Pick your own flowers
30th July- 4th September 2022
Following on from last year’s success, we will again be sowing pretty flowers to brighten everyone’s day….
.… and to celebrate Her Majesty The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee this year, we will be adding an array of ‘red, white and blue’ to the patch!
Flower picking at the Country Pumpkins patch
Mixed Annuals – Comprising 19 different varieties, these proved a huge hit with visitors last year and they really do make the prettiest posies! They include: Zinnia, Marigold, African Marigold, Malope, Cornflower, Cosmos, Mallow, Annual Centaurea, China Aster, Annual Baby’s Breath etc… They’ll last 7 days in fresh water and faded blooms are constantly replaced by new opening buds!
Sunflowers - We will be adding new varieties of pollen-free Sunflowers for cutting, alongside a vast block of traditional ‘Giants’ for some fun photo opportunities!
There is NO NEED TO BOOK. Just turn up on your day and time of choice.
