Chris Jones - CJ Floral Gallery

Although art and design has been a lifelong interest (he was originally a wildlife artist) floristry has been Chris’ passion for over 15 years since his mother, a florists herself, encouraged him to help out after school.  This lead to mother and son running a successful business in Essex for 5 years.  Chris had well and truly got the bug and soon realised there was a huge as yet untapped potential in creative floral design.

Chris worked briefly in Harrods floristry department before joining the wholesale floristry trade.  One Christmas Chris started his own floral demonstrations and soon found he had a natural flair that his colleagues and the public appreciated. 

Chris was ‘spotted’ by celebrated florist Paula Pryke who gave Chris his first taste of truly creative floral design, which as well as introducing him to major society and celebrity clients, allowed him the freedom to develop his unique style.  Chris continues to be in demand by all the major floristry designers and decorators as well as pursuing his own business, working on every type of floral installation and event from weekly contracts to the grandest royal occasions.

Now a well-known demonstrator, Chris helps promote floristry through lifestyle and garden shows, corporate and charity events.  He has also demonstrated throughout the world, creating a following in the rest of Europe, The Channel Islands and Japan.  Chris is also committed to education and ensures that there is always time to teach at many leading floristry schools. Recently Chris has begun writing, designing and styling for publications. His flair for design has led to offers of set dressing for television and film, including the Oscar nominated Richard III.  He appears frequently in front of the television cameras as a floral expert and interior designer.
