Another memory from RHS Tatton Flower Show last year.

A July meadow arrangement of pinks and whites with malope, cosmos, gaura, achillea, daucus, snapdragons and sidalcea.

All grown gently in the meadow, and all from seed with the exception of the sidalcea which started life as a few plug plants and is now an enormous swathe of vigorous, reliable, low maintenance perennials. My kind of flower.

Robert’s family also requested a wreath for his funeral, to sit alongside his wellies.

This one used the same flowers. All British grown - narcissi, tulips and alstromeria, eucalyptus and pittosporum and round leaf holly from my tree.

The wreath base was made from bracken foraged from our hedges. It was full of snow when I picked it, and this moisture made it the perfect material to keep the flower stems hydrated during the ceremony.

Bespoke funeral flowers for Robert who spent his days in these boots.

Farewell flowers don’t have to be impersonal, picked out of a catalogue. They can be anything that truly reflects the life that was lived.
In this case, Robert’s family asked me if I could create something with his wellies. He was a farmer and they were well worn.

Ordinarily, I would have used my own flowers grown in the meadow, but with it being January and a foot of snow outside, I used other British stems: scented narcissi from Isles of Scilly, tulips from Lincolnshire and alstromeria from Cornwall.

The arrangement was fully reusable or recyclable - no plastic, no floral foam, and once the flowers have been and gone, the wellies can be refilled with more flowers once again. An everlasting memory.

In June, I was asked to create a series of bowl arrangements for display in one of the show gardens at RHS Tatton. This one was my favourite as I loved the colour palette of caramel, burnt toffee and lilac.

All the flowers were picked from my meadow the day before, including annual phlox in the best n**e tones, campanula lactiflora Loddon Anna (one of my faves), sweet little calendula, sanguisorba and gaura grown from seed the same year, nepeta nuda, bronze fennel, sweet peas (Cathy), veronicastrum, wild grasses and some other bits and bobs I can’t remember.

As I check on the greenhouse one last time this year, I pray that in 2025 the weather is kind, the slugs are few, the customers are many and the flowers are bountiful. 🤞🏻

My diary for 2025 is open and I’d love you to help me fill it with workshops and talks, hen parties and events, team building and seasonal gatherings.

I want to meet more of you and spread the word about the beauty of British flowers, especially mine grown here in Mobberley.

Do you want to learn how to make a meadow box, the perfect hand-tied bouquet, a centrepiece or a spring wreath?

Or learn about what to grow, how and why?

DM me with any idea or suggestion. I’d love to hear from you 💌

My phone threw up this photo as a memory from July 2021 when I was in a glut of dahlias! Oh to be back there, or in the future with the summer flowers. Can’t wait to see bright colours in nature again. Also a good reminder that I *can* grow dahlias when the slugs cut me some slack 🙏🏻

Daylight has been in short supply this weekend. Lots of heavy grey skies and rain, but a welcome, restorative two days, nonetheless. Walks around Mobberley and Tatton Park, baking with the children, an evening out with good friends and time reading my book.

Excitingly, I have a (very) limited number of honesty wreaths available this year.

These wreaths are special. Intricately handcrafted by me, using honesty grown in the meadow.

They’re a statement piece and can be used for many years if cared for properly. I recommend hanging indoors only, for that reason.

To discuss a pre-order, please message me. 💌

I’m not sure if last Thursday in Haworth was real, or just something I read in a book.

Still thinking about the cobbles, candlelight, beaver full moon and the old post office.

As the night is darkening 🕯️

Roses grown under this Cheshire sky.

That’s what makes my flowers different. They aren’t imported from another continent. They aren’t sprayed in pesticides and preservatives. They aren’t wrapped in plastic or stuck into a block of Oasis.

Grown simply, gently and seasonally.

I’m excited to be part of The Farewell Flowers Directory, the number one place to search for natural funeral flowers.

The mission of is to:

🌿 offer a more gentle, personal approach to funeral flowers, an alternative to ‘the catalogue’

🌿 address the problem of plastic waste in funeral flowers (including floral foam)

🌿 create compostable funeral flowers that leave nothing behind

🌿 change perceptions of what funeral flowers can be

I will share more detail about arrangement design and style over the coming weeks, but if funeral flowers are something that you are currently looking for, please get in touch via DM, email or WhatsApp. Full details are on my website 💌

Every year, I question whether to grow sweet peas, particularly as I try to move away from the annuals in favour of perennials. They’re a bit fiddly and I struggle to keep up with the picking, but I’ve just cut the last of the trails for a big corporate order this week and I’m not sure I want to be without their colour and scent. There’s nothing else like them.

Farewell flowers.

I am open to enquiries about funeral flowers every day. I create farewell arrangements that are a bit different to the everyday, wildly beautiful and made with flowers from right here in Cheshire.

Please call, email, WhatsApp or DM to enquire.
