November is the most wondrous cosy month to find joy in- the darker days may be here but lights are strung all over in anticipation for the occasions incoming- a dim sky only creates space for stars to shine. With the vases atop of our flower table filled, buckets underneath stocked to the brim, shelves adorned with so many gifts and trinkets, and a Christmas wreath on our door; the shop has never felt warmer.
We've loved spending the year carefully tucking away our favorite festive pieces, perfecting our mixed foliage designs and planning every floral element of Christmas to hopefully bring you a grotto of inspiration and delight that is finally ready to be shared.

Each month we bring together our favourite seasonal blooms in a gorgeous bouquet.
For this months bouquet, we have picked Plum, Raspberry and Cream colour tones in the form of Eustoma, Astrantia, Snapdragons, Alstroemeria and Roses (single and spray). With the cold spells and shorter days, Plum brings a little warmth, Raspberry brings a pop of colour and Cream brings a little light in the darkness. A beautiful arrangement to gift to a friend or fill your own vase with our November favourites.

Each month, new Flower species bloom and become the highlight of our flower table and our bouquet of the month. Our November flower table showcases Chrysanthemums, Thistles, Hydrangeas, Eustoma, Spray Roses, Hypericum Berries, Snapdragons, Astrantia, Astilbe, Wax Flower and Roses, all in the most beautiful rich tones! As always the foliage buckets are full underneath to accompany all our bouquets and bunches- although slightly fuller this time of year, with everything you need to make Christmas Wreaths and Garlands!
Every morning we receive a fresh flower delivery and arrange all of our beautiful blooms in vases on our table ready for you to pick up whichever steams you like! Simply pop in a vase at home to enjoy or we can arrange for you in a bunch or bouquet style.
Or why not let us choose our favorite seasonal flowers for you?

Autumn is upon us and plant care changes a little as the weather cools down and the sun makes shorter appearances. Follow the below advice to keep your house plants as happy and healthy as possible!
Watering: Give each plant a good water once a week, checking the soil is completely dry first. For any watering worriers, pop your plant in a bowl of water or the sink so it can soak up as much water as it needs.
Dusting and Spritzing: Something to definitely keep in rotation for your plants with big leaves! Clean leaves help retain sunshine and moisture improving growth.
This time of year, house plants do begin to go dormant so do not fear if your plant isn't producing many new leaves or reaching new heights! Continue to care and in spring/ summertime they will be back to their best.

With Winter pending and cold spells upon us, our beautiful gardens start their close down period and mindsets shift towards next year and planning for the best yet! With any downtime, pop an order in for seed catalogues and make a sowing plan for your garden (bearing in mind any seeds you may have saved in envelopes throughout the year).
If you have a greenhouse then this is the perfect time to give it a good clean out- we’re talking a wash inside and out and creating a stack of empty plant pots ready to be filled in the new year. All tools can be resharpened, cleaned and arranged in any orderly fashion, and ancillary supplies can be ordered to top up! Don’t forget to move any potted herbs such as parsley and chives indoors to continue cropping into Winter.
A couple of extra handy tips:
- You can continue to cut the lawn in mild spells but be sure to raise the height of the blades on your mower.
- If you have any thriving pots outside, wrap some hessian around to protect from frost damage.

We originally began as a market stall, trading at Ampthill Farmers Market every Thursday & Saturday, creating bunches & bouquets for all our lovely customers. In 2019, we moved into No9 Church Street and adore our little shop which is full to the brim with house plants, home accessories, gardening essentials and of course beautiful blooms!
Each floral design is created with high quality seasonal flowers and bespoke to each & every customers request. Our collection ranges from beautiful bouquets to filled jam jars to unique mossed fish bowls of flowers. Have a browse of our full range online or visit us in Ampthill to discuss.
We also cater for any occasions you may have upcoming. We specialise in bespoke designs for Funerals and Events, and after a free consultation we will be sure to make your floral dreams a reality. Heart is at the base of every creation, and we hope our flowers bring you as much joy as we have creating them.
