Flower Fayre

Flower Fayre is an excellent little florist located close to the train station in Shirley, Solihull. As well as doing a good range of flowers (as you’d expect), they do an awful lot more as well, all around the general theme of flowers and flowery imagery, such as photo frames, garden ornaments, and gift cards. I’ve bought a quite frankly hilarious looking chubby owl ornament for my dad, and I believe they’ve got one in the window still, so it’s worth a visit just to see that. Bouquets are nicely presented and cost around £5. My main issue with Flower Fayre is that it seems a bit confused is about what it’s trying to be. It’s not the best stocked florist, but it’s not the best general flowery shop either. Overall, a good, convenient shop if you’re looking for flowers or flowery trinkets, but if you’re looking for specifics, you may be better served by going to a more specialist shop.

This is a beautiful little flower shop that’s ideally in the middle of a residential area. Unlike many other flower shops, this one sells flowers when they’re in season rather than growing all sorts of flowers all year round. My favourite is the sun flower. Flower Fayre even do delivery! This is great if you can’t be there in person to give the flowers or if you want them to be given in a unique way. You can also have the flowers gift wrapped in a selection of wrappings. I think the prices are a little dear but I guess that’s because the flowers are kept in good condition.
