Win a Place on a Cut Flowers Course at Perch Hill 27/9

Win a place on a Cut Flowers course at Perch Hill

Win a place on Sarah Raven's course, 'A Year Full of Vases' at Perch Hill, on the 27th September 2024.

In 2023 Sarah created a 20ftx20ft Cutting Patch and this course teaches you how you can do the same, and like her, be able to pick armfuls of flowers for a good nine months of the year. In this day course, she will talk you through her patch, explaining the design and planning process for plant rotations through the seasons so you can make the most of whatever space you have

She will provide hard facts and practical advice required for successful sowing, and for growing the very best and most productive plants. You will receive a handout on the day which will contain advice from Sarah on a month by month basis, suggesting what you should plan, sow, plant out and pick. Prolific flower production from March to November does require planning, and this day will give you all the tools you need to hit the ground running.

The afternoon will be predominantly floristry demos, covering arrangements both large and small for any occasion. We will also cover how best to condition your flowers and foliage, for ultimate vase life.

The day lasts from 10.30 till 3.30 including tea/coffee on arrival, (from 10am for 10.30 prompt start) morning tea/coffee break and a simple 2 course lunch using recipes from Sarah's cookbooks.
