one-day course

organic cut-flower growing

location: nr Lincoln

You don’t need to be an expert gardener, you don’t need loads of space and you don’t need to spend lots of money to get going! 

What you do get are vases full of flowers, a patch or border that looks fantastic and that attracts wildlife as well. This course talks you through the essentials of planning, growing and harvesting flowers – whether you have a window box or a whole garden.

The tutor is Rachel Petheram, who is passionate about English seasonal flowers and about producing flowers in a sustainable way. Rachel is also in demand as a wedding florist, and runs a successful business.
