What's happening this month in the Flower Club online?

Cut Flower Garden

It's a busy month in the garden. Yes, I know it's cold, dreary February but then more reason to put the boots on and get outside.

Yesterday, I sowed some Cornflowers and Nigella seeds as this year I wish to cut Cornflowers for drying.

These are 'Hardy Annuals' so pretty much don't need any heat to grow. You can sow these now using the 'Winter Sowing methods.

I also finally got all of my Sweet Peas sown and they too are outside.

Flower Arranging

On Thursday night I'll be doing an all round display using some of the beautiful Catkins that are around along with winter flowering Jasmine. It's a gentle nod towards Spring awakening the garden.

The flower club 'PICKED' is OPEN to new members until the end of February. It then closes until August to give me time with the members.

Have you sown Sweet Peas? They're honestly the easiest flower and perfect for those table bottles or jam jars.

Gardening for Flowers - PICKED FLOWER CLUB

🌷Are you 'Gardening for Flowers'?🌻 Tomorrow we start the 'Cut Flower' growing in our PICKED FLOWER CLUB with an introduction to the tools and materials to get started. I'll be sharing my list of cut flowers along with my reasons for growing them (from a Floristry point of view). 🌻I'll be covering a range of ways for you to grow some flowers for yourself be it in a pot or plot. I've been lucky enough to have entered the world of Horticulture upon leaving school working at plant nurseries growing cut flowers. I've had a whole career of all things flowery and I'm proud to be qualified to degree level along with being experienced as a Lecturer in Horticulture and Floristry. Growing flowers was something I discovered as a little girl and have always enjoyed taking a seed, planting it and watching it bloom. I'm now lucky that I can grow flowers specifically for arranging and bringing into the home. 🌻Choosing flowers for their colours, textures and roles in design are all apart of my joy in gardening for flowers. We kick off tomorrow at 2.00pm in the PICKED FLOWER CLUB.

Every morning! I guess I should move them. I get it! It's winter there's not much for her to do outside but leave my flowers alone!!

🌼🌻My online Flower Club Members.🌻🌼 I've added some of the videos from over the year into an archived file. I'll create some worksheets to go with them. Looking back they make me realise how far I've come over the past 12 months. Looking forward to continuing on this journey. A big 'THANK-YOU' to all those members who've continued to support whilst I literally 'grow'.

Autumn Wreath making tomorrow. Who's coming? I cannot wait to see your finished designs. 🍂

How it all began.....

“to me flowers are happiness”

(Steffano Gabbana)

Hello, I’m Tina the garden florist. This little business is literally my dream combining my Floristry, Horticultural knowledge and design skills to create … floral arrangements all year round.

My love for plants and flowers began as a child through the cultivation of a small garden plot. Regular visits to the garden centre with my pocket money ensured a little oasis crammed with as many plants as possible and a pure haven for wildlife. It’s this love for garden flowers that’s reflected in my work today. My natural environment provides me with immense inspiration and I’m often found foraging around or digging in the garden! It’s this love for garden flowers with their twisted stems, colourful blooms and subtle scents that I capture within my floral designs and utilise to inspire within my teaching.
