OUR STORY

Lambs Flowers was established nearly 40 years ago in Pinchbeck, near Spalding. What originally began as a 4.5 acre field is now an 11 hectare site growing over 25 million stems of flowers each year – all under glass.

We are expert British Flower Growers based in the heart of the Lincolnshire Fens, specialising in growing and sourcing locally grown flowers. We are devoted to ensuring your flower delivery is as fresh as it can possibly. 

What we Grow!

Tulips is our main crop, starting in December finishing in late April - Mid May.

In the spring we also grow Ranunculus and Hyacinths. May brings Stocks followed by a succession of Lisianthus, Antirrhinums and other Summer flowers.  We are always researching and trialing new crops to consider adding to our portfolio.

Sustainable Sourcing 

As well as our own grown products we work closely with high quality local indoor and outdoor flower producers, so they have only travelled a few miles down the road.  

Many of the flowers we supply are grown outdoors so exposed, growing as nature intended them so making them perfectly imperfect.

Ethical Growing

We are small friendly team who pride ourselves on all our working practices, from growing standards to caring for the environment and keeping our carbon footprint as low as it possibly can be. Our stringent conservation and management policy has earned us the LEAF mark accreditation.

All our Tulips are grown Hydroponically,  so just water is used,  eliminating any use of peat helping to preserve our all-important Peat Bogs. Growing on water eliminates any use of pesticides, growing as nature intended and is a lot cleaner and easier to crop.

All the flowers are irrigated using harvested rainwater which has been collected from roof gutters and store in on site reservoirs.

When the flowers need warmth to grow, we have a Biomass heating System, burning end of life wooden pallets and fruit packaging so we
are not producing harmful emissions or burning fossil fuels. When we need to keep the flowers cool, our solar panels assist with the electricity usage.

The Glasshouse used to grow the flowers even have their own
blinds known as thermal screening to keep the heat in. When the sun starts getting stronger, the outside of the glass is whitewashed to keep the heat out, therefore keeping the flowers cool. As I am sure you are all aware Flowers can really be very demanding.
