June is one of our favourite months at The Blossomist, gardens are bursting with colour, bees are busy, and the best of British summer flowers are in full, glorious bloom. If you're looking to send a bouquet this month or treat yourself to something fresh and floral, June is packed with beautiful choices.
Here’s our guide to the top 10 seasonal flowers in June, all perfect for adding colour, fragrance, and joy to your home or gifting moments.
🌿 1. Scented Stocks
In bloom: Late spring through summer
Fragrant, nostalgic, and bursting with cottage garden charm, scented stocks are a June essential. Their clove-like scent fills a room, and their soft pastel hues make them ideal for romantic and rustic bouquets.
Perfect for: Summer weddings, thoughtful gifts, or adding charm to your kitchen table.
🌸 2. British Alstroemeria
In bloom: Late spring to autumn
Also known as Peruvian lilies, British alstroemeria are beloved for their long vase life and colourful, speckled petals. Locally grown varieties are especially vibrant and fresh this time of year.
Perfect for: Birthdays, thank-you gifts, and long-lasting arrangements.
🌻 3. British Sunflowers
In bloom: Early June to September
Nothing says summer like the golden face of a British sunflower. They radiate joy and make a bold statement whether arranged solo or paired with wildflowers.
Perfect for: Brightening someone's day, graduation gifts, or celebrating summer.
🌺 4. Sweet Peas
In bloom: May to July
These delicate, ruffled blooms are not only beautiful but also incredibly fragrant. Sweet peas are often grown by small-scale British growers and add a whimsical, romantic touch to any bouquet.
Perfect for: Wedding flowers, new baby gifts, or a fragrant treat for yourself.
🌼 5. Delphiniums
In bloom: June to August
Known for their towering spikes of blue, white, and purple, delphiniums bring drama and elegance to summer arrangements. They’re a classic choice for seasonal flower bouquets in June.
Perfect for: Statement displays, country-style arrangements, and big celebrations.
🌷 6. Peonies (Late Season)
In bloom: April to mid-June
While their season is short, June still offers the tail end of peony perfection. These lush, romantic blooms are a firm favourite for a reason — and if you're lucky, you can still enjoy them early in the month.
Perfect for: Anniversaries, luxury gifts, or peony lovers everywhere.
🌼 7. Nigella (Love-in-a-Mist)

Nigella is a delicate, whimsical bloom with lacy petals and a star-like shape. Sometimes called Love-in-a-Mist, it adds a romantic, vintage feel to any bouquet.
Perfect for: Wildflower flower bouquets
🌸 8. Cornflowers

With their brilliant blue hue and wild charm, cornflowers are a true British summer favourite. They bring a natural, meadow-like feel to floral designs.
Perfect for: Rustic flower bouquets
🌿 9. Larkspur

Perfect for: Romantic bouquets, centrepieces, and summer celebrations.
🌸 10. Scabious
In bloom: June to October
Scabious, or pincushion flower, offers soft petals, gentle colours, and a lovely wildflower feel. Available in shades of lilac, burgundy, white and pink, they're popular in British summer bouquets.
