Bunchnote

Flowers that know what you meant.

Tell us about the person. We choose the flowers, tell you why each one is in there, and send the bouquet as a link with your message and your voice inside it. No app, no address, nothing to post.

Step one of four

Finding the words is the hard part.

Tell us how you feel and who is making you feel it. Say it the way you’d say it out loud — messy is fine, a sentence is plenty. We’ll find the flowers that say it back.

Go on — it’s the real thing


Eleven people, and what they got back.

Every one of these is real output. The sentence and the message are the sender’s; the flowers, and the reason for each of them, are what came back. Nothing here was written to look good on this page.

When there is nothing to sayMy friend Priya's mum died last Tuesday. I've started three messages and deleted all of them. I don't want to say the wrong thing but saying nothing is worse.

From a long way awayI've been working in Dubai for three years and I send my mum money every month. She never mentions it. I want her to know the money isn't the point and I've never been able to say that on the phone.

Nobody keeps a text message.

They keep this one. It opens on a link, it says who it is from and why each flower is in it, and it does not disappear up a scroll.

Four steps, about two minutes.

01

Say it badly

One sentence, however it comes out. No categories, no occasion dropdown, nothing to get right.

02

Get a bunch back

Eight varieties chosen for what you actually said, each with a line about why it is in there.

03

Arrange it yourself

Move the stems around until it looks like something you would hand over. It is your bouquet.

04

Send a link

They open it on their phone. No app, no account, no address needed — just the flowers and your words.

Someone is on your mind right now.

You do not have to know what to say to them. That is the part we are for.

Start with a sentence

Flowers are chosen from a real catalogue of stock. Nothing is sent until you say so.
