Icelandic poppies are one of those flowers that are best seen in person to appreciate their beauty.

🫶Their petals (particularly the colibri variety) look like crushed silk 👌
🫶 They have flowered for me (at least the last couple of years) in the dead of winter when not much else is happening.
🫶 Watching them transform in the vase from bud to bloom is part of the magic.

I found the first few buds emerging on the farm today so it shouldn’t be too long before we are getting some decent stems 😍

Phew! It’s been a busy few weeks here on the farm getting ready for Spring 🤩

✅ Our tunnel is now up and running 😁

✅ 5000+ plants in the ground

Up next is planting all the bulbs - tulips, freesias, alliums, daffs + more 💃

With the onset of some very fresh mornings I have made the call to close the farm shop for the season. Thank you to each and every person who has purchased flowers from us this season - you guys rock 🤘

I will continue to stock the cheltenham general store year round and may open the farm shop from time to time if we have something special flowering.

We are planning one hell of a spring and have lots of things on the cards for next season! Bring it on 😎

Super excited to announce that from tomorrow we’ll be stocking the flower stand at the Cheltenham General Store! We’ve taken it on from the amazing Gemma at Ataahua Blooms who, after an incredible floral career, is hanging up the trowel and moving onto greener pastures. The store is open 7 days per week 💐

Sorry team, our flowers have taken an absolute beating this last week during the recent storm so we’re taking a break this weekend ✌️

We’ve gotten off pretty lightly all things considered and our thoughts are with those who are impacted 💓

Now you can buy yourself a little floral treat and grab a photo for the ‘gram while you’re here 😁✌️

I LOVE to save seeds on the farm - there’s something very satisfying about it to me. It somehow just feels like the ‘right’ to do. Now is a good time to think about whether you’ll save seeds from your garden or farm too. It’s much easier than you think - the biggest hurdle is just giving it a go 🙂

What seeds to do you like to save?

Answers to the quiz:

1. Rainbow Quinoa! (Cover photo)
2. Good ole larkspur
3. Lavatera (how cute are the little hats they have??)
4. Bupleurum
5. Coriander
6. This one was a bit tough but it’s the Lacy Phacelia I use for cover cropping.
