What a lovely morning we had! It was so wonderful to meet some new faces and spend time together sowing autumn seeds for the cutting garden. There is something really special about this time of year — getting seeds into trays and thinking ahead to all the beautiful flowers that will come next summer. I loved watching everyone sow their seeds and ask such brilliant questions. It really made me so happy to share that knowledge together. A big thank you to all the lovely ladies who came along this morning. 🌿

If you've ever wanted to grow your own flowers for cutting, September is the moment to begin. Autumn-sown seeds produce stronger, earlier, more abundant plants than anything sown in spring — and this course shows you exactly how to do it.

Everything we teach follows sustainable, eco-friendly, no-chemical principles — the same way we grow our own Welsh flowers here at Flower Garden Florist.
