We are excited to share our beautiful Cornish Flowers Bunch with you, all grown here on our farm here in South West Cornwall.
The Cornish Flowers Bunch is likely to include scented Pinks, Verbena bonariensis, Snapdragons and Cornflower.
The Snapdragons are grown here from tiny plugs that arrive early in the season and are grown on for months in our tunnels before we starting cutting them in early to mid June. We cut them early in the day before the tunnels are too hot and they are conditioned in our cold store before they are ready to use.
The scented Pinks are grown in polytunnels right next to the flower barn where we prepare our orders and you simply cannot get fresher than that! These wonderful flowers are in season from May – October and we grow a range of colours including pale pink, white, lilac, purple and red. Although they are called ‘Pinks’ their name actually comes from the ‘pinked’ edges of their petals. ‘Pinks’ have a lovely clove-like fragrance and a good vase life.
The Verbena are grown here in one of our fields known as the ‘Four-acre’. These beautiful flowers are a bee magnet and you can hear the hum of the bees in that field!
The Cornflower are also grown here and are sown in late winter from tiny seeds and grown on in our polytunnels before being cut from mid June. They are mainly a strong Royal Blue in colour but there may be the occasional lighter blue or pink which sneaks in!
£30 including delivery. Your flowers will arrive wrapped in brown paper in our beautiful box with your choice of message on a card attached to the flowers.
