This week was the last full flower delivery for @annasflowerfarm and my Year of Flowers customers. Next month will be a selection of our most treasured chrysanthemums and dried elements… but for this month, we filled their buckets with all the gloriousness of autumn - dahlias, chrysanthemums, salvias, rudbeckias, cosmos and a riot of seasonal foliage all grown at @annasflowerfarm and @surmium came to the studio to film my monthly arranging tutorial. Look at those colours.
Autumn has whizzed by a blur of events and I don’t feel like I’ve taken a moment to pause and really appreciate all the beautiful material I get to work with, so I’m going to cherish each stem before the frosts and I’ll have this video to look back on once the season is over…
Watch with the sound on… 💚💫 A privilege to set up these ceremonial urns for Laurie and John @caiuscollege to the sound of their choir practicing…
There was a food theme to all the arrangements for the wedding, with 13 different herbs for the reception centerpieces…. So I couldn’t resist the urge to use artichokes in the urns… (wishing there was an artichoke emoji right now!).

British summer in a bowl… 13 different bowl centerpiece arrangements for this weekend’s wedding, each with its own herb foliage base (this was the top table with lavender). Full of movement, texture and scent and locally grown flowers by @annasflowerfarm, me, @themidnightgarden and roses from @therealflowerco.
