Hi flower friends 👋🏻

We’ve been a little bit late giving our latest podcast episode a shout out thanks to Nicole’s unfortunate bout of pneumonia - she’s on the mend but it’s meant we’ve been a little behind on telling you to go listen to our lovely chat with the fabulous Polly Nicholson

Polly chats to us about her love of tulips, especially the more unusual historic ones and of course we have a good moan about the slugs that seem to have blighted us all this year. We also chat about Polly’s amazing new book, The Tulip Garden: Growing and Collecting Species, Rare and Annual Varieties, which is not only stunning but tells you everything you could wish to know about growing tulips. It’s available in all good book stores and Amazon right now. It’s tulip bulb buying season so it’s a great time to have a read of it whilst chilling out in the garden writing your order list! 🌷

This season of the podcast will be coming to an end shortly so we’d love to hear what you’ve loved about it and also if you could leave a review for this episode and the others wherever you listen to your episodes that would be amazing ⭐️

We are back with another episode this week and it’s a story we can’t wait to share with you, a career change. The very lovely went from transatlantic cabin crew to digging the land and becoming Head Garden Tutor at the incredible

August is the definition of someone who decides what they want and goes for it and is an inspiration for those of us that might be looking to do something different with their lives so make sure you’ve got a cup of something ready to hear how she did it.

Oh and we’ve got the usual laughs and flowery chat that you’re all here for too!

In this week’s episode we chatted to Marryn about her recent dahlia sale - thank goodness that level of dahlia madness hasn’t reached the U.K. yet although if we could get hold of some of those varieties we’d be going wild for them too! If you’re in the northern hemisphere and your risk of frost has passed, it’s time to get those dahlias in the ground! Marryn has started hers already and we’ll be getting onto it soon too. Have you started yours yet and which ones are you looking forward to most? 🌸

All this talk of sweet peas with this week’s guest Marryn has got us desperate to see and smell these beautiful flowers! Sweet peas are one of the absolute delights of flower season because you so rarely find anything so heavily scented. Unfortunately you’ve missed the boat for seed sowing to get any this year but it’s worth checking if any of your local growers, garden centres or even supermarkets have an seedlings available to purchase. And once you’re hooked, you should definitely go down the seed sowing route which is far more cost effective never mind more fun!! If you’ve got no idea what you’re doing, the Director of Enabling runs her Sweet Pea School later in the year so follow her to find out more.

Don’t forget if you want to hear Marryn’s favourite sweet pea varieties, you can sign up to be a Patreon subscriber. For less than a fancy coffee, you can support us and we pay you back with a super secret side episode for every guest. Thank you to our existing Patreons, this podcast would not exist without you 🩷

If you’ve listened to this week’s episode already, you’ll know what Marryn’s exciting news is - she’s writing a book dedicated to sweet peas! As the queen of sweet peas, we say it’s about damn time she did and we can’t wait to have this on our flowery bookshelves!

It got us thinking though… if you were to write a book; what would it be about? Would it be flowery, or something like Nicole’s plan to write “Memoirs of an Allotmenteer” one day 🤣

Aaaaand just in case you were wondering this is the Granny’s Garden Mix as mentioned in the episode!

It’s back to tell us the ins and outs of what it takes to run a MEGA dahlia sale.

We also came up with business titles for Nicole and Sarah, Chief Dahlia Officer and Head of Projects - what would yours be?
