The Great British Bloom Off Episode Four: The Grand Final Recap
In this post we catch up on the grand final of the Great British Bloom Off – that means there are serious spoilers ahead! Want to catch up first? Watch the final over on our IGTV channel.
Wednesday was a very big day: the grand final of the Great British Bloom Off – and grand it was! One of our talented florists was crowned the best of the best in UK floristry. But which one? As the final challenge began any of our artisans could have been the pick of the bunch. Jo, Erica and Charlotte had each taken the top spot once already, with Mike hot on their heels. Over the last three weeks we’ve had peony perfection, bursting bridal bouquets, and fabulous feel good flowers – but who topped the tablescapes, and would it be enough to snag them the Bloom Off crown?
The final challenge: a tablescape
For the final challenge our florists took on their biggest brief yet: tablescapes. Crafting a tablescape is a bit like laying a table, only taken to new extravagant levels. A careful construction of blooms, and sometimes other decorative bits and pieces, a tablescape usually runs the length of the table, totally transforming it. Tablescapes are ideal for dinner parties and special occasions but our florists need to remember the table needs to be functional as well as fabulous – too many tall blooms or towering candles and your showstoppers could turn into a conversation stopper (or a fire hazard!)
As ever the judges were looking for designs that were creative and original, but crafted to perfection.
How did the florists do?

And the winner is…

Charlotte
The Bloom Off champion is crowned
Then came the big moment of the episode (well, the second big moment). After reviewing their notes from the last four weeks the judges were ready to pick the Great British Bloom Off winner, the artisan who’d impressed most across all the challenges – the best of the best in UK floristry.
The judges picked...Charlotte! Her stunning tablescape just clinched it for this talented young florist. Judge Karen Barnes said “The talent on display in this competition really was incredible. Every bouquet and arrangement was a spectacle, and the other judges and I were in awe of some of the designs. However, in two nail biting rounds Charlotte’s amazing work truly stood out to us all, and she was a worthy winner.”
On winning Charlotte the series said: “When I was announced as the winner, I was quite shocked. I knew I was competing against people who are so talented, so I was over the moon when I realised I’d won.” A massive well done Charlotte, we can’t wait to see more of your work.

After crowning the Bloom Off winner Simon praised all of the talented florists in a passionate speech “all four of you are incredible ambassadors for your craft. You have demonstrated that up and down the country there are hundreds of amazing creatives, artisan florists, and you should all be congratulated.”
We couldn’t have put it better ourselves.
