Herbal and edible flowers are making waves in Hong Kong’s sustainable floristry scene. Not only are they beautiful, but they also offer a sensory and culinary experience. Think Tulip Bouquets with mint sprigs or arrangements that include lavender and thyme.

For Mid-Autumn Fruit Baskets, blend in edible blooms like nasturtiums or pansies. These elevate the gifting experience and reduce waste, as everything in the arrangement serves a purpose. Perfect for Welcome Gifts or even Mother’s Day Flowers.

Visit organic farms in the New Territories or Lantau Island that grow these edible flowers — many offer day tours that combine horticulture and cooking. It’s a lovely way to understand the farm-to-florist journey.

Check if your hotel or host can organize a floral tea tasting or edible flower cooking class. These are increasingly popular with eco-conscious tourists and offer a delicious way to experience Hong Kong’s floral bounty.
