Foraged Flora

Foraged Flora Foraged Flora is a small cutting garden in the South Wairarapa, north east of the small township of Featherston.

The philosophy of the business is to provide affordable, sustainably grown , seasonal flowers to the local community. All flowers and foliage grown on our property are organically grown and we work with other flower farmers to bring you flowers throughout the year. Our posies and bunches are available for sale at Adamsons Service Station in Featherston, Pinehaven in Greytown and Mobil in Carterton.

Enjoying the garden today as we have brief respite from the relentless winds, 💨 it never ceases to amaze me just how resilient flowers are, it’s a wonder there’s anything still standing!

Good afternoon. I’ve just restocked Pinehaven & Challenge with fresh flowers today (they had both sold out) in case you need a birthday bunch for one of those countless October birthdays! 🎂😆

Just stocked up Adamsons with fresh flowers this afternoon as they sold out this morning. 😊

The first of the Waratahs are blooming 👏 these have to be one of my favourite Australian flowers; a bonus being they don’t get shredded by the wind which is very important if you dare to flower at this time of year in Featherston! 😆

Some bright coloured bunches going out this morning on this grey day, winters not quite done with us just yet!
A big shout out to one of our suppliers, Van Lier Nurseries who despite a devastating fire last weekend still managed to supply flowers 💐 this week - legends! 😊

So last year I had an aphid infestation on my anemones. This spring I decided to enlist the help of these guys and so far so good 👍🏼 They’re a parasitic wasp which lay their eggs inside the aphid and the larvae 🐛 hatch and eat the internal contents of the aphid killing it. All sounds a bit gruesome but so far it’s working like a treat. 😊

It’s been great being able to source beautiful fresh flowers during winter from the warmer parts of the Motu but always exciting when our own local Wairarapa growers flowers start to bloom again 😊 First off the rack are beautiful anemones from The Acreage (Carterton), my own ones are not too far away either - the light is slowly creeping back in the mornings too 👏

July always feels like we’re in the depths of winter ❄️ to me! There’s so little flowering at this time it makes the ones that do all the more beautiful. 😊 Thanks Carl & Simone for these stunning cymbidium orchids. I think the green might be my favourite but the pinks are lovely too. They’ll only be around for another 6 or 7 weeks so enjoy them while you can. 😊

Another winter job - the new garden area is fenced off from the hungry animals (whose favourite food is foraged flora) and will be ready for spring planting! 🤞🏻
Mmm 🤔 that’s quite a lot of soil! 😆
