Exhausted but so so proud, this week has been mammoth for me.
When people ask what I do I always say im a flower farmer/ grower im not an events florist I trained in floristry basics and mainly self taught its why I decided to grow flowers for florists in the first place, to give everyone the chance to use scented unique amazing flowers.
Over the last 8 years ive done alot of weddings and events only small, just bouquets, table decorations and lots of diy buckets, im safe with that although I do love a milk churn display.
Its not that I don't want to its just being a grower means picking for florist orders for their weddings that week picking for all other orders then picking for my bride, making up that wedding set up take down and the bigger the wedding the more time this takes, time I don't have much of, thats not to mention the growing side of the flowers, the weeding grass cutting (that needs doing desperately) watering the list is endless but this week i had the best time making a giant pink broken arch and wedding flowers , thank you for letting me use your arch so sad you were ill and couldn't help but came to my rescue, I love my flowery friends who have helped me along the way, shared tips and tricks and made me feel calm when I could cry.
Also this week a big order for hayley , posies and cut stems,
Bouquet orders and baby shower flowers for
Now to get next week sorted 👌

I did finally get the dahlias in the ground and pot on a load of babies ive also ordered my biennials and any perennials I want to try from seed, there's always space for somthing new.

Here's to a cooler productive week ahead

What a week busiest this year and as much as I like to stay tucked away in my field the flowers have partied hard this week

Firstly my edible flowers along with made their way to to be used by to promote her new book.
Ive never been to Chelsea and always said when I get an invite for press day I will go so maybe just maybe one year that will happen but a part of me was there this year in flowers.

Then popped in to pick up flowers London bound to with and other British growers .lane



Mid week was wedding prep and the temperatures started rising which meant 5am picking, best time of the day, so many beautiful flowers picked, sunsets tones for

How are we nearly in May, anyone else feel like the seasons flying by.
I haven't been doing weekly posts on whats flowering which is so helpful for me my brides and florists to look back on for following years and so much going on I thought id better start this Sunday.

This week has been a week for planting out everything I possibly can, making way for more seedlings and trying to get a full season of flowers.
Mostly the tulips and daffs are over but the ranunculus is looking amazing and really fills the gap of colour needed, these are grown under low tunnels are much stronger than my main tunnel grown and should keep flowering for a good month.

Very exciting news I had a book arrive in the post has written this beautiful book filled with seasonal local blooms, expert tips and great advise if you're looking for a new book i highly recommend, I love seeing if I can spot my flowers in it and knowing people across the world will be looking at mine and other local growers flowers.

Also after months of sitting in the polytunnel after being turfed out of home all my wedding glass and jugs have been washed and put away into their forever home, the workshop has such a beautiful feeling about it and getting to put things ive collected over the years into a forever home is a dream come true, still so much to do but slowly slowly the dream is becoming a reality

Have a great Sunday

Easter pick your own is becoming a new tradition for so many and ive loved meeting new and old faces. I started pyo tulips in 2022 when i just mixed a mass of tulips in beds and you just turned up with a bucket, it had its teething problems and since then its definitely advanced especially now the workshop is in and I have electricity meaning yummy tea and cake can be included, places to sit and relax and making it more of an experience where you get to pick at leisure with the field to yourself.
Next year I plan on more tulips more picking and more fun i can't wait to get the bulb catalogues through.
The tulips have been amazing and paced themselves over 4 weeks this weekend being another sell out and who knows maybe even next weekend, I will be sad to see them go !

Just a big thank you to for bringing her beautiful family and capturing some beautiful images, I hide from cameras always but even im happy to share a couple of my ugly mug 😆, if you are looking for family photos in the flowers, bluebells or beautiful countryside she is your lady.
