At Paddington Flowers, we believe that beautiful arrangements shouldn’t cost the earth. Our mission is to bring joy and freshness into homes and businesses in Paddington, while taking care of the environment at every step. Sustainability isn’t just a trend for us—it’s a core value shared by our team, our partners, and our customers both at home and across Paddington’s thriving business community.
We’re passionate about reducing our environmental impact, starting with the way your flowers are packaged. All our bouquets are wrapped in fully recyclable, biodegradable, or compostable materials. We avoid traditional plastic wraps and non-recyclable floral foams, opting instead for renewable options that help keep Paddington clean and green. Our gift boxes use recycled paper and natural twine, and even our cards are printed on FSC-certified paper with eco-friendly inks, ensuring that every element can be disposed of responsibly.
Choosing local is at the heart of sustainable floristry. We work closely with growers in Paddington and surrounding areas, sourcing seasonal flowers whenever possible. By supporting British flower farms, we reduce the miles your bouquet has to travel—bringing you fresher blooms and a smaller carbon footprint. Our relationships with local suppliers also help nurture Paddington’s local economy and allow us to offer the very best of each season’s harvest.
Not all flowers are grown equally. That’s why we stock Fairtrade-certified flowers as part of our range, ensuring they are cultivated with respect for both people and the planet. These flowers are grown on farms with safe working conditions, fair wages, and strict environmental standards. By offering ethically sourced flowers in Paddington, we help make sure every bouquet brings happiness rather than harm—both locally and in communities across the world.
Delivering flowers should not come at the expense of the environment. That’s why Paddington Flowers uses low-carbon vehicles for all local deliveries. Our fleet of modern vans is either fully electric or among the most efficient on the road, significantly reducing emissions compared to standard vehicle deliveries. By minimising fuel consumption and carefully planning our routes, we provide sustainable flower delivery throughout Paddington, ensuring every delivery is as green as possible.
Many of our customers and business clients in Paddington value sustainability as highly as we do. Increasingly, people are looking for ethical options that align with their values—from eco-friendly home décor to green office initiatives. By choosing Paddington Flowers for your bouquets and arrangements, you’re supporting a local business that puts the environment first. Our dedication to sustainability is just one more way we work to exceed the expectations of our community.
We are always looking for new ways to improve our eco credentials. From reducing waste behind the scenes, to supporting Paddington’s community gardens and environmental causes, we see sustainability as an evolving journey. If you have ideas or feedback on how we can become even greener, we would love to hear from you next time you visit our shop.
Make your next bouquet a symbol of care—not only for your loved ones, but for the planet, too. With Paddington Flowers, choosing sustainability means never compromising on beauty or quality. Thank you for helping us grow a greener, more vibrant Paddington for generations to come.
