You know those days where things don’t quite go to plan but people’s kindness just shines through.. I had one of those days 🤍.

On top of that - the smiles on people’s faces when they receive a surprise delivery, even in times of sadness - is the icing on the cake. They know they are being thought of and it clearly means so much 💜

Now.. where is the wine?! 🍷😉

Lavender harvest complete and bunches hung to dry. I find myself sitting on the floor of the studio, against the wall, underneath the bunches and looking up - the wonderful curly, messy stems -shaped in reaction to the repeated batterings from the rain.

Lavender is well known for its use in aiding relaxation, symbolising calm and healing - maybe that’s something to do with why I’ve ended up sitting here. The scent is almost overpowering. A true lavender haze 🌿

Roses are a timeless choice for wedding flowers - symbolising love and romance. The latest blog is all about using homegrown roses- rambling stems, full of individuality and scent to create the perfect scene on your big day 🤍

It’s nearly that time of year again 🤯 I cannot believe this was my very first official ‘job’ as Delilah and Herb one year ago. A special one for me this year too as my eldest leaves primary 🥲

So.. teacher bouquets are back, and even more gorgeous than before - best of British, all the smells, textures and colours.

All the info you might need is in the images below but please do ask if you have any questions 🤍🌿

Thanks to everyone who has supported flowers from the porch over the last few weeks 🌿

After some lovely feedback last week - flowers from the porch is back this weekend. £10 ber bunch - cash or card 🌿

All freshly cut, locally grown seasonal beauties 🤍

North Cottage, Riding Lane TN11 9QL

I often find myself in the studio just ‘playing’ - trying new things, seeing what works (and often what doesn’t).

I usually love my designs to be full of flower but with just a handful of stems at my disposal, this was a bit of test.

Still all locally grown, still all beautiful seasonal flowers - but just 7 stems, including the grass and the foliage. Paired with a beautiful plain compote bowl and a pin frog. Simplicity 🤍 A different kind of feel I think but I like it.

What do you think?

🌿THIS FRIDAY & SATURDAY 🌿

To celebrate you can pop along to North Cottage and treat yourself to some flowers from the porch this weekend. All beautiful British blooms grown locally and in our own garden/woodland.

Flowers will be in the rose porch Friday 12noon onwards and Saturday.

All bouquets £10 (cash or card).

Address: North Cottage, Riding Lane, Hildenborough. TN11 9QL 🤍🤍

Wedding photos 📸🤍

This was a special one for me - Sian was my first bride to book last year when I announced what I was doing. She knew me as an osteopath, not a florist, and it meant so much that she put her complete trust in me to deliver 😍
It was 100% having that booking that gave me a focus in the early days 🤍🤍

Fast forward a year and here we are at the stunning 🤵🏼👰🏼

Congratulations to you both 🥂🥂

Well that was a very lovely surprise! 🤍

So pleased to be awarded ‘New Business of the Year’ last night at the Business Awards.

Hiding right at the back of the auditorium, imposter syndrome going in full overtime, scraped my hair up ready to sit back, relax and enjoy the show.. and my name was called 🤭😍

So lovely to be part of a fantastic community of local businesses, all doing fabulous things in their own wonderful ways. My five mins of fame was the cherry on the top of a year of big decisions and hard work, which I have no doubt every business owner in the room has also experienced.

Thank you to Jess from the and everyone else who was involved in putting on a brilliant event 🥂🥂🥂

It is next week. Read all about whats going on, how to support your local flower farms and why I LOVE using British flowers.

A huge day for me today! - so so pleased to wake up this morning and read that I’ve been chosen as a finalist in the ‘New Business’ category for the business awards - very excited to get glammed up and meet all of the other incredible local business owners at the awards evening in few weeks 💃🏼😍

This news couldn’t have come on a better day though - today is the day I treat my last patient. After 18 years (literally half my life! 😳) I’m stepping away from the only thing I’ve ever known, to try something new. from today is my sole focus 😬

Waaaay more emotional than I’d ever have thought, it suddenly hit me over the weekend that so much in my life is because of my career choice - from meeting my husband, to being able to have kids and continue to work, to opportunities it has presented that have made big impacts on my life and still do.

So today - I have all the feels 🥲 and approx 3hrs to go until that’s it. A chapter closes and a very exciting new one really begins.

Wish me luck!
