THE FARM
Burnt Fen Flowers, nestled in the stunning Norfolk Broads, is an ever-growing five-acre flower farm. Since we took over in 2019, the land hasn’t seen a single drop of pesticide or artificial fertiliser. Instead, we rely on natural manure to nourish our soil, and we've made it our mission to prioritise biodiversity and wildlife conservation in everything we do.
We believe in the power of nature, and we've learned that by embracing the pests that damage our flowers we can attract the predators that keep them in check, all without resorting to harmful chemicals. Most farmers spend their lives trying to keep life away from their crops, we’re different.
When our flowers are in full bloom the buzzing of bees fills the air. Sadly, bee populations have plummeted by a staggering 25%, primarily due to habitat loss and the use of pesticides in conventional farming. Here at Burnt Fen Flowers, we sow over 30,000 flower seeds from nearly 100 different varieties to create a diverse and vibrant ecosystem that supports not only bees but all forms of wildlife.
We're proud to be part of the solution and we invite you to join us on our journey to create a sustainable and beautiful world.

100% BRITISH
British flowers emit 86% less CO2 compared to imported flowers that come from Africa and South America in refrigerated planes. Ours are all from Norfolk!

NO PESTICIDES & NO CHEMICALS
The number of insects across the UK has declined by 60% in the last 20 years because of an over-reliance on pesticides and chemicals. We use none of either!

These flowers are just amazing. A beautiful assortment that arrived in pristine condition- the packaging is brilliant. I couldn't be happier!
The supermodel of Spring flowers, these tall, bold, exquisite tulips are centre stage blooms...unusual varieties in vibrant colours they definitely move with water top-ups and feed as though they're sashaying across the table.
They smell divine, too. And they're SO photogenic!
Photos are a full week's record of their progress.
My Burnt Fen Tulips arrived promptly. They were beautifully and sustainably packaged. They lasted just over a week, dying in a spectacular and graceful shower of glorious coloured petals.
Best online flower delivery service in the UK. All grown on their own farm in Norfolk. Love to support British businesses! Beautiful flowers
Ordered my first bunch of flowers from Burnt Fen and they arrived beautifully packaged and have lasted over a week. Also had great communication with them. I have already ordered again!
I was excited to receive my first order and it more than delivered. Incredible dahlias, well packaged. Will get Burnt Fen flowers again and again and again ❤️
Bought a subscription and these flowers are better than any other company I've used in London. I love how they are British grown too and you get the most amazing bunches through your door every week. Great customer service as well, super fast to reply!
As a florist that strives to work seasonally and sustainably I look no further than the wonders of Burnt Fen Flowers to source magical produce throughout the British growing season! Alfie, Dash and team really go above and beyond to make sure they delivery the best blooms to you. They are firmly at the top of my list of growers I order from and I can't recommend them enough!
Excellent customer service, and my daughter in law loved the flowers - the word she used was beeauutiful! Most unusual selection of flowers.
ALFIE
My name’s Alfie, I grew up in London and the Norfolk Broads and have always had a passion for the outdoors. The wildlife here is truly remarkable, and I'm constantly in awe of the unusual insects and birds I encounter.
I worked for six years as a gardener in London, before deciding to go back to Norfolk and start a flower farm from scratch.
I started Burnt Fen Flowers in 2019 and have been following biodynamic principles, enjoying living with the seasons and creating a field of colour and life.
I've learnt that transforming this land requires patience and that nature cannot be rushed. Even so, I remain enamoured by its beauty and its mysteries.
As my dad once said, "Alfie was born in the mud. The worse the weather, the happier he gets."
