About me..

I’m Chris, florist and founder of Flowers by Darlo.

My flower journey began in the heart of Manhattan’s bustling flower district, where I built my foundation working on everything from large-scale events to beautiful intimate weddings. It was a fast-paced, creative world, and I was lucky to learn and train alongside some of the most talented international florists.

In 2020, I returned home to Ireland and co-founded Bunch Beag, a small project delivering feel good flower jars across Dublin. That chapter introduced me to the floral industry in Ireland, and Flowers by Darlo naturally grew from there.

Rooted in sustainability and a passion for Irish-grown flowers, supporting Irish-grown flowers is at the heart of what I do. I take great care in working closely with local growers, building relationships to ensure that the flowers I source are not only of the highest quality, but also reflect the very best of each season.

With my small but mighty team, Flowers by Darlo specialises in weddings, events, and hotel displays. Each arrangement is crafted with care, character, and a commitment to working with nature. From striking floral designs to elegant bridal bouquets, our flowers are grown with love and styled with intention.
