ABOUT MY BUSINESS
I moved into Spaldington outside of Howden in the East Riding of Yorkshire in the Spring three year’s ago and brought with me tulips and alliums in large tubs and sweet peas and dahlias. The polytunnel soon went up and later in the year we dug a couple of very large beds for outside cut flower production! The soil here is extremely heavy clay, but full of goodness. I create my own compost from fallen leaves, grass cuttings, garden cuttings and vegetable garden waste – also lots of coffee grounds!
June is here and so is summer. Flowers are appearing later than last year. In fact today was the first time a summer bunch contained tulips and roses from my polytunnel! Seed planting started in March and will continue throughout much of the upcoming season. Foxgloves and Sweet Williams were planted today. As I look around the garden I see colour all around, the lilac is blossoming, the grass is so green and all my perennials are popping up too! Lizanne.
I am part of Flowers from the Farm a national group of flower growers. If you would like a bunch of locally grown British Flowers delivered, take a look! I deliver free within a 10 mile radius of Howden.
