Frequently Asked Questions
About Our Dried Flowers
1. What does Little Leaf Floral specialise in?
Little Leaf Floral creates handcrafted dried flower arrangements designed to last. Each piece is thoughtfully made using sustainably sourced blooms that have been naturally dried and preserved. Our collections include bouquets, wreaths, home décor pieces, and bespoke gifts — all made with love in the UK.
2. What makes dried flowers different from fresh flowers?
Dried flowers offer long-lasting beauty without the need for water or maintenance. They retain their natural colour and texture for months — even years — making them a sustainable alternative to fresh bouquets.
3. Are your dried flowers real?
Yes! All our dried flowers are 100% real and carefully dried using natural methods to preserve their form and colour. We never use dyes, sprays, plastic or artificial flowers.
Sustainability & Sourcing
4. Are your flowers sustainably sourced?
Absolutely. I grow all my dried flowers myself here in Berkshire. This minimizes waste and lowers the carbon footprint taken to reach you.
5. How long do dried flowers last?
With a little care, your dried flowers can last many years. Keep them away from direct sunlight, humidity, and water for the best results.
6. Do dried flowers need any maintenance?
Very little! Simply dust them gently every so often with a soft brush or hairdryer on a cool, low setting. Avoid water and damp areas to keep them looking beautiful.
Orders & Delivery
7. Can I order dried flowers online?
Yes — you can order directly from our website. Browse the shop or get in touch for bespoke creations if you have something specific in mind. Each arrangement is carefully packaged for delivery across the UK.
8. How are the flowers packaged for delivery?
All arrangements are plastic-free using paper and cardboard boxes to ensure safe delivery.
9. Do you ship nationwide?
Yes, we deliver across the UK. Each order is dispatched from our studio and packaged to withstand transit, so your flowers arrive in perfect condition.
Weddings, Events & Gifts
10. Do you make dried wedding bouquets and buttonholes?
Yes — our dried wedding flowers are a popular choice for brides looking for timeless, natural beauty. They can be prepared well in advance and kept as a keepsake after your big day.
11. Can you preserve my fresh flower wedding bouquet and buttonholes?
We love helping our customers preserve the magic and memories of their special day and offer a fresh to dried flower preservation service including 3D keepsake picture frame boxes.
12. Can you decorate venues or events with dried flowers?
We do! Dried flower installations, table arrangements, and wall décor add rustic elegance to any event. We offer both ready-made and bespoke designs to match your theme.
13. Can you preserve fresh funeral flowers?
We also specialise in preservation of fresh funeral flowers. Ask us about this service to create a meaningful floral memory that lasts for many years.
14. Can I send dried flowers as a gift?
Definitely. You can choose from a range of designs for birthdays, anniversaries, housewarmings, thank-you gifts, and more.
Care & Longevity
15. How do I look after my dried flowers?
Keep them away from direct sunlight, humidity, and moisture. Handle gently to prevent shedding, and dust occasionally to maintain their colour and shape.
16. Can I mix dried and fresh flowers?
Yes, you can — but we recommend keeping them separate for longevity. Dried arrangements pair beautifully with natural textures like pampas grass, eucalyptus, or preserved foliage.
