    Meet Leigh

    Florist

    Leigh hails from a charming village on the Gower Peninsula in South Wales, a place renowned for its stunning wildflowers and vibrant plant life. Inspired by this natural beauty, Leigh studied botanical illustration before moving to London to work as a graphic designer.

    After having a child, Leigh realised she needed a career that offered more flexibility to balance her work and family life. Traditional jobs didn't offer the suitable hours she needed, so she explored other avenues. Her passion for flowers, despite having no formal training, led her to become a florist.

    Leigh has a strong commitment to using local and sustainable flowers in her work, reflecting her respect for nature and commitment to environmentally friendly practices. Her journey from botanical illustrator to graphic designer and now florist highlights her adaptability and passion for creativity.
