My lovely girls would like to thank and congratulate the who have just rehomed their one millionth hen! A-maz-ing.
And she has gone to a very special home. Check out their posts to see just where.
We've had our latest rescue hens for nearly a year now and they all lay almost every day! It's a happy retirement for them.

Flowers for drying
Would you like to dry your own flowers? I now have bunches available at £15.
All you need to do is hang them upside down somewhere dry and out of direct sunshine.
They will dry slowly and then you can use them as you wish. Make your own arrangement or just leave them as a decorative bunch.
They will contain a mixture of flowers, grasses and seeds heads, though may vary from the ones shown.

Maybe my favourite, maybe not.
It's good to have the Dahlias back to star in bouquets or pop into buckets of flowers.
If you are doing your own party or event flowers, think of using
Buckets of flowers and foliage to arrange yourself. Find more details on my website 🌼

A little experiment in growing dahlias from seed. These little plants are already forming tubers! I was very surprised when planting them out.
I'm hoping the bees will enjoy these.
If they survive the weather and slugs, and you get some good ones, you can lift and save the tubers for next year.

The busiest time of year in the garden. Everything is growing fast (especially grass and weeds) and I have dozens of jobs to do.
It seems that every quick job has another longer job which needs to be done first... Hands up if it's the same with you.
Bouquet with Anemone, Corn Cockle, Sweet Rocket, Daisy, White Gypsophila, Phacelia, Orlaya, Stock

I went to visit a friend yesterday with flowers and sympathy and came home with these beautiful tulips which she gave me!
That is the kind and generous friend she is which makes it all the more galling to know that she has had her Instagram account taken by scammers.
They are only after money, to her it's a support network of lovely flowery friends who have been there for her over a difficult time.
Sara would like to thank everyone who has sent messages of support and tried to help over the weekend. It means a lot.
And finally Do Not click on any links from her account. Be safe.

There is a lot of this going on just now. I'm not exaggerating when I say there are seedlings everywhere 🌱 Pricking out, potting on and even planting out.
This is a dahlia with beautiful roots. I've saved some seeds from last year's flowers so I'm excited to see what I get. (Not having enough to do already).
I'm keeping these cosy inside for now.

Funeral flowers from a few weeks ago. This was the first this year using all my own flowers and foliage.
I almost always use British grown flowers but I sometimes need to buy from larger growers.
As always though, this is plastic free and completely compostable.
Ranunculus, honesty, narcissus and a bit of froth.

Our story

Since 2018 I have had the chance to grow beautiful flowers and share them with people. Starting with some seeds and a patch of mud, I now have a beautiful cutting garden with something new happening every day. It buzzes with life, most of it friendly, as the insects enjoy my flowers as much as I do.

Contact me to order flowers or visit my website for more information.
