After 3 weeks she found her way home last night. She's lost a lot of weight, is very hungry and really clingy but she's home and safe, just where she belongs ❤️🥹

Thank you to everyone who looked for her and asked after her xx

Missing cat - please keep an eye out

Our young cat has been missing since Wednesday evening (around 9pm), she was last seen close to the Bridestones near Congleton.

She is a tortoiseshell (black, white and brown) with a distinctive black mark on her nose. She is chipped and spayed.

We live rurally so she may have wandered and could be hiding in a barn, shed , garage or vehicles nearby to us. If you live locally to The Cloud, Timbersbrook, Biddulph Park area we’d really appreciate you having a quick check.

Please message if you see her or have any information and please could you share this post to help us find her.

Thank you - this is very unlike her so we are worried.

Thank you so much to everyone who supported me this Mothering Sunday - I appreciate it so much! I really hope everyone enjoys the flowers 💐💗

I almost didn't have the guts to go for it as I'd never ordered flowers in from other growers before, but I'm so glad now that I did.

I'm getting excited about the new flowering season now - follow along to find out when the flowers are ready.

Do you want to treat someone special this Mothering Sunday?

I’m offering a small number of hand-tied Mothering Sunday bouquets this year. They’re filled with seasonal blooms including tulips, scented narcissi, and fresh spring foliage, plus some foliage freshly gathered here on the farm. The rest comes from trusted British growers while my own flowers are still getting started for the season.

Classic – £25
Signature (a fuller bouquet) – £35

Pre-orders close Friday at midday so I can place my order and make sure everything is perfect.

Bouquets will be ready to collect from the flower trailer on Saturday 14th March (I’ll send all the collection details once you book).

A few bouquets are still available — if you’d like one, just pop me a message and I’ll reserve it for you.

Thanks so much to everyone who’s already ordered — it really means a lot to a small local grower!

Mother’s Day bouquets are now open for pre-booking.

New for this year — hand-tied, beautifully wrapped using biodegradable materials, and filled with seasonal blooms including tulips, scented narcissi and fresh spring foliage.

Whether you’re treating your mum, a special lady in your life, or even yourself (because why not?), these bouquets are designed to feel thoughtful, generous and full of spring joy.

Classic – £25
Signature (a fuller bouquet) – £35
Or message me if you’d like something a little more bespoke.

Pre-orders close Thursday this week at 12pm to allow me to secure flowers from amazing British growers — my own blooms won’t quite be ready yet.

Bouquets will be ready to collect from the flower trailer on Saturday 14th March (details at time of ordering).

If you know someone who might love something special this Mother’s Day, feel free to share this with them.

Mothering Sunday isn't far away.

I’m thinking of offering a few hand-tied spring bouquets for the first time this year — all British-grown and seasonal. Each bouquet will be beautifully presented and plastic free.

Because the tulips and narcissi aren’t flowering on the farm yet, these will be pre-order only, so I can order in flowers from other British growers and make sure each bouquet is fresh and perfect.

Classic (£25) or Signature (£35) — limited numbers available. Message me MOTHER to register your interest and we'll take it from there.

January feels like the right time to reintroduce myself.

I’m Rachel, I grow seasonal British flowers, and this year I’m sharing the whole journey — from early plans and first shoots, through the summer abundance, and into gorgeois autumnal colour.

If you love local flowers, come and follow along.

And feel free to share this with anyone you think might enjoy it. Here's to 2026!

Well.... it's been a year!

I'm generally a bit rubbish at putting these sort of posts together. I start to look through the hundreds of photos on my phone and get totally sidetracked.... or the kids grab the phone and start looking at photos of the trip to Alton Towers or the beach 🤣

Anyway, here we are, so much has happened and the promise of so much more for 2026 hangs heavily in the air.

January - the school holidays carried on slightly longer than planned thanks to the snow ❄️
February - the promise of Spring flowers
March - the new field was rotovated (which was very exciting at the time but created such a w**d problem which is a whole other story 😳)
April - all of the tulips flowered at once thanks to the heatwave
May - sweet peas.... say no more ❤️
June - the flower trailer was launched!
July - the pollinators were so happy
August - flowers were everywhere
September - the dahlias really got going
October - I just love this pic 🥰
November - drowning in wreath foliage
December - possibly my fave wreath

I wanted to say a massive thank you to everyone who has supported me this year - it means the world to me! Here's to more growth (literally ans metaphorically) in 2026 💚

Wishing you all a wonderful Christmas!
