About me

I am fifty-two, and for most of my life I bought flowers. Then I took on an allotment, planted one long bed of dahlias and cosmos, and found that I could fill every vase in the house from May until the first frost. Now I grow about forty kinds, and I bring a bucket of them to a market near me on Saturdays.

I show the whole year here: sowing in the greenhouse, picking in the morning, arranging at the kitchen table, lifting tubers in the autumn. What I sell is the part that is useful to you. There are planners, growing guides and bouquet cards to print, and two video courses for growing your first bed and arranging what you pick.
