Flower Power

Natural Magic…

Flowers are just truly incredible. I mean seriously a piece of natural magic.

The speed at which a flower develops never seizes to amaze me. Whether it’s grown for its beauty or a fruit that blossoms before turning into an edible delight. They transform themselves tremendously fast.

Not to mention the emotions they can trigger as a gift, the moments they can represent and the sweet scents they produce.

My Mission …

I have made it my mission to grow lots of flowers for cutting this year, I have had minimal experience in floristry, but flower arranging is beyond therapeutic for me.

I have some dahlias sprouting in the greenhouse and it fills me with joy to know I can share them as gifts with my loved ones.

By designating a raised bed to flowers in my allotment, I don’t feel sad about cutting them from my own flower garden (well I’ll still give up some of my roses).

I purchased all my dahlias and seeds for cut flowers from Wyevale Garden Centre and they have got such an incredible selection – not to mention 70% off all bulbs and tubers !
