approach is how I like to arrange flowers here at The White Horse Flower Company - using what’s available at any given time of year for one-off designs. In my opinion this is where the magic happens.
At TWHFCo we try to set an example by arranging all our flowers without the use of single-use plastics or floral foam. We up-cycle, recyle, repurpose and compost all our green waste, wrap bouquets in brown (or unbleached) paper. Simple practices which if done collectively make a vast difference to our precious if somewhat precarious planet.
We buy flowers locally during the flowering season. Local means following the ebb and flow of each season - much more exciting even if a little unpredictable.
So, if you want truly memorable flowers that will be talked about long after the event or perhaps you’ve been impressed by our five star reviews, we’d really love to hear from you.
