nationally David austin cut roses is an obvious choice for english roses but beware they are pricey although beautiful, not really every day roses more for weddings. The real flower company grow a lot of their own roses they also sell herbs and pretty garden flowers. I saw them at Tatton show they have some lovely stuff. They sell to the trade as well Please enable your cookies.
Seasonally you can get british flowers from wholesalers like daffs in spring or blooms in autumn if you struggle for local growers for your area.
All David Austin’s cut roses are actually grown in Kenya and The Real Flower Company also grow in Kenya but state that they do grow some roses in the UK.
The only true English Rose grower that I have found is Country Roses and I have been using lots of Roses from this company for weddings this year and they are stunning!
