✨OCTOBER WEDDING✨

Harking back to previous October wedding florals in preparation for my last two weddings of the season.

Looking forward to creating some more autumn magic and then hanging up my snips for the season 🍂

✨OCTOBER OPENING✨

I still have lots of flowers in the garden, especially dahlias, so I’m opening the garden up to ad hoc pick your own for the next few weeks to make the most of them before they’re gone. Please email me to book a slot as I’m pretty sporadic at checking instagram, although I am going to postpone my digital detox until the end of October ✌️

✨WHAT’S STILL FLOWERING✨

Here’s a guide to what’s still in flower in my cutting garden in West Yorkshire at the end of September.

Unfortunately it’s not as simple as just sowing or planting these plants in order to have flowers until the end of the season as it depends on when you sow them and plant them out (for the annuals) and on the weather, but if you’re looking for late season flowers they are a good place to start ☺️

✨VARIETY✨

One of things I love so much about growing my own flowers for my wedding work is that I can include so many different flowers in my bouquets, so many different colours and shapes and textures and scents. I know that wild and abundant style isn’t for everyone, some people just want one type of flower and that’s cool too, but it’s not my vibe.

I love that my bridal bouquets showcase the very best flowers of the moment, here in my Yorkshire flower garden- the most beautiful blooms of the season on your special day, in the place you’re getting married. A wedding day snapshot in nature time.

The challenge for me now is to recreate all of this glorious diversity from perennials and I am excited for all of the new plants that I’m on the road to discovering as a result.

I’m going to sleep thinking about plants, waking up thinking about plants and Dan is a bit worried that whenever I’m looking at him I’m thinking about plants 😂🙈

This is my season of real garden discovery, deep diving into growing the flowers and transforming my already beautiful space, and I just know that my wedding flowers are going to sparkle as a result of this work ✨

Thanks so much Pip for the gorgeous photo of your July bouquet by Charlotte Eve Photography - I love this shot ❤️

✨AUTUMN JOBS✨

I love this time of year, and I love these sunny September days in the garden. These photos don’t look like much, but they represent a lot of happy hard work digging and dividing and replanting perennials over the past few weeks (with a lot of help 🙏) to create a more cohesive and healthy mixed flower garden.

I’m really excited to see how it all looks next season, and to give my hard working perennials the care and attention they deserve.

It has been such a treasure hunt, going through each bed discovering self seeded plants that needed relocating. Despite the creeping tiredness from a long summer, this bit of growing flowers gives me the last spurt of energy I need to make it to the end of the season.

As I promised myself, I’ve not bought any annual seeds, but I have been sowing saved hardy annual seeds directly on empty beds and the germination has been excellent.

Germination in the greenhouse seems to have slowed down significantly so I think that’s it for sowing new perennials until the spring. Next for sowing are the ranunculus corms that arrive next week… I can’t wait to have them back in the garden next spring.

I hope all you growers are enjoying your September garden jobs as much as I am ☺️

✨INSPIRATION✨

I was looking back through wedding flower pics to make my jazzy new price guide and found this gem of a bouquet for Alys | Brand First UGC last summer. What a stunner. Thanks Alys for the sweet brief and the gorgeous picture. What a treat to look back on 😍

✨FUNERAL FLOWERS✨

Some of the last funeral flowers that I’ll do, but I’m so happy to have contributed my lovingly grown flowers to the celebration of a woman who sounded truly remarkable. Thank you for asking me and trusting me and I so hope all of the eight bouquets that this arrangements was made out of brought joy to their recipients.

Funeral flowers work feels so important and is often so rewarding, but it can also be hard, and takes a lot of energetic holding and sensitivity. No one talks about the heightened emotions around funerals and the added stress this creates around responsiveness. It’s the only work I’ve ever lost through not sending out an invoice quick enough.

And it is tiring trying to break the mould, doing things in a way that (some) funeral directors are not used to or particularly welcoming of. This is work I currently don’t have the capacity for.

I feel sad saying this, and really grateful to everyone who has trusted me with funeral flowers to date, but I won’t be taking on any more of this work.
