A lovely looking bed of wild carrot, I particularl A lovely looking bed of wild carrot, I particularly like the red version. I collected seed whilst walking on the Wirral coastline of Meols last autumn. And hey presto, a good balance of white and red it looks like. I'll be starting my own seed saving of biennials soon, so I get a well adapted version specifically for my little field. Hoping that will mean tough plants and sturdy flowers!

Here's a little tour of the main flower beds. It's Here's a little tour of the main flower beds. It's June 27th 2022, one and half years since starting growing here in Tetchill, Ellesmere. A mix of annuals, biennials and perennials all in mixed up rows - some plants are intentionally planted in separate blocks in case of disease, and also because nature loves mixing things up! And she probably knows best.  If there's ever an odd space where a plant has died, or finished flowering I'll fill it with something else pretty quickly, often interplanting as one finishes it makes room for the next crop.  A carefully crafted flowery plot 💐, everything I put on paper over  the winter has gone by the wayside and intuition  has taken over. Let's face it everything WILL grow if I get it in the ground in a timely manner!

This is Achillea 'The Pearl', a great multi purpos This is Achillea 'The Pearl', a great multi purpose perennial with mini button-like flowers that can be dried or used instead of gypsophila for weddings. Plus it's another nitrogen fixers.. I've dotted different Achillea's throughout my field for this purpose. Happy with the growth after sowing from seed last year. I'll be using it for both weddings and drying this year.

Early morning pickings.. another huge handful of I Early morning pickings.. another huge handful of Icelandic Poppies to complete a big DIY bucket order going up to Liverpool this morning 🌈 
Most of these were picked at cracking bud stage, and within an hour their casings had fallen away to reveal the crinkled petals inside. These can last 5 days if you sear the ends in boiling water  for 10 seconds. Well worth all the happy colours! There's lots of HOT🔥oranges for what's going to be a wonderful wedding celebration on Saturday. Congratulations to @dr_dowhittle I hope you have the best day 💚🙏💐
