It's most definitely is Autumn and this weekend it all went bonkers for our fresh moss - getting ahead for Christmas has already started but lets PLEASE enjoy Autumn! It's good for the mind and body to adjust into the season and not race ahead skipping a season! We have such a lovely selection of products at the moment to add a pop of colour to your pumpkins. Loads of gourds and the Cinderella pumpkins too.

CROP REPORT 12th September 2022
An emotional time for the nation and indeed worldwide this week, as we learnt of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II passing away and the events that followed. Dutch prices predictably increased as demand for flowers soared.
The pressure on our growers, many of whom supply supermarkets has also increased with their orders doubling and tripling in some parts of the country as consumers show their respect by laying flowers. This in a period when seasonal heat and light level changes already impact supply has made for a few challenges.
