Enjoying slowing down as much as possible in this silly season as I wonder around our little woodland in search of inspiration for my sold out Christmas Workshops 2024.

Hawthorn hips, mini crabapples and unripe plums will feature in this years Table Arrangements.

I’m often asked if I teach Christmas Wreath Workshops.
I don’t. In the blazing heat of summer (well maybe not this rainy week!) wreaths made on a base of vines just won’t hold out for very long and I don’t use oasis bases. I prefer to teach these over winter with dried flowers and hardy foliages that will last well in the cooler temperatures. The Christmas Table Arrangement that I teach is like a wreath but for a table rather than to hang up on a door. All the floral mechanics can be
re used year after year and I’ve had attendees tell me theirs are still going strong into February (if you keep the water topped up). Sustainable floristry at its best.

The first of my Floret DC Peachy zinnias. I have a feeling these are going to get even better as the plant matures over the season. But I’m still swooning over this first pick! 🫶

There’s a constantly changing cast of main character energy in the spring gardens. The narcissi, tulips and bluebells have made way for ranunculus, anemones and echium with peonies waiting patiently in the wings 🩷

🌷Tulips🌷
Like many of the crops that I grow tulips can be fleeting! As soon as the sun starts to warm up the tulips wake up. There are early, mid and late season varieties which can buy you a bit of time - maybe a couple of weeks. Otherwise it’s a race to get them picked and processed before they are fully open.

Tulips have a great vase life if picked early. You can enjoy their transformation from tiny closed bud to fully open petals as they continue to grow after being picked.

If your tulips get a little wild in the vase just wrap them tightly in newspaper and put them in a fresh vase of water over night. They’ll soon straighten up again.

Enjoy and embrace the entertaining personality of the tulip while you can! 😀

A beautiful morning to kick off the dried flower wreath workshops 2024! Such a fun, creative group enjoying a spot of Flower Therapy. The hardest part was choosing which flowers to use from the Flower Bar. I was especially pleased to see how well the dried zinnias worked. I’ve been experimenting with these for a while now.

Thanks ladies! I loved spending time with you today! 🥰

Next dried flower workshop Saturday 18th May. More details in bio link. Email [email protected] to book your place 🌸

Happy Friday! 🥰💐

Spent a really chilled morning with this enthusiastic bunch of gardeners learning more about how to grow cut flowers.

We started off sprouting some anemones then moved onto the finer points of seed sowing with some tried and tested sowing tips and tricks thrown in. Then we moved onto how to get free plants through cuttings and splitting because who doesn’t love free plants! Finally we discussed some possible dedicated cut flower garden plans and all the good stuff that goes along with that. Oh and a meander to some of the deepest darkest parts of the gardens to collect some seeds.

Car boots were full by the end as I added in some hardy annual seedlings and special perennials to get their cut flower spaces going.

I’d love to do this workshop again in spring and focus on heat loving flowers and how to stretch your season so you still have flowers to cut in Autumn. Watch this space or join my newsletter to be the first to know dates (link in bio)

Lovely morning spent getting our spiral on creating garden inspired hand tied spiral bouquets. Lots of colourful dahlias and zinnias, delicious smelling herbs and a few unusual ingredients to keep things interesting. Lovely seeing you all get creative and making something beautiful aswell as learning a new skill 🩷💐

My favourite way to get into the festive feels! 🎄🎄🎄

Two Christmas Table Arrangement workshops were the highlight of my weekend. Fabulous groups of ladies creating beautiful festive arrangements. Heaps of textural foliages and some very festive berries and other Christmassy decorations.

I already have a list for next year’s workshop. They tend to fill up fast so if you’d like to make something beautiful for your festive table in 2024 get in touch and I’ll add you to the list or subscribe to my newsletter to be the first to hear about upcoming workshops in 2024 (see website for subscription form)
