A UK flower delivery service brought smiles to Londoners’ faces by handing out free sunflowers at Waterloo Station.
Commuters and passersby were greeted with a burst of sunshine on Friday, courtesy of Prestige Flowers’ ‘Selfies and Sunflowers’ event.
The company hosted a showstopping pop-up to promote and support local growers by handing out free British-grown sunflowers, each beautifully packaged in stylish boxes.
The pop-up featured a colourful selfie machine, which became an instant hit among commuters eager to capture the moment with their new floral friends.
Elise Harlock, brand manager at Prestige Flowers, said: “It was an incredibly fun day! We loved seeing so many happy faces as people received their sunflowers and snapped selfies.
“Our aim was to celebrate and support British farmers, and it was wonderful to see such a positive response from everyone.”
As one of the most popular flowers in summer, sunflowers are a symbol of warmth, happiness, and positivity. By distributing British-grown sunflowers, Prestige Flowers highlighted the importance of supporting local agriculture and the quality of homegrown produce.
“Sunflowers are a quintessential summer flower, and there’s something truly special about those grown here in the UK,” Elise said. “We are proud to support our British growers and promote the beauty and quality of homegrown flowers.
“It’s essential for us as a brand to foster these relationships and celebrate the hard work of our local farmers.
“Supporting homegrown sunflowers and local farmers is not only about showcasing their beauty and quality but also about making a more sustainable and environmentally friendly choice.
“By sourcing flowers locally, we reduce the carbon footprint associated with long-distance transportation and contribute to a healthier planet. It’s a win-win for everyone.”
