The Roving Petaler
Bespoke floral design. Bespoke flowers to brighten your home, your event, or just to make you happy.
Summer was great and the garden is still abundant. Sometimes the best things are just outside or your door, or growing like weeds along the highway. Go get it!
Happy mid-summer flower friends. The garden has been sooo dry but still beautiful and surprisingly resilient. As a relatively new grower I’m learning what can stand the heat and what wilts in the face of adversity. This little posey is a small but mighty example of living well in spite of obstacles! May we all be this posey. Xx
Picnic season has arrived!
A little summer sherbet. Happy Friday!
Sunday flowers. 🌸
A happy reminder from my camera reel that Great Dixter and its gardens, and its and gardeners are some of life’s great gifts.
May Day party posies.
The Roving Poodler inspecting an arrangement and wondering why on earth we are putting flowers in a vase when we could be walking through them! Happy Monday all.
Long lasting flowers because of the cold cold spring. Well take the win. Happy Friday.
Valentine, pal-entine, gal-entine’s Day, or just because it’s a Tuesday. All good reasons to have flowers around! Happy day all.
February pinks. Happy weekend all.
I always think I’m a summer girl but this time of year warms my heart. Wreath making with some talented young ladies.
It’s about that time! .
Forgot.. Happy post Thanksgiving. Xx
🎃 Halloweenie.
A few more local stunners.
The local flower farmers are crushing it this week! Im learning how difficult their job is and am ever more appreciative of the beauty they grow!
Packing up these little firecrackers to help a wonderful charity celebrate their hard work. Happy weekend everyone.
These beauties.
Hopping into the weekend.
Tulip heaven.
Parties are back! For a special birthday girl.
Lady Bird Johnson once said “where flowers bloom so does hope”. I was so struck by the Ukrainian woman in the news yesterday who told the soldier to carry sunflower seeds in his pocket. A macabre but fitting sentiment among the madness. Let there be hope and flowers and peace for them all. Friday flowers to take the edge off of your feed today. .
All the colors for These Valentines. .
Golly!
Love the view from my office, don’t love all the math!
Winter flowers. Happy weekend. .
We are still waiting on packages from Christmas but somehow these lovely garden roses arrived right on time! (and roses). .
Happy, healthy, holiday wishes to all. Ox.
