Stone & Stem
studio florist & growers, based in Hampshire
We have a serious passion for flowers! We are not only floral designers, but also sustainable flower growers, creating effortless floral designs through a distinctive yet adaptable style, with stems grown by us.
Hello! Iβm Millie
Founder of Stone & Stem - Iβm so excited to welcome you here!
Previously an event planner at Goodwood Estate, I have been a florist for the last 6 years, combining my knowledge of luxury events within my floral design business.
Stone & Stem specialises in effortlessly styled and romantic florals, with refined design. We create in rhythm and harmony with the seasons, using stems grown by us.
Floral Designers & Growers
I am fortunate to be teaming up alongside my green fingered mum, Anne, who works behind the scenes to grow an array of beautiful flowers and foliage.
We choose to grow flowers and foliage that I love to use in my designs, and actively seek out differing floral varieties that are unique.
Throughout the year, I incorporate these stems into my arrangements, alongside flowers and foliage from local flower farms and growers, too.
Signature Style
I believe flowers have the incredible power to evoke emotion, tell stories, and transform spaces into something truly memorable.
My designs are always created through a distinctive yet adaptable style, encompassing the perfect harmony of effortless yet refined.
I describe my design style as a combination of romantic, abundant, effortless and considered.
The floral arrangements created are always there to make an impact, whilst also remaining organic in their placement, as nature would intend.

Sustainability and environmental responsibility is of the upmost importance to us
We by no means claim to be 100% British, relying on international growers in order to ensure we stay true to our designs, providing our clients with the very best array and standard of ingredients within our work. However, by growing our own flowers and foliage, we reduce the amount of imported stems that we use each year.
We compost all of our green waste, and in time, once the compost is ready, we use this in our flower beds to plant in. We see this as being a full circle journey for our flowers! The studio is also next door to a stable yard, so we use the compost from the horses, too. We then receive top soil from a local farmer, based just down the road from the studio.
When it comes to our mechanics, we avoid the use of floral foam where possible. Most of our mechanics involve using only water or moss, accompanied by re-usable materials such as chicken wire.
