I am a peony rose grower in North West Tasmania who has taken a sustainable, organic approach to cut flower production.

As a passionate horticulturist and permaculturist I have spent the last two years establishing Blackwood Springs Flower Farm with a focus on promoting soil health to achieve maximum plant health.

New cut flower chrysanthemums, huge range of colours & flower shapes. Very excited with this selection which will extend my growing season. I will have spares for sale once I get them all potted up.

Great night at the RSL ball. So happy with the head piece, was a little worried about the mechanics of it all, but a few hair clips and it stayed on all night.
Love making these things it's a bit of fun.

My new cutting propagation system. I love it!
3 weeks from cutting to potting up.
Physocarpus, hydrangea, carnation, chrysanthemums plus trying some Banksia.

Brief was wattle & natives.
So great to create a piece with locally grown flowers.

What an honour it was to make this casket spray.
Some of my own flowers and some local growers made this possible.
The flower meanings really help me in the design process.
Rosemary for remembrance
Banksia for strength & resilience
Waratah for heritage
Flannel flower for tenderness & general comfort.

I have a new little worker in the hot house. 🪰🦟🐞
He is a hoverfly a beneficial insect often mistaken for a bee or wasp, but they are actually flies.
These little fellas eat nector or pollen but their larvae eat aphids, scale, whitefly & thrips. They can eat 500 to 700 hundred aphids before pupating. 🕷🪰🦟🐞
So the white bag hanging in the background is a predalure product which is suppose to lure benefical insects.
Looks like it's working.

Seedling baby's are growing,
20 + years on and I still get excited every time a seedling pops its head through the soil.
They say the simple things in life give the greatest pleasure.🌱

A sad farewell, but hopefully enjoyed by the family.
A sprig of rosemary hidden in the bouquet for remembrance.

One of my favourite things to do, Chrysanthemum cuttings.
Such an easy way to fill the garden. Within 3 to 4 weeks your cuttings should have roots.
More plants means more flowers.
