About Us

We are Ros & Tim Nichols who together had a dream to open a flower shop "RoseTime Flowers"

The name cleverly combining our names....

Ros with an 'e' to make Rose

Tim with an 'e' to make Time

Tim is the florist and had worked in an independent Florist and Greengrocer shop from leaving school to 2000, when he was made redundant. He quickly found a job as a van driver until he was head-hunted to work for the supermarket Safeway in 2002 who were opening a 'Flower Market' in its stores. Then Safeway became Morrisons. Tim worked his way to being Supervisor in the Produce and Flowers department.  Morrisons then began converting some of their flagship stores to 'Stores of the Future' and started to introduce 'The Flower Shop'. Tim was asked if he would train the staff in each store to create simple bouquets. So he trained to be a "trainer" and spent 2 years travelling the South West and South Wales, once again working with flowers. During this time Tim entered the national Mastercraft Competition for floristry and was in the runner up position two years in a row. 

Then the opportunity came along to own his own business and RoseTime Flowers became a reality.

Ros has a number of roles! Ros with her professional hat on, is the Accountant. The budget maker, the organiser of everything financial, the administrator, the one who gets things done if it involves money or paperwork. Ros wearing her creative hat, is a photographer at heart. A lover of still life and flower photography, just being able to be involved in florist shop is a dream. Being a flower arranger too means that she can help at busy times with the floristry side of the business too. But only after being trained by Tim to make sure her skills are up to his high standards.

In January 2018, we had met for a coffee in town and Tim said that the old cake shop in Bampton Street was up for let. Let's go get the details I say.......

And so the story begins....... A shop downstairs for Tim.... A studio upstairs for Ros........ Another room for storage and even more storage in the loft space.

Could this be the ideal location.

On the 8th March 2018 we opened our doors and haven't looked back.
