    can you expand on what type of hibiscus flowers you want....


    Do you mean the real ones in bud that when you drop them into a glass of champagne they open...have a look on ebay a small jar containing 12 or so flowers in syrup is about £12 ish


    Or do you mean artificial flowers for decoration purposes...again plenty in the hula style in garlands etc on ebay...or was it something more structured for decoration you were after?


    You probably wouldnt get real hibiscus flowers for a bridal bouquet as they have an incredibly short shelf life and can wilt very quickly.
    frugal October...£41.82 of £40 food shopping spend for the 2 of us!

    2017 toiletries challenge 179 out 145 in ...£18.64 spend

    there are quite a few listed on ebay...
    amazon may also stock them
    other than that I have sometimes seen them a little cheaper in chinese supermarkets...usually the larger ones if you have any within an easy distance to you.

  • They are £9/jar of 11 at Ocado, and a £20 off first £80 spend code for Ocado assuming you would need quite a few jars for your wedding.
