New home!
I will still be based on Ashampstead Common, but just on the other side! Based on a private property behind their walled garden,I can't wait to turn what was a derelict weedy jungle into a pollinators dream of flowers, grasses and shrubs 💕💐

Sweet dreams my darling girl ❤️
You pecked me in the eyeball, but made up for it with 3.5 years of being the friendliest, lovely henny penny. Night night Daffodil ###
May update from the farm x

March update from the farm!
Apologies about the lack of makeup but when the soil and worms are the only ones to see me, I really can't be bothered!

Pricking out some of my early Jan sowings.
I made a stupid error in not checking my seedlings on the window sill over the last week or so as I have been really unwell so understandably distracted! So whilst my scabiosa were so dry they were close to death, the snaps next door were so wet that the soil had gone anaerobic and the roots started to die. Luckily some still had some short roots clinging on to life, so I have pricked them out and will hope for the best.
Leaving them in the greenhouse now as it's so mild too.

It seemed a good time to remind all of the lovebirds out there that you don't just have to show your special someone that you care on one day of the year, but remind them throughout the year!
Shirk the scentless, chemical-dipped imported roses (which frankly are a bit predictable by now surely?!), for a summer of beautiful flowers changing with the seasons and delivered to your door.
Delivery within 10 miles of RG8 8qy and order via the website ###

I flowered quite a few weddings last year and I hope to flower more in 2024.
Whilst I adore growing and arranging my flowers into something that my wedding couples will love, I also really enjoy getting feedback - weddings are nerve wracking occasions for all involved (granted, mostly for the wedding couple!, but your suppliers are also likely to be on tenterhooks hoping you love their service as much as you hope!).
If you are newly engaged, or perhaps you have been planning for a while, do get in touch if you need help with your flowers for your special day, or even a workshop for the hen party!
Lots of love ###

The first of the made-to-order Christmas Wreaths is going home today. I cannot wait to see it in its final spot!
If you would like a Christmas Wreath to give your door, gate, wall (or anything else!), click the link or visit the website.
I only have a limited number of bases, from my home grown willow, so get in touch soon to ensure you do not miss out. X

A quick Luxury Bouquet made on a Friday evening before settling down to @gardenersworldtv with a cup of tea in my new mug ❤️
