As an independent, family-owned business, we have supported generations of North Staffordshire families since 1905. We provide a comprehensive service with the close personal involvement of our funeral directors throughout.

H&R Florists was established in 1999, by two friends who decided to open their own business. Following many busy years, in 2017 one partner left to pursue a new career path, leaving Paula and long standing staff to continue building the business.

The flowers produced by H&R have built a reputation for a friendly service and beautiful floral arrangements, with loyal customers who return back to the shop time and time again.
