Broadview Flowers

01/10/2026

Last big pick from the flower patch today. I'll officially be closing for maternity tomorrow evening and I'll be back at some point late spring/early summer 2027.

So what am I doing with all these flowers? I'll be making up various arrangements and such to use as social media posts whilst I'm away. And once I've done that I'm just going to enjoy having flowers around the house for myself, put my feet up and wait for baby Broadview.

Flower stand is out today and tomorrow as usual @ 10 Lincoln Road, North Hykeham.

Next Saturday 19th Sep will be the last guaranteed day the stand will be out for this year before I take maternity. A post will be made next weekend if any further dates will be added.

For gift bouquets and flower arrangers buckets the last guaranteed date to order is Thursday 17th Sept for collection on the 18th.

I tried something a bit different this Sunday. I had a couple of friends over to test out running a bouquet workshop and PYO from the flower patch to see if they are feasible options for next year.

A lot of work would need to be done between now and then - both physically in the patch (hello tiny paths) and all the fun paperwork that goes along with such things - but watch this space. Next year could be a really exciting change.

I'd love to hear from you, if I offered workshops would you like to come and spend time in the flower patch?

And a big thank you to my friends for listening to me waffle on about flowers on a Sunday. I had a great time!

I don't officially do weddings. DIY buckets yes, but bouquets and buttonholes no.

With Baby Broadview due in the very near future we've been kindly gifted so many baby things from a couple we know, that when the opportunity popped up to do a wedding bouquet in return it was something I was very happy to do.
So thank you to L+S for all the baby paraphernalia. I hope today is a wonderful day for you both.

Flower Stand 14th and 15th August

A few changes for the Flower Stand this weekend @ 10 Lincoln Road, North Hykeham

The stand will still be out on Friday from 9, but due to the temperatures there will be fewer fresh flowers than usual (and these may be taken indoors around midday). There will be flower posies that you can take home to either enjoy in a vase or hang to dry to make an everlasting posy. As well as some dried flower arrangements.

Saturday the Stand will be out from 10am instead of 9am and hopefully jam jars and bouquets will have made a comeback due to lower temps.

What have I been up to so far this week? Mostly hiding from the sun once again. Very much looking forward to the forecasted cooler temps of next week.

There's plenty going on in the patch in August but my mind is already turning to next year. Biennials are already sown and coming along nicely. And now is the time for me to plan what hardy annuals I want to get started to overwinter for next year. A lot of consideration is going into changing quite a bit of my growing space into perennial beds. They seem to cope so much better with weather extremes and I think they will be a beneficial backbone to the cutting patch.
So far my perennial wishlist is as long as my arm so there's a bit of refining to do

This weekend be there or be square !!!!
