How are you going to develop your business this season? Well if you have been following along with #flowerfarmerama you might have already heard me say that I am re-designing my website. It is a few years old and not mobile responsive enough so it needs a complete overhaul. I am surprised and delighted that I have managed to post every day during January. I have found it interesting to follow a social media challenge and hopefully you havent fallen asleep learning a little bit more about My Fl

What a wonderful day yesterday was. The @flowersfromthefarm annual conference. A time to meet up with friends old and new and recharge for the year ahead. We listened to an inspirational flower demo by @shaneconnollyandco who wowed us with his gorgeously natural urns and tablescape. We had speakers and demos and break-out sessions to inform educate inspire and support us all in our own businesses. To name just a few there was @andthrive giving us ideas how to keep our creative inspiration @janne

All white & cream winter or early spring flowers can be captivating especially when paired with interesting foliage tones. It was lovely to tall colour schemes with couples on Sunday at the @casterleybarn wedding showcase. What colour scheme did you have when you got married? Would you choose it again? If you are getting married? What colour scheme are you thinking of for your flowers? #britishflowers #weddingflowersinspiration #wiltshirewedding #wiltshireflorist #wildflowerwedding
Hope these flowers brighten your day These beauties went off to their new home today carrying the above message! So sweet! I hope they brighten your day too! #britishflowers #wiltshireflorist #wiltshireflowers
Fridays Fun Flower Fact! Did you know tulips continue to grow in the vase after they are cut? That is why some people say they go floppy when you have a vase of just tulips. Its just that theyve grown. For this reason when Im creating a bouquet or vase arrangement I place the tulips a little lower so that they grow into the arrangement. #britishflowers #fridayfunflowerfact #wiltshireflorist #wiltshireflowers
