🌸 What’s in Season? Your Go-To Flower Guide from a Lincoln Florist.

Hey flower lovers! 👋
Ever wondered which flowers are actually in season when you’re ordering a bouquet, planning a wedding, or just treating yourself to something pretty? You’re not alone! As your local Lincoln florist, we get asked this all the time.

So we thought—why not pop all the seasonal faves into one easy guide? Whether you're after soft spring tulips or bold summer dahlias, we've got you covered.

Let’s dive into the blooms by season, shall we?

🌷 Spring Flowers (March – May)

Ahh, spring... that first whiff of fresh flowers after a long winter. Everything’s coming back to life—and that includes our flower buckets!

Spring stars:

  • Tulips (classic!)

  • Daffodils

  • Hyacinths

  • Anemones

  • Ranunculus

  • Narcissi

Think soft pastels, delicate scents, and loads of charm. Perfect for Mother’s Day, Easter bouquets, or brightening up your hallway table.

💡 Florist tip: Ranunculus = the fancy cousin of the rose, and WE LOVE using them in spring arrangements.

☀️ Summer Flowers (June – August)

Now we’re talking colour! Summer flowers are full-on fabulous—bold, bright, and totally cheerful.

Summer favourites:

  • Peonies (short season but oh-so-worth it)

  • Roses (British-grown are stunning)

  • Sweet peas (smell divine!)

  • Sunflowers

  • Dahlias

  • Cornflowers

Great for weddings, BBQ table centrepieces, birthdays… or “just because” treats. If you love a full, bouncy bouquet—this is your season.

💡 Peony lovers, be quick! Their season flies by in June.

🍁 Autumn Flowers (September – November)

Autumn blooms bring all the rustic, cozy vibes. Think burnt oranges, deep reds, and soft golds—basically nature’s version of a cuddle.

Autumn beauties:

  • Chrysanthemums

  • Hydrangeas (they dry beautifully too!)

  • Berries (hypericum are my fave)

  • Calla lilies

  • Rose hips

  • Seasonal foliage (🍁 yes please)

These make the dreamiest bouquets for autumn weddings or even a thoughtful pick-me-up for someone who loves this season.

💡 Pair with dried flowers or grasses for that trending “boho autumn” look.

❄️ Winter Flowers (December – February)

Winter doesn’t mean boring! We just swap tropical colours for elegant whites, deep reds, and festive greenery.

Winter winners:

  • Amaryllis

  • Hellebores (aka Christmas roses)

  • Paperwhites

  • Eucalyptus (smells amazing)

  • Pine, fir, berries, cones, and more

Perfect for Christmas, winter weddings, Valentine’s bouquets—or adding a bit of calm beauty to grey days.

💡 Pro tip: Add fairy lights or dried oranges for a festive feel in your arrangements.
