Anyone looking for a big veggie box to start the year with?
A couple of families who normally get veggies off me are away for the week and the garden is pumping.
All veggies are grown to organic standards.
Can also include fruit, berries and eggs.
photo is of a box from last week.

Merry Christmas to you all. Thanks for all the support as I have undertaken another new start.
And as some one whose birthday falls between Christmas and New Year I am well aware that events that need celebrating like births and deaths happen all year round, so today I am spending with friends, but tomorrow I will be around flowers so reach out if you need any.

Final pre Christmas delivery to Dandelion and Clover.
So do pop in if you are looking for a special arrangement for your table or a beautiful bunch for a friend.
And as always no single use plastics involved and flowers grown to organic standards. However I did forage a beautiful amount of pohutukawa while on the peninsula helping set up a wedding and I just had to sprinkle it through todays offering.

Nice to be mentioned.

This beautiful table arrangement will be dropped of at Dandelion and Clover this morning.
All my table arrangements are made using earth wool instead of standard floral oasis. For two good reasons. Firstly oasis is banned in many countries for it is a known carcinogen and who wants something so toxic on their table? And secondly it is a huge source of microplastics as it breaks down.
The blocks do cost more and take more skill to use but totally align with my belief that if we want to see change we have to support products that bring change.
I hope it brings joy to the lucky person whose table it graces.

If you know me, you will know Christmas is not my favourite time of year. But creating beautiful table decorations is helping this Grinch find a new level of joy in the season.
This beauty will be delivered to Dandelion and Clover early tomorrow. Currently sitting in my chiller.
please note there is no Oasis used in this arrangement. It has been banned in many countries for it is a known carcinogen. And why would you want toxic sh..t gracing your table. Instead it is created in an earth wool product which is biodegradable. it does take a wee bit more time and skill to use but it’s worth it to stop microplastics and illness!

Finished! It’s quite large 50cm across.If you would like it to grace your front door yell out.

Just to let you know I have topped up my stand at Dandelion and Clover Cafe. Located just west of West Melton.
Have a lovely friend who turned up last night with a bucket of hypericum foilage and berries, so it’s starting to feel a lot like Christmas! And it was grown with the same love as the flowers I arranged with it.
If you are closer to home feel free to reach out and I can create something special just for you.

Not only do the look beautiful they smell beautiful too, with the use of herbs like lavender and lemon verbena.
All wrappings are totally compostable other than one pink ribbon around the strawflowers but that bunch will dry perfectly so I am sure the ribbon will get well used.
All flowers have been grown by me to organic standards, so no nasty chemical residues!

Every year for the last 10 year at around the end of October I have stood in my garden and arrogantly thought this year it will be different. This year I have the knowledge to have the perfect season. Over the years crops I have mastered one year have failed the next. So over the years by the 1st of December I have been humble.
This year is no different. This year the humbling moment was when I was hit by hail and it basically wiped out the preceding 4 months of hard work and meant the pick your own flower farm I planned to have open this week is not quite ready!
But some of my crops were still under cover and that saved them.
So I do have loads of beautiful, statice, snapdragons, cornflowers, sweet peas, straw flowers gypsophila and dahlias ready for you all to enjoy.
So if you would like to come pick a bucket of flowers please PM me and I can arrange a time for you. Or if you would like flowers in your house grown to organic standards , or maybe you are thinking of a friend reach out.

It often amazes me what I find in my garden. Often from seeds I have scored in a walk around another’s garden. As is the case with these amazing Echium . I was on a garden tour on the peninsula and was amazed by the bee activity on their Echium, so I sneakily took some dried seed. Came home threw it at my back door where all seed I don’t know what to do with goes! And three years later! Have to be close the 3.5 m tall.
Second photo is off a flower I don’t know the name of(that’s pretty normal) must of been stealing bulbs of my Mum again!
