November is the month we’re all cooking up something wonderful. Some of us are on turkey duty, some are bringing the pie, and here at The English Garden, we’re in charge of the flowers. For our November Bouquet of the Month, we threw in everything but the kitchen sink. Yes, even the kale! 🥬🍂

Our recipe starts with ornamental kale, roses, and chrysanthemums. Then come the good bits that make November flowers so much fun. Hypericum berries, golden wheat, glossy magnolia leaves, and fragrant eucalyptus fill out a mix of plum, burgundy, bronze, rust, and green, with a pop of creamy ivory. And the leftovers are lovely, too. Tuck a few stems of wheat and magnolia into a bud vase once the blooms have had their moment.

Bring one to the friend who said “just bring yourself,” or set one on your own Thanksgiving table. Choose a single or double bouquet, wrapped or in a vase. For someone you’re especially thankful for, our discounted 3-month Bouquet of the Month subscription gives them fresh flowers to look forward to long after the last slice of pie. 🥧

Designed by Kate and handcrafted by our Raleigh team with flowers and foliage from Mayesh Raleigh, Potomac Floral Wholesale, Piedmont Wholesale Flowers, and CynMar Wholesale. Wraps by Nashville Wraps.

Order at englishgardenraleigh.com by 3 PM Monday–Friday, 1pm on Saturday for same-day delivery in Raleigh and the Triangle.

I didn’t celebrate Halloween growing up. My main memory is of us cutting all the lights until the trick-or-treaters were done. Then there was the year Mom chased a few of them down the street after they got into the buckets of pecans we’d just gathered and left on the porch. I was more than a bit jealous of the kids who got to dress up. The ones who got into Mom’s pecans? A little less so. 🎃

On afternoons when I didn’t have to go to my folks’ flower shop after school, I’d watch The Munsters and Bewitched. That was about as witchy as life got. Funny how, in the 20 years since we opened The English Garden, Halloween has become one of my favorite floral holidays. Every year our team gets to make a little boo-tiful magic of our own.

This year we got a head start. In September, Eliza Kraft Olander and Ashley Christensen hosted the Women on a Mission dinner at Eliza’s home to benefit the Frankie Lemmon Foundation. Eliza dreamed up a Four Seasons theme, so of course we leaned into Halloween for the fall table. A wrinkle and a twitch of the nose and… p**f! ✨ The season came to life.

I loved sourcing those wickedly wonderful ladies from December Diamonds. Our Lil’ Ashley helped me curate a beautiful menu of blooms from Mayesh Raleigh, Potomac Wholesale, Piedmont Wholesale, and Greenpoint Nursery. Marcela led our design team across all four seasons, but I think you can guess which table was my favorite.

Hats off to Team Halloween! Marcela, Randy, Olesia, Kate, Jeannine & Sarah, your work was nothing shy of bewitching. Thank you to Avery Mason for the wonderful photos and to the incomparable Eliza for opening her beautiful home to us. 🧡

Happy Halloween every one!

October has entered the chat. 🍂🌷🎃

It was a busy Saturday. Homecoming posies & boutonnières. Wedding bouquets. Plants for a memorial. Roses for an anniversary. Centerpieces for a company milestone.

Every bouquet with a purpose. Every bloom part of a story. And in the midst of the flower hustle & bustle, a design moment that’s been part of our story since year one.

We’ve been designing a bouquet for a special lady every birthday for 20 years. Her lovely family calls from Florida every October with the request to send her an arrangement that is fun and unique with lots of color and variety. Just like her. Thanks for letting us share in this special day. Since 2006.

Anthuriums & oncidium orchids from Green Point Nurseries, Inc.
Nerine lilies, crocosmia, tulips, spider gerberas, & Miss Piggy roses from Mayesh Raleigh | Wholesale Flowers
Antique hydrangea & Sahara spray roses from Potomac Floral Wholesale
Eucalyptus & Italian ruscus from Cyn Mar Wholesale Florist
Vase & ribbon from burton + BURTON

A vase we are totally "Mod" about!

Meet Mid Century, a serence design of white, blue and fresh green in one of our favorite new vases from Accent Decor. A matte, color blocked ceramic playing to all our midcentury modern feels. And we think it is the perfect way to kick off a Monday. Clean, crisp, organized and with the perfect splash of chill. It’s the floral equivalent of clearing your desk, taking a deep breath and deciding that maybe—just maybe—we’ve got this week handled.

Design by Marcela. Flowers from our friends at Mayesh Raleigh, Potomac Wholesale and CynMar, with seasonal touches from Stemz and Piedmont Wholesale Flowers.

Here’s to starting the week with good design, beautiful flowers and just a little more zen.

Happy Monday from The English Garden.
