~ Friday Farm Shop Flowers ~
I can’t believe it’s Friday again already and we’ve reached the longest day. How lovely it is to see the sun!
This week’s Farm Shop bunches are a bright cheery lot with Feverfew making it’s first appearance. The star of the show, though, has to be the catchily named ‘Hollandia Salmon Pink With Eye’ Sweet William. It’s a really unusual colour and very striking. It opens an intense salmon coral colour and fades to a softer pink. I love finding unusual varieties of well known flowers. Another favourite Sweet William is ‘Kaleidoscope’ which comes in a range of pinks and purples with different coloured flowers within the same head -most Sweet Williams have the same colour all the way through the flower head so this one is a bit more special.
The bunches will be on sale at Primrose Vale today so get them whilst they’re there.
Have a lovely weekend

Meet our favourite Snapdragon variety. This is Pink Trumpets and unlike traditional Antirrhihums, this one has open funnel shaped flowers rather than the ‘snapping’ blooms. This is a taller variety anyway but in our polytunnel, where the plants don’t have to grow shorter and sturdy to withstand the battering effects of wind and rain, and where the polythene filters the light, they grow lovely long stems like these.
There are other Snapdragons like these, in particular, the Chantilly series. Later this summer, we’re trialing Chantilly Bronze and Chantilly Strawberry Fool Mix. The bronze is meant to be especially stunning. Can’t wait!

We were really delighted that George Clarke @mrgeorgeclarke stopped at our stand earlier. I have no idea if he has any interest in the fact that the outdoor grown British flowers that we used in our display have about 10% of the carbon footprint of imported flowers, but he was good enough to stay and listen to me chattering away about it, then take a few pictures with us. Thank you George, you made our day!

It’s been a busy few weeks of weddings many brides choosing a meadow style of bouquets with lots of summer flowers, foliage with British grown flowers where possible and all made in a relaxed loose style. Love this time of year and the abundance of blooms and colours to choose from and also the opportunity to individually select and pick the flowers to be included, such a treat to be in the cutting gardens! #meadowflowers #rusticbouquet #weddingflowers #weddingbouquet #countrywedding #countryflowers #cuttingflowers #cuttinggarden #britishflowers #freshflowers #gardengathered #byarrangement #flowersfromthefarm #flowerlove #mystyle #aquietstyle #weddingseason #wiltshire #salisbury #gardenflowers
