Description


Milli Proust is inspired by the way plants grow in the wild, and she loves working with what she grows, creating romantic and playful designs for weddings, events, brands and personal clients. All of her crops are all grown in rhythm with nature, and are completely chemical-free in a passionate effort to protect our surrounding wildlife.

In January 2017, she made the move from London, where she was born and raised, to a deeply rural pocket of West Sussex. It may be only an hour back to the city by train, but it often feels so much further away than that. She fell in love with her pocket of countryside, deep in the woods, growing as much beauty as she could. In the few years of making this her home, she has learnt to see the seasons change, not just from winter to spring, from spring to summer, but from week to week, each and every day bringing new promise, change and subtle shift.

When she is not tending to the crops or creating and installing floral work, she works as an actress for radio, stage, and television.

Praise For…


 "There are so many flowery books on offer, each perhaps with their own perspective but it’s rare to find one that compels you to read cover to cover and then refer back...Until we master her techniques, we’re happy to read on (and again) and keep trying." -Clare Coulson, Gardenista



"Through determination, and a commitment to no-till farming, Proust has transformed the landscape into a paradise of vegetation — and created a thriving floral design business in the process." -Carolyn Asome, New York Times Style Magazine
