The Floral Box: Darlington's Trusted Local Florist Since 1986

For nearly 40 years, The Floral Box has been the beating heart of floristry in Darlington. Established in 1986, we have grown from a local favourite into one of the town's most respected names in floral design, known for our quality, reliability, and traditional values.

We are not just a website, we are a real, brick-and-mortar team based right here in Cockerton. Boasting decades of combined experience, our skilled florists care about every single stem. When you order from us, you aren't dealing with a faceless call centre, you are dealing with true local experts.

A Tradition of Excellence

Over the years, trends have come and gone, but our commitment to quality has never wavered. We believe in "proper" floristry, generous bouquets, fresh seasonal stems, and hand-crafted techniques that have stood the test of time.

Whether we are creating a cheerful birthday bouquet, a grand wedding installation, or a sensitive funeral tribute, we apply the same level of care and craftsmanship that has kept our customers coming back for generations.
