Rows of zinnias in flower under a pink evening sky

Picked this morning, a mile from your door.

We grow everything ourselves on two acres off the Marston Road. No air freight, no foam, no flowers from Kenya pretending to be from Somerset.

Ruth started with four rows on her dad's allotment in 2017. Now it's two acres, a polytunnel and a barn with a cold store that used to be a milking parlour.

Tulips, ranunculus, narcissi, hellebores, blossom branches
June and July
Sweet peas, cornflowers, peonies, foxgloves, the first cosmos

Bouquets from £120. Whole wedding flowers usually £1,200 to £3,500. Booking 2027 now.
