The Flower Lady has been part of Herne Hill and Brixton life on Railton Road for years, with a selection worth stopping for and prices Elaine keeps fair. Open six days a week, closed Mondays.
Elaine runs the shop herself, and has become a fixture of this part of Railton Road. She talks people through their ideas, remembers what suits an occasion, and makes each arrangement by hand. Whether it is a belated birthday, a party or a funeral, the flowers are put together for the person they are meant for.
