Looking forward to #growingforchelsea

Now that we have moved house and Christmas and New Year are over, I can start work on growing some lovely flowers again :)

My best nine photos from Instagram are a good mix. It was a great first year and I'm looking forward to what 2018 will bring. #2017bestnine

Another reminder to think about where your flowers have come from and what damage they have done on their way to your vase!

Just home from a wonderful weekend in Edinburgh for the Flowers From The Farm Autumn conference. It was truly inspiring and lovely to meet so many members. Looking forward to next season, lots to do now though :) #flowerfarmersparty

An interesting article on the #slowflower movement in Australia. As a flower grower I would encourage everyone to think about where their flowers have come from. Shipped around the world, grown in a cocktail of chemicals by people paid very little for their work. Or you could choose local grown, seasonal, scented blooms grown with love and care.
