About Us

Floralsilk is a thriving family business offering a stunning range of ‘silk’ flowers, trees, plants & potted arrangements. Today, in place of silk, our products are crafted from the finest selection of raw materials, creating a beautiful, everlasting display which is so true-to-life, all your senses will be fooled.

Thanks to our experienced buyers and our talented design & production team, not only do we offer the most comprehensive range of artificial flowers, trees & plants in the UK but we are always first to market with the latest trends. Our range will inspire you or your customers to add the finishing touch to any space… interior or exterior.

Why choose Floralsilk?

Our guiding principle is that your business is our business. We are specialists in our market & our product so that you don’t have to be. We recognise that you’re looking for a solution, not simply ‘a quality product’ at a ‘competitive price’ (which is a given), that is why we create enticing visual displays of artificial décor tailor-made to your requirements. Be inspired.

Our History

From the humble beginnings of a family garage, Floralsilk is now a blooming (!) operation still run by the extended family. We were founded by John O’Flaherty, who is still the Chairman today. His inspiration for the business came from his wife, Gail, who commented several times on the poor quality of artificial flowers available in the UK. John seized this opportunity and hence Floralsilk was born. Since then our passion for artificial flowers has revolutionised the industry, lifting the quality from what it once was to the incredibly realistic, beautifully crafted products found in our range today.

Where to find us

We operate from our sales office & showroom in Reading, Berkshire and our warehouse & production facility in Bourne, Lincolnshire. Our sales office is conveniently located, less than 5 minutes drive from junction 11 on the M4 and Reading is less than half an hour from London Paddington and London Heathrow.
