Is it just me that gets way too excited about going to work on a Monday 😆.
I find growing so satisfying, and I have a thing for neat and tidy, I wish the ocd spread to the house 😆.

As this was so popular last week I will be doing bunches again thos week.
Orders in by 12 on Friday 10th Nov.
Thank you 😊

Love them or hate them but chrysanthemum are the in season British bloom to fill your home with now. Gone are the brash super market staples replaced by gorgeous rich colour's such as avignon pink, named the cafe au lait of dahlias.
Not only are they stunning they last such a long time in the vase what's not to love.
I will be picking £12 bunches for this weekend, order in by 12pm Friday 3rd

A beautiful throw back to a summer wedding

I have my last wedding of the season this weekend which will have a very autumnal feel which is perfect for October.
I love creating using flowers grown by me in tune with the seasons full of colour and scent.
Here's to next year, which is already looking busy.

08/10/2023

It was such a lovely day on my dried flower class, I absolutely love seeing everyone's creativity.
Thank you to my mum for so many naturally dyed ribbons. Blackberry was a big winner, and apple leaves, which made a beautiful yellow, also the corn dolly wreath rings, which were so popular if anyone wanted one to make your own wreath please let me know as I can post them.

It's been a dream to bring old traditions into the now, and working with my mum using materials grown and dried by myself or foraged from our land really makes me so happy

This time of year gets me so excited for all the things to come next year. The dewy mornings and freshness in the air make me want to start clearing summer annuals, making new beds, and sowing seeds. The flowers are on a second wind after some cooler days, and everything is looking lush. Jobs get done that in the heat of the summer are just unbearable, and my ocd for neat and tidy is starting to get back on track 😆

Not going to say this wedding wasn't a challenge in early Summer.
A beautiful natural British display in Red, whites and black was quite tricky but the more I looked around me the more I found, from black ball cornflowers to red beech leaves and everything that went in between. Set at the beautiful .
And matched perfectly with Sarah's beautiful bespoke dress.

The beautiful berwick Church for Ed and Jess's wedding day in July.
It is such a pleasure to be able to make people's vision come true, not that I do much, the flowers do all the talking.

I love my new confetti labels 😍
As much as this is a labour of love, you just can't beat natural petal confetti.
I also can't waste anything, so if I can turn it into something beautiful even better.

13/07/2023

Wow, what a beautiful evening spent picking flowers, about 1500 picked for this weekends orders. Thank you to my mum for helping. She definitely earned herself a piece of cake at today. Also, thank you to , not only for picking but for capturing the most beautiful photos. You are one very talented lady.

I love all the colourful weddings this year ❤️.
Do we think next year will be the same ?

What's your favourite colour combo ?

This all red and green bridal bouquet was for a wedding renewal yesterday.
The customer asked for small petite flowers, nothing bulbous in only those colours, which I think turned out pretty gorgeous

🏵️ HARVEST TIME 🏵️

Very soon I will be making the trip to in Herstmonceux East Sussex, to harvest some of my raw ingredients that have been basking in the sun since spring this year. They are now ready to be prepped and saturated for my very special limited summer batch.

If you are interested in coming along to see the garden, and to support the harvest this year for Menteath, and for a special price on my summer batch, please DM with your details 🌿 Note - harvest will take place at Dawn when florals are just opening with the sun where they are at their most fragrant. This will be an early one but so worth it 🏵️

A very orange wedding from a few weeks ago, i love how perfectly the orange pops in a very green beech wood scene.
It really is so special to be a part of someone bug day.

27/06/2023

There's a definite trend for bright colours this year, and I can see why.

The start to this year has been amazing. I see more orders each year, and those orders are getting bigger.
This is great for growers all over the country and hopefully means a big change in the way florists look at growers.
Unfortunately, the weather dictates when alot of our flowers are ready and this year is definitely slow but I've reached out to a couple of local growers in the hope that we can join forces to be able to offer amazing quality but in the quantity florists are after and in more varieties.
Thank you for already supplying me with some of your blooms, and I look forward to working with .
Let the collaboration begin.

It's alot of hard work year round to grow flowers to sell and we wouldn't have it any other way but there's alot of growers who aren't helpful and can actually be quite bitchy and horrible seeing competition instead of opertunity, I prefer the later and making friends along the way.
Also, I shout out to who has always been there when I need her

This week has been about farewell flowers.
I feel very privileged every time im asked to make such special pieces and knowing I've grown picked and made each piece using eco sustainable methods makes me very happy.
I also know these pieces are unique and define the season we are in.

Living spring wreath class with friends in the glorious sunshine.
Absolutely love how amazingly beautiful each wreath is and all made from scratch, starting with the willow base to choosing and cutting the flowers.

04/04/2023

Now that's what I'm talking about when someone says spring bouquet.
This reminds me of antique sunshine if that's such a thing, the smell is incredible and you just can't get a bouquet like this unless you order from a local flower farmer.
This is the very beginning of the season and each week is only going to get better.
