Seasonal flower notes from the bench.
Notes from the Flower & Glory bench in Sevenoaks: what is in season and why it matters, how to keep a bunch at its best, the studio’s year as it happens.
The first notes are being written. They will be about three things:
- What is in season: what comes fresh from the auction each week, and why a stem is at its best in its own month.
- Keeping them: how to look after a hand-tied bunch, an arrangement or a wreath.
- The studio’s year: the Christmas wreaths, the Mother’s Day fortnight and a summer of weddings.
Meanwhile, the studio’s working knowledge is already on the site: the meaning of every flower we sell, stem by stem; how to keep a bunch at its best; and the answers to the questions people ask before they order, from the delivery cut-off to what happens when nobody is in.
