A frost-free March means our Foxglove tree (Paulownia tomentosa) is in full bloom in our Pavilion Cottage garden, attracting the birds and the bees.

Just potting up summer flowering plants in my potting shed and thought "hang on a mo' that sounds like swallows". With all the birdsong in the walled gardens and the woodpeckers hammering in the woodland at Galloway House Gardens, I had to double check. They're really back! Love their chatter and dive-bombing the pool at Pavilion Cottage. Maybe you've heard them too. I haven't heard cuckoos here yet though.

We are having a pop-up tent opposite Galloway House Gardens car park over the next few weeks.

As this is a weather permitting event I will be popping up this afternoon- Wednesday 17 April between 3.00 and 5.00 ish.

Come and say hello.

I will have gorgeous painterly, speciality tulips and blousy daffodils, as you can see from the photo of the flowers picked fresh this morning here in Garlieston.

Flowers from the Van gift vouchers are also available.

Other pop-up dates:
Saturday 20 April between 11.00am and 13.00pm
Sunday 21 April between 11.00am and 13.00pm.

All the flowers currently for sale at our pop-up or sold in Nest Wigtown are locally and organically grown in Garlieston.

If you would like to order a table arrangement for a special occasion or perhaps you would like to discuss the different Flowers from the Van subscription offers or order your spring flowers, please message [email protected].

There's no better way to close the working week than by welcoming a new Biosphere Proud Supporter. Today it's Flowers from the Van, located at Garlieston and on the same site as Escape To Galloway holiday cottage. The flower farm sells to local and British florists, local businesses and individuals, also offering seasonal plants and produce sales via their farm gate stall. A nature-friendly farming approach encourages birds and bees, with a portion of flower seed allocated just for the birds to enjoy. Plants and flowers are packaged in biodegradable packaging, boxes and plant pots are reusable/reused, sustainably sourced, or made from recycled biodegradable waste. Rainwater is collected water for use in the garden beds and all spent material from the flower farming business, as well as plant waste and eggshells from holiday cottage guests, is turned into nutritious compost. Fantastic work to support people and nature in this UNESCO Biosphere!

Find out how you or your business or social enterprise can become a Proud Supporter (it's easy, it's free, and it's the first step to achieving the Biosphere Certification Mark) via the link below.
