I have always taken inspiration from the countryside surrounding Plott Cottage,natural grasses,colours and wild loveliness finds its way into every bouquet.
The organic beauty of the fields and hedgerows add texture and softness to my arrangements.

keep a look out for new posts

My Garden is always a haven for wildlife,created with a romantic,natural feel it is my sanctuary,and allows me to play with colour and texture.
Filled with all the cottage garden favourites,it has an abundance of roses,delphiniums,and foxgloves.

My New Plott

I would like to introduce my newly aquired piece of land,I feel very blessed to now call this my new cutting area for 2023,its just outside my cottage door and once sorted will be a wonderful haven for wildlife and of course some glorious flowers

more updates coming soon

Paths and Springtime

In order to keep everthing tidy and as weed free as possible,Ive invested in a load of wood chip,making neat pathways

The forground shows my bed of daffodls just starting to make an appearance,the next bed contains Autumn sown Achillea,Cornflower and lots of other Hardy Annuals and Perennials ,including Ranunculas ,one of my most favourite flowers,the persian buttercup!n

The next post should be colourful

Flowers to come

Autumn is a really busy time on a flower farm,you must plan carefully your next years planting,

To get ahead of the game its very often a good idea to jump start some Hardy annuals,so they can make good root systems over the colder months.

Some of my favourites are Cornflower,Scabiosa, Ammi majus and Daucus

June is shining!

Well the flower field is in full bloom

August

Bees,bees and more bees,,,

August has bought so much insect life.especially the Bees who love to snack on the Dahlia nectar and then have a little snooze.

I now refer to this as the Bee B & B area.

I’m so pleased with the sight of all these pollinators and it must mean I’m doing something right.
No chemicals or pesticides has definitely paid off.

Buying British grown flowers will help all our pollinators

2024 here we come!

We enter 2024 with a great deal of rain,not perfect for my newly planted beds of perennials!,

I’ve so many plans for this year,not least the fact that since September I have been using my newly acquired electric bike for most of my commuting.

My intention is to use it to deliver my bouquets,wherever possible.

Thus helping me to become even more sustainable.

Using e bikes for business is the way forward
