A little bit of fun a few weeks back 🙌

The weather this week has been incredible for getting outside in the garden 🙌

I'm in the thick of planting Dutch iris and daffodils and preparing the new peony garden.

I had to stop and take a quick pic of my frost survivors from last Sunday. Sadly the flower field copped it being in a more exposed location, but the garden is hanging on 😍

A selection of 1st year Dahlia seedlings I'll be growing again next year 😍

The first two pics are of the same new seedling that I'm really loving (in a bucket with coorabell moonglow in front)

Which one catches your eye?

Introducing "Life on Mars" 🙌

The perfect chameleon this red hot wonder works in any situation 🎉

A deep warm toned red with cool purple backed petals and dark stems this space oddity finds itself cool and comfy in both warm and cool toned arrangements.

I am delighted to share that "Life on Mars" is debuting in the public spotlight today as part of 's award winning floral installation at the Melbourne International Flower and Garden Show. A huge congrats to Liv who comes up with absolutely brilliant designs year after year both at the flower show and in her wedding work! If you are heading to the show make sure you do drop by and see it ❤

A few seedlings ranging from 1st to 3rd year.

Many of my 1st year seedlings may not bloom this season (,thanks drought!) and I'm wondering if I should dig them and grow next year or just start over from scratch?

What would you do?

What a weekend 🙌

Seedling bunches, a new peony garden underway, and the lone Kim's Valentine growing better than I've ever seen 😍

I have a feeling that I'm really into fluffy dahlias 🙌

New seedlings that popped this morning ❤️

13/03/2025

In my first year as a flower farmer I hated picking zinnias and even considered not growing them ever again.

Why? They have furry stems and when I harvest I tuck them under my arm- the resulting itch is 🤯

Now we have called a truce and I take longer to pick them or wear long sleeves and it's fair to say that I now love them ❤️

At first I wasn't super into the new floret zinnias but now I'm not sure I could live without them! Precious metals are definitely my fave 🙌 (but I'll never survive without my queen red lime 😍)

Some new faces this year that I'll keep growing next year if all goes to plan 🙌

I have hit a bit of a hurdle here this season though - I've run out of water. Our dam is down to a puddle and while I purchased water a few weeks ago- I've already used it all up 😱

Being so close to the end of cut flowers season here I have decided that it makes more sense to focus on healthy Dahlia tubers rather than blooms so from today my dahlias will only be watered once a week to keep them ticking along. I do expect to have less tubers this year as a result. 👎

Obviously I will still have flowers, I will just have a lot less so unless we see a prolonged gentle rain event I am closing to retail orders for the remainder of this flower season . Wholesale orders will continue from my more limited offerings 😊

Please do a rain dance for me and fingers crossed the flowers prevail! 🙏

Introducing Petal Power! 🎉🍾🎉

She's fluffy, she's divine, she has long tall stems and delicious colour variations from white with a hint of blush, to full blown blush.

Petal Power has laciniated petal tips and petaloids and is a real show stopper in bouquets and the garden.

I am hoping to share tubers of this beauty with you all in late winter 🌸

I'm starting to see a bit more action in the 1st year seedlings 🫶

I'm particularly excited by anything white. I know that many people don't favour whites and opt for pinks and blush but I've found that white is the backbone of my Dahlia field and I am yet to find a named variety that ticks all my boxes.

The others are all a bit fun too though I spose 🤣
