Flowers for Francesca ♥️🌾

Loved creating these bouquets with flowers from my Autumn garden for the beautiful bride Francesca & her maids. I was lucky enough to be one of them, so it was a real team effort and a fun activity the day before the nuptials.✨

Thank you for trusting me Franny, a very special day 🫶🏻💕

The last pick of the season. 👋🏼🌼

Managed to pull together a few of the late Autumn stragglers for a last minute Mother’s Day Bouquet ~ Zinnias, Amaranth, Dahlias, Celosia, Matricaria, Marigolds & Scabiosa. It seems like each year the season stretches a little longer, I think this is the first year my flowers made it this far!

The irony also dawned on me that the last bouquet I made this season was for Mother’s Day, and potentially the next one I make I will be a mother myself 🥹.

Soon I’ll be cutting back my Dahlias, which I’m leaving in the ground this year seeing as Dahlia planting time will be when I am in the trenches with a newborn, and I’m hoping to get a few spring flowers in the ground before it’s too late and I can’t bend over any more 😂. (Note I haven’t sowed one seed or bought one bulb yet lol). It will be so nice to have flowers in my garden when pēpi arrives in Spring, my favourite season.🌷🌾🪻

One flower I’m dying to grow this year which I haven’t yet is Phlox ~ would love to know what others have on their never before to-grow list?

Couldn’t think of a more perfect way to farewell my garden for the season than photographing our besties at 39 weeks hapū ♥️🥹. As the flowers slow down, I’ve let them do their thing & go wild, I didn’t realise it also made for a beautiful photoshoot backdrop! I am not a photographer by any means & was worried whether they would even turn out as we took them after sunset, but they came out better than we could’ve ever imagined! I’m grateful these will be cherished by our friends at such a special time in their life ~ Blooming 🌸.

Spring flowers officially have my heart. 💘

Tulips, Ranunculus, Poppies, Sweet pea & Snapdragon. The purple Tulips & Ranunculus have really surprised me - I didn’t expect to love them as much as I do! 💜

My first wedding bouquet! 🥹🫶🏻

I loved making Ella’s bridal bouquet + button holes back in March. It was a real concoction of what I had in the garden at the time & I’m excited for some more wedding magic next season. 🌺🌸

A ‘Bright and happy’ arrangement for a beautiful bride, thank you for trusting me Ella 💛

A total joy doing the flowers for a very special hens lunch this weekend! Thank you to a few key players for all their help getting the flowers from Raglan ~ Waiheke & setting up. Team work makes the dream work 💜

Some beautiful V-Day bunches that hopefully brought a little bit of sunshine during Cyclone Gabrielle. 🌪️🥀

A busy few days of saving, sheltering and staking flowers from the storm - with a few casualties but we feel very lucky to have gotten off lightly compared to many of our other flower friends and farmers in the North island. 💔

Ngā mihi to all our lovely customers spreading the love and supporting local during a difficult time. We’ll be donating $210 from our earnings to the ❤️

Our thoughts are with all those affected by Cyclone Gabrielle, a truly devastating time for our communities. 😔

Kia kaha NZ. 🤍

Some faves from the garden this week ~ Baxter doing his bit & finally some sunshine for the flowers to say hello 🦋

This space is truly my happy place and I’ve loved being able to share it with our guests too 🤎

Now we brace ourselves for what feels like cyclone no 10 for the summer next week 🫣. Thoughts & prayers are with my fellow flower growers, we really are at the hands of Mother Nature! 🦋🙏🏼🦋

Had these lovely girls stay last week, they loved exploring the garden & chicken coop and cuddling Baxter on the driveway. On their last morning they asked if I needed help in the garden, so they helped me pick some flowers for the next guests and took some home for themselves 🤍💕

Ended the day in the garden harvesting some beauties for tomorrows orders. 💜

After months of nursing & watching these babies grow, I’ve got to say its so rewarding seeing them finally in bloom. It’s been a real test to my patience growing flowers but the joy they bring to myself & others makes it so worth while. 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻

Get in touch if you’d like some blooms for the Christmas table, am doing orders til Sat. 🌸

It’s beginning to feel like Christmas at Poppy’s place, the cicadas are singing and the flowers are blooming. Got to be our favourite time of year! 🕊️
