Curated buckets of fresh, seasonal, field grown flowers. Blooms have been conditioned* and are ready for you to arrange. Whether you are purchasing to enjoy as part of your creative practice, or to arrange for your event, these garden grown beauties are a delight.
Each bucket will have one flower variety en masse and a blend of unique, textural garden stems to compliment the feature bloom. The flower combinations are seasonal.
Flowers are cut and conditioned the day before so they are ready to arrange. For this reason please order in advance so we can prepare for you.
Buckets have a carefully selected mix of focal flowers, foliage and interesting elements and will contain 70-80+ stems. For guidance, a bucket is enough for 2 medium table arrangements and a collection of bud vases or a creative table scape.
Strawberries used for styling - not included.
Pick up: We are located in Boyland. Pick up is available Tuesday, Thursday-Sunday.
*Conditioning of flowers refers to preparing your flowers for arranging. It's the essential prep step that ensures flowers absorb water and nutrients efficiently, making them strong and beautiful for arrangements.
