What we love to grow - Roses. We love roses here at TDW. In fact, we love them so much we are more than doubling our collection for 2025!

Some of our favourites so far are Roald Dahl (1, 4, 6), Champagne Moment (3, 4), Blue Moon (1, 2) and Hot Chocolate (5)

What we love to grow - Starry flowers! (Astrantia and Daucus).

We love the shape of these blooms, and they way they add extra texture and structure to bouquets. The bright colour of Astrantia make them look like little jewels! And Daucus looks like a explosion of tiny stars. So beautiful. Do you grow either of these? We'd love to hear your experiences!

What we love to grow - Cosmos. If you don't love the dancing, delicate Cosmos then honestly, I'm not sure we can be friends 😂

Fizzy Rose Picotee and White Cupcakes are favourites here. I wonder if the Orange Cosmos Sulphureus will make a comeback in 2025...

What we love to grow - Tulips 🌷

Tulips bring such a blase of colour and joy to the start of the season. They are incredibly versatile, varied in shape and colour, and oh so pretty! With early, mid and late flowering varieties the tulip season can last for months.

Some of our favourite varieties are Angelique, Dream Touch, Menton and Charming Lady.

What we love to grow - Phlox.

Phlox can be a bit tricky to grow, but we think it's worth it for these pretty blooms. They add beautiful movement to bouquets, and the two tone flowers can bring together a colour palette beautifully. We grow 'Cherry Caramel', 'Creme Brulee' and 'Isabellina'.

What we love to grow - Geums 🧡❤️💛🩷

They come in so many different, vibrant colours, and flower for ages. 'Totally Tangerine' (3) has incredible stem length and a zesty colour that can't help but cheer you up on a gloomy day! 'Mai Tai' (5) is a understated bloom, with beautiful colour variegation in it's petals. It pares really well with so many other lovely flowers. We also grow 'Lady Strathden' (yellow), 'Mrs Bradshaw' (red), 'Tempo Rose' (pink) and 'Coral Tempest' (coral red). As geums are perennial they should just keep better better and better each year, with very little input from us - winner!

What we love to grow: Alliums, exploding into riotous colour in Spring like floral fireworks - what's not to love?! We particularly enjoy growing Drumstick (1), Purple Rain (2) and Purple Sensation (3). We think they look great with other Spring flowers too. Do you enjoy growing Alliums?

What we love to grow:

Snapdragons or Antirrhinum, are majestic spire shaped flowers. Most that we grow are also really scented and they are without doubt making an appearance in 2025.

We love the Chantilly, Madame Butterfly and Potomac varieties. We will also be trying some of the Double Shot series this year.

Kicking off "Flowers we love to grow" with these absolute showstoppers.
Oh how we love Ranunculus 😍
These special blooms come in a wide range of colours and they flower from mid spring to early summer. They have a reputation for being a bit of a diva to grow but we think they are 100% worth it.

Life on the farm lately...
❄️ Doggo giving the last of the flowers a quick quality check (sniff!)
❄️ Celebrating the end of the season by arranging with Kirsten! Loved this arrangement 👏
❄️ Seedlings looking promising for next year's blooms! 🤞
❄️ Snowberries coming into their own
❄️ Most of the field is empty now, but there is the odd bunch of stragglers still trying to bloom!
❄️ Tallest flower standing! 😲 Verbascum refusing to admit it's December
❄️ The geums got the memo though
❄️ Wreath prep for our workshops
❄️ Bare root roses being heeled in before the big rose plant up!
❄️ Pesky slugs are still at it 😠

Thank you all so much for your support this year - whether you're a follower, a customer, a bride or groom, a friend, or a fellow grower - we appreciate you all! Hope you have wonderful Christmas ✨

Shameless share of some of our favourite flower photos of 2024. Scroll to the end if you want a laugh! 😆

Showcasing some colour palettes from our 2024 weddings. We love the variety! 😍 Which would you choose?

18/12/2024

Sharing our highs and lows of 2024.
The highs:
1. Seeing our first flowers popping up, and creating our first gift bouquet marks the start of the season for us, and is always a time of joy! 🌱🌸🤗
2. We really loved running our kindness initiative this year, 'Superstar Jars' 💫
3. Growing Lavatera for the first time (and not the last!😍 )
4. Flowering some gorgeous weddings is one of the things we're most proud of this year.
5. Our farm tours and workshops were another high point!

The lows...
6. The incessant rain! 😩🌧️ Such a wet year meant harvesting was tricky and makes the job much less fun!
7. Weeding! So much weeding...
8. Shoveling muck about is a necessary but mucky and physically tough part of the job!
9. Beasties munching on our flowers does NOT fill us with joy 🙄
10. We lost a few seedlings at the start of the year, and that's always a sad time!

What are your highs and lows this year? We'd love to hear them!

09/12/2024

Celebrating a year of gorgeous flowers with some favourite gift bouquets. Take me back! ☀️🌱💐

05/12/2024

Are you in the 'all presents sorted by the start of December 'camp? Then this post may not be for you! 😆 But if you're more of a winging it from now until Christmas type, then take a peek... 👀

What better gift to give this Christmas than fresh flowers to look forward to in the coming year!*

*We may be a bit biased 😉🌷😍

Gosh how we miss the floral abundance. Here are some lovely flowery pictures to brighten us all up in soggy, grey December! 🌸💕

What we love to grow: scented foliage.

We've included some of our favourites here, but we're always on the look out for new varieties that work well with cut flowers, so please tell us - are we missing any? 🌿 The Dahlia Wood | Slow grown, seasonal Welsh flowers | Whimsical, romantic and a little bit wild #whatwelovetogrow #scentedfoliage #foliage #welshflowers

Put your hands up if you need a bit of flower therapy this January! 🙋‍♀️ We'd love to know what you enjoy growing.

Let's brighten up our January grids! 😍🌸🌻 | The Dahlia Wood | Whimsical, romantic & a little bit wild |

What would you like us to do next year? 🤔🌸 1. Simple arrangements (vases/table arrangements) 2. Hand-tied bouquet 3. Wreath making (autumn/winter) 4. Other (please let us know what in comments!)

A reminder of the most beautiful day in August 2024. Thank you K & D for trusting me to create something that felt completely magical.

There is still time to book on our Christmas wreath workshop at Cegin Diod book via our website 🎄

Go on, admit it... do you think flower farming is all wafting around cutting flowers in pretty dresses? 💃 Think again! It's bloomin' hard work. Social media rarely tells the whole story, so this reel is dedicated to keeping it real! 👩‍🌾💪🙃

Fancy a sneak peek at our Rose collection? While it's a tough call, I actually do have a firm favourite for once!!! Any guesses which is my absolute No. 1? #roses #davidaustinroses #flowerfarmer #grownnotflown #supportlocal
