Susanna Jarrett Susanna Jarrett
Susanna started "Tiger Rose" in 1990 as a small flower shop in Pimlico and spent time teaching at the Paula Pryke Flower School. This was at a time when floral designers were challenging conventional floristry and were bold enough to mix dark red roses with blackberries in hand tied posies and fill tin pails with cornflowers, cow parsley and buttercups.

Now based in Hampshire, Susanna and her team bring ground breaking floristry that is exciting and memorable.

Susanna teaches our Flower Design classes.
