A Love Letter to October Flowers

There’s something about October flowers that feels magical - rich, warm, and full of life, even as the days grow shorter. This time of year, the flower plot at Cicely Flowers bursts with deep autumn tones: golden sunflowers, fiery dahlias, soft chrysanthemums, and airy cosmos, all swaying together in the autumn light.

I’ve always loved this season. The colours feel indulgent and comforting at the same time, and each bouquet seems to carry a little bit of sunlight in its petals. It’s the perfect moment to pause and appreciate the beauty of locally grown, seasonal flowers, right here in Bradford on Avon.

This is also a wonderful time for late summer and autumn weddings or party flowers. There’s still plenty of availability for next year if you’re looking for bouquets, table arrangements, or event blooms in warm, rich shades. Every arrangement is grown and picked with care, designed to complement the season and your special day. Find out more about wedding flowers here.

If you’ve ever fallen in love with the deep reds, burnt oranges, and golden yellows of autumn flowers, now is the time to enjoy them - or gift them - before the season fades.

🍂 Thank you for supporting Cicely Flowers and for helping me share the joy of seasonal, locally grown blooms all year round.
