It really is proving to be our strangest year if growing yet….

Dahlia, at a cuttable height, grown outdoors, sustainably, in Yorkshire….

If truth be told, they caught us by surprise because these are not the overwintered tubers!

I best get on and w**d the beds😂😇

Whatever will happen next 🤷🏽‍♀️🧐

Florists, I’ve added the first stems of Scented Geranium to our webshop for this week’s orders.

Businesses are a funny thing.

If my daughter had her way, our Flower Farm would be called Silver Green Foliage, rather than Silver Grey Foliage.

She holds the position that we do grow alot of Foliage. But there’s more Green Foliage than Grey.

She’s probably right. But we are where we are 🤷🏽‍♀️😇

I literally can’t wait to start cutting this for next week’s orders!

Omphalodes has a silver-grey stem and so so cute little white flowers.

And movement!!!!

Heaven on a stem (🤣) and in our webshop now!

A true mixed bucket for a new customer yesterday.

I live mixed buckets because them offer our customers variety and value.

This one included:

Peonies
Nigella
Salvia
Mint
Sweet Williams
and Penny Cress.

Did you know that when you choose a bucket, you can also request a colour palette?!

Friday share number 1! 🙃

The only pictures of today’s bouquet for Beth.

Butterfly Ranunculus, French Ranunculus, Apple mint and Poppies.

By today, those French Ranunculus will have opened their soft pillowy petals to the hilt as the cushion below the light and airy pale pink Butterlies floating on top.

A smattering of poppies to finish. I should have made more time for images 🙄

I prefer to cut our French Ranunculus at this stage. Before their buttercup shape shows itself. It gives us and our customers control over when they reach the perfect stage and how long the flowers last.

This was the ultimate mico wedding. 1 bridal bouquet. 2 buckets of flowers.

If you’re wanting to DIY your wedding flowers, remember that as with everything that you do on your day, you get to choose how much, or how little you have.

It’s your celebration.

I’ve been dodging showers and hail and downpours all day.

The flowers and our soil are loving it!

I’m grateful for waterproof waterproofs 🙈

Mmmmm Mint!

Have you ever smelt a garden Rose, then a stem of mint?

It’s an intoxicating perfume combination assuming that both as grown without chemicals or manipulation.

There’ll be plenty of mint cut this week on our Flower Farm.

Did you know that our Flowers and Foliage are available for postage, collection and delivery too?

Monday is not a day for Minty Mojitos sadly🙈

It’s been an incredible weekend over which I am SO grateful for the help that we asked for and received.

The long small leaved Pittosporum bed, Alchemilla Mollis, and Sedum beds are w**ded fed and mulched with well rotted manure.

Chocolate Cosmos, Poppies, Daucus Dara and sweet william beds are w**ded, watered and fed.

4 out of 7 beds of Perennial Chrysanthemum are planted, watered and fed.

AND

2 beds of Zinnia, 1.5 beds of Sunflowers and 3 beds of mixed annuals including Ammi, Asters, cresses, Didiscus, Omphalodes and the final Sweet Peas are in the ground.

We didn’t work all day. We had proper lunch breaks and coffee breaks. We talked and my heart soul and cup feel topped up. And I stuck to the plans and priorities.

With incredible and heartfelt thanks to Stephen, Nerys, Antony and the eldest Silver Grey youth, I am finally lifting a glass of wine.

Young Madam Silver Grey likes to take pictures that are on the darker side.

She also seems to completely reject my need for portrait images for Instagram.

That said, it was a fun set of minutes arguing our way towards 1 complete bouquet shot and many gorgeous more focused images.

I believe it’s called respectful challenge 🙈

I hope that your Fridays after the long week goes well.
