I’m Nicky Best, the designer behind AXL Blooms. After a decade creating urban jungle arrangements in South London, I swapped city concrete for the wild edges of east Kent and took my unapologetically modern style with me.

Why AXL?
Because flowers make me happy and I believe they can do something far deeper for my clients: honour heritage, mark memories, rebel against beige tradition. Every stem is chosen for meaning as well as beauty.

I also work as sustainably as possible, reusing materials and avoiding floral foam wherever I can.  Artful doesn’t have to mean wasteful.

What I value

1. Inclusivity – Everyone is welcome.

2. Diversity – Celebrating all stories and styles.

3. Environmental thinking – Sustainable, mindful practices.

4. Transparency – Honest communication and process.
