Thistle is an independent florist based in a bustling neighbourhood on Bishopthorpe Road, York.
​
Kali first came to York for university, but it wasn’t long before the city captured her heart and became home. After spending years working in one of York’s much-loved local coffee spots, she decided it was time to bring another lifelong passion into the city: flowers. Inspired by a childhood spent learning to grow alongside her grandmother in the garden, and more recently through tending her own allotment, Kali has turned that love of growing into Thistle; a florist rooted in the joy, beauty and seasons of nature. Step inside, and you’ll find flowers chosen with care and a little piece of the countryside brought into the heart of York.

The neighbourhood florist
You can find Thistle on Bishopthorpe Road, where it sits across the road from a green grocers and brunch spot, and next to an independent lifestyle store and coffee shop.
​
We pride ourselves in being independently owned with locally sourced and grown flowers.
