Ever So Special
A Sparkhill shop on the Warwick Road, doing same-day across the city.

Ever So Special is the only florist in this guide on the Warwick Road through Sparkhill, which puts it in the middle of one of the busiest and least documented retail corridors in Birmingham. Sparkhill and Springfield run continuously into Hall Green on one side and Balsall Heath on the other, the population density is among the highest in the city, and the flower trade here is substantial and almost entirely absent from published round-ups. The shop offers same-day delivery across Birmingham from the Warwick Road unit, and positions itself as a trusted local florist for the surrounding wards. On the published evidence it is a straightforward neighbourhood shop doing conventional work at prices suited to its catchment, which is neither a criticism nor a compliment so much as a description of what most flower shops are. I have scored it modestly and want to be clear why: there is a website and a phone number and a delivery claim, but no prices, no opening hours, no founding date and no meaningful review record. That is more than D Florist publishes and less than Petals of Madinah does. Where the evidence is thin, I have scored toward the middle rather than assuming either quality or its absence.
The shop trades from 152 Warwick Road in Sparkhill with same-day flower delivery across Birmingham. It presents itself as a local Sparkhill florist serving the surrounding eastern and southern wards. No prices, opening hours, delivery cut-off or founding date is published on the site or in the directory record.
Best for
Anyone in Sparkhill, Springfield or Sparkbrook who wants to use a shop on their own high street rather than order from three miles away.
What I would order
Phone and give a budget. There is not enough published to order from with confidence otherwise, and the conversation will be more productive than the website.
Worth knowing
No published prices, hours, cut-off or founding date, and no substantial review record. Ring before relying on it for a same-day order, since the cut-off is not stated anywhere.
The only florist in this guide on the Warwick Road through Sparkhill.
Who it is not for
Anyone who needs to know the cost before calling. Fiesta Flowers in Acocks Green publishes its bestseller prices and is two miles east.
How it compares
Petals of Madinah and D Florist are the other two shops in this guide serving Birmingham's eastern communities. Petals of Madinah is the best documented of the three and the only one open on a Sunday.
Getting there
Warwick Road, Sparkhill, on the corridor between the Stratford Road and Hall Green. Very frequent buses run along it; Small Heath and Tyseley stations are each about a mile away. Parking on the Warwick Road is difficult, so use the side streets.
Where this assessment comes from
Desk research only, and limited. The address, phone and same-day delivery claim come from the shop's own site and are corroborated by local directory listings. No prices, hours or reviews are published, and the middling scores reflect that uncertainty rather than a finding either way.
Sources consulted: The business's own website, Thomson Local's Small Heath and Sparkhill florist listings, and Birmingham trade directory records carrying the Warwick Road address and telephone number.
