Seasonal garden vase arrangement with local and home grown flowers

November went by so quickly. Lots of bouquet making, and a couple of lovely workshops, freelancing and a few moments in the garden.
November saw out the fleeting peony season, the end of my garden sweet peas (they’ve gone to seed - sorry to the last couple of sweet-pea special requests I couldn’t do!), and the first of the dahlias coming through in the cutting garden.

Life was a little too busy and I need to manage some weeds out there 🌸

The weather in Melbourne was bananas as per usual, muggy, hot, cold, scorching and wet, and that was just yesterday 🙃

Looking forward to to some beautiful, select weddings over summer, and a special wreath workshop coming up soon (link in bio)

When I set out to create a cutting garden for my floral studio, I kept a few reasons in mind.

I wanted it to be a beautiful, scented place to walk through, and see bees and pollinators attracted to the yard.

I wanted to be able to pick an abundant bouquet with varied florals and foliage everyday.

I wanted to understand the seasons better, because at the time I felt I’d become disconnected from them.

As I progressed with my floral design business, other things became important.
I wanted be able to include botanicals that were not sprayed with chemicals.
I wanted to value healthy, unusual stems as opposed to perfectly manicured ones, and I wanted those botanicals to be completely in season to reflect the time of year.

Getting to know where market flowers were grown was not easy. There is no country of origin labelling, no way for the average person to understand the chemicals used on what you’re handling. Over time I built a knowledge bank of the signals to look for to discern imported florals (that is another story!)

95% of the florals I’ve used over the last few years and more, have been locally grown. Most of those flowers hail from the area around my studio (peninsula/south east), Monbulk area and at times, Queensland and WA.

I’m happy that this featured bouquet is almost all grown on my suburban plot, with hydrangea, sweet pea, asparagus fern, foxglove and roses. The beautiful butterfly Delphinium and peonies are Vic grown. I’m learning a lot and I’m so glad that I’ve found clients and friends who’ve seen past cookie-cutter perfection and embrace a more natural, slow and meandering beauty with me!

Thanks for being here xo

September ♥︎

The arrival of spring and a new season of blooms. Spring botanicals are saturated with colour, adding romance and a little something extra after the winter season.

September for was all about personalised artisan flower deliveries, workshops, flower subscriptions and wedding prep!

A small but positive change to the business model has happened. Lupin Botanical pop up market stalls are on hold for the foreseeable future! Workshops, teaching, our flower delivery service and events have taken a front seat and require precious time, so you won’t find me at local craft markets this season. I’ll be sure to update you if there’s a pop-up in the future but for now, there is a much-needed direction of energy onto the core aspects of the business 🤓
Thanks to the wonderful community of customers and artisans I met in the craft market world, some of who remain lovely friends!

In the cutting patch, dahlia tubers have been split are still everywhere 😅 most have been planted out into the available beds. Sweet peas are beginning to come through and there have been proteas, pincushion, thryp, blushing bride, daffodils and beautiful Irises flowering (a new fave for the garden). Blossom is coming and going and soon, before we know it, it will be summer!

I have quite a few workshops in the pipeline, and will drop dates as they are released to the public. I’ll also be working on a wreath collection for the festive times ✨

Thanks for coming along on the flower journey!

Beautiful Leonie.

Leonie wanted a dark and moody bouquet and was open to all botanicals within her brief. A classic rounded bouquet with loads of texture and personality.

A favourite thing is to create your personal bridal flowers. This set in green and white represent the end of winter and the start of spring.

Did you know there’s a trick to getting a bouquet to stand up on its own? It’s all about how you place and cut the stems. A hidden floristry trick 🌿
