Autumn. We’re cutting back, tidying up and mulching. I’m looking forward to the chrysanthemums blooming but that will be our last flower crop here. Its time to retire and move on to something new and hand this patch onto someone else 🍂🍂

I will be selling off lots of floristry and flower farming kit so if you’re interested least send me a DM for a list. UK only and collection preferable.

Sitting in the evening light a little bowl of flowers left over from a bouquet made l during last weekends visit to flower fields in Cheshire. What a treat to be invited by a pal to spend a Sunday morning wandering through Carol’s fields, drooling over dahlias and revelling in her field full of fabulous foliages. The flowers here are a little worse for wear as I completely forgot to take a flower bucket and on the way home they tipped over 😳 A long drink when they got home revived most and this little bowl has bought me joy all week. 😊

Sunny sunflowers. I grow them because the bees and I like them, I never sell many but I will always find space for them.

I’ve not posted anything in a long while. We’ve had a pause and have made some big decisions. This will be our last year of growing flowers for sale as we’re planning to retire. The house and land is on the market and we’re looking forward to new adventures. So if you fancy a big old house with an established cutting garden in East Sussex then take a look at our listing with

Getting back into the swing of things after a long time away, with an urn for the Laughton Village Fete and Flower Festival today. A community event not a posh curated affair (nothing wrong with those either), with flowers arranged by children from the village school and local residents. Just joyous 🌸 celebration of flowers.

From the tunnel today. I’m away in Australia at the moment and I’m so grateful that my dear husband and are tending the plot. It’s a busy time of year with lots being hardened off and going into the ground, the care that’s needed especially as it appears to be unseasonably warm. It’s the same temperature here in Queensland in Autumn as it is back home 🤷‍♀️I’m looking forward to lots of flowers on my return.

All of a sudden, just as I’m about to go away, we’re surrounded by flowers 😊 I’m looking forward to going to the other side of the world and getting away from the worst hayfever season I’ve ever had. I thought it was just me but on this morning there was an article about there being exceptionally high levels tree pollen this year (particularly silver birch), which is causing suffering to those like me who are allergic to it. Something we’re going to have to get used to as yet another effect of climate change apparently😳

So nice to see some sunshine on the weekend. Some cheery narcissus bringing a bit of spring freshness to the kitchen table.

Sunshine, blue skies, some new pots and the first tiny flowers. I’m finally coming out of hibernation.
