    The Wildflower Café, Notting Hill

     

    With its very own in-house florist, no wonder this super-cute seasonal café puts on the best private flower arranging parties (for groups of 6-8). Not to mention the coffee and cakes…

     

    The one with the best name

    The Petal Pusher, Richmond

    Shabby chic interiors, walls adorned with local art; this is one cosy spot for an afternoon learning the ins and out of floristry. With a bit of help from cheese and wine, natch.

    The one that’s too cool for school 

    Kiki and Cole Café, West Sussex

    This vintage style gem is a full-blown Flower School providing workshops on everything from wedding flowers on a budget to making the most out of your supermarket bought bunch.
