Please order by midday (GMT) on 15th November to give us chance to send you out the joining info. Orders received after this time may not get the all important email but we will definitely send you the recording after the session has taken place.
Ranunculus and anemones can be notoriously fiddly to grow. Yet a spring crop of happy anemone faces, and rich, luxurious ranunculus is an amazing way to start your cut flower patch season.
Join flower farmer and florist Georgie Newbery as she takes you through an hour-long demo detailing all the tips and tricks which will help ensure your anemones and ranunculus are the envy of the neighbourhood.
From ordering corms and claws, to sprouting, to compost, to protecting from mice and frost: from soil conditions, to warmth and light, to watering and feed, Georgie will take you through every step so that you too can have a wonderful display of these spring beauties for cutting.
(You don't need to be growing in a polytunnel or greenhouse to benefit from this demo.)
Why do a workshop or demo with Common Farm Flowers?
Georgie Newbery has been building her small business growing flowers for sale and creating floristry with material she’s grown on the farm since 2010. She is a Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) Floristry Judge, RHS dahlia trials committee member, and Garden Media Guild New Talent Award Judge.
Georgie does not see other flower farmers and florists as competition, but rather as potential colleagues and collaborators. Georgie knows that it is in her interest to teach her students everything she knows. And she spends a great deal of time talking to other flower farmers and small business owners and learning as much as she can around the subject of running small businesses and farming gardens and small acreage.
There are no secrets held back from you at a Common Farm Flowers workshop.
Information about all our online workshops and demos:
You are welcome to join our workshops and demos whether you grow for pleasure or profit, and wherever you are in the world.
All our online workshops and demos take place via Zoom at 5.00pm (UK time.)
Workshops last approximately two hours and demos are around one hour.
Online workshop numbers are generally restricted to a maximum of 20 students.
We will be in touch a few days before the workshop with your joining instructions. This email will come from nicola@commonfarmflowers.com. If you’ve not heard from Nicola 48 hours before the session takes place please email nicola@commonfarmflowers.com but do please first check your junk / spam items and make sure you are checking the inbox of the email address you used to book your place.
We record all our sessions, which means you don’t miss out if, for example, you get interrupted or lose internet connection during the course of the session.
All our online workshops and demos work well if you can’t attend live. Simply book your place as if you were coming along and we will send you the recordings as soon as possible after the session has taken place.
We will send recordings (and notes for workshops) within 7 days of the session taking place, but usually much sooner than this.
Please familiarise yourself with our terms and conditions in case you need to cancel your workshop or demo place.
