Flowers for Mothering Sunday

The UK's Mother's Day falls in Lent, three weeks before Easter, and the flowers are the spring market's.

The next one: Sunday 7 March 2027.

Order by 11:00 on Saturday 6 March 2027 and the van brings them that day, the last delivery day before Mothering Sunday. It is one of the busiest days of a florist's year, so order earlier if you can.

Mothering Sunday is the fourth Sunday in Lent, three weeks before Easter Sunday, so its date moves every year. It began as the day for visiting your mother church and became the day for visiting your mother, and it is one of the busiest weekends of a florist's year.

Spring bunches in her favourite colours, tulips and ranunculus in a jar for the kitchen, or a basket of bulbs that goes on flowering for weeks. The American Mother's Day is in May; Mothering Sunday is the UK's own.
