September flower farm tour at Common Farm Flowers in sunny Somerset, zone 8, south west England

Join flower farmer and florist Georgie Newbery of Common Farm Flowers in Somerset between fashionable Bruton and up-and-coming Wincanton as she harvests an autumnal, boho feeling, DIY wedding from her autumnal flower farm. With a lovely tour of the farm, spotting wildlife, autumnal feels, looking at seedlings planting out, dahlias surviving the storm, and finishing up with a beautiful arrangement for boutique hotel Number One Bruton, it's a cheerful clip with lots to harvest, despite the rain, and lots to come - next season very much in view.
For an extended, ad-free version of this clip, all the info re 'the project,' and all Georgie's new clips with extra tips, news and regular live at 5s, do join her KZbin club. You can join up here: / @theflowerfarmer

I am in love with the romance of England! Bruton is a medieval castle dream town and the prices at No. 1 Bruton are reasonable considering the setting (I had to google it). I had the privilege of visiting England a few times while my son worked in Harrogate in Yorkshire. I came home more deeply in love with the countryside and architecture than ever. My ultimate vacation would be to visit you and do one of your workshops and then spend a month roaming the country. Sadly, now I'm 75 on a pension so I can only visit through your YT channel and try to emulate your gardens and floristry my at home in Oklahoma. xoxo

glad you like the look of Bruton - it is a lovely old town - and now I'm singing OOOOOOAKLAHOMA, where the wind etc and will do all day xxx

I fell madly in love with Cotinus, when I saw it for the first time in all its flaming glory, last Autumn - it was a stand out in its setting - my local historical mansion garden. The variety i saw, to my great delight, had bigger leaves, but still the same shape as yours, but the colour of our Australian Cotinus was not nearly as dark burgundy, as yours - the one i saw had a magical, orangey, flame pinky, peachy colour, with just a hint of darker cherry red around the edges of the leaves. I pinched a big handful of the leaves that were scattered on the ground, and I still have them here in a wicker basket beside me - they are rather crisp and crunchy now, but have still retained their divine colours. They call it the Smoky Flame Bush here, because in the Summer it gets those weird, fluffy wisps of white on the branches, that look like clouds of smoke. Anyway, the reason I am rhapsodising so poetically about Cotinus, is I had a very intense reaction to it - no, I don't mean allergic sneezing! I mean, I was so amazed by the stunning colours of the leaves, that I actually wept for joy. Mad, I know! I'm sure there must have been moments in the garden that have moved you to blub in the same astonishing way, Georgie!

[@theflowerfarmer]

the garden often astonishes me with colour - glad I'm not the only one x

[@jennyjohnson9012]

[@theflowerfarmer]

thank you x

[@stacyharris9669]

It’s all so gorgeous I need get get more fluent with the Latin !!!lol

[@theflowerfarmer]

there's a v good horti latin book by the RHS - such a great useful little resource xxx blackwells.co.uk/bookshop/product/9781845337315?gC=5a105e8b&gclid=Cj0KCQjw4bipBhCyARIsAFsieCxbSGXFas8Zlj5ezlW5v6a4b_qV7fFQMc78Jg1FACnXLT7P_os-cZgaAsNFEALw_wcB

[@Gloriusblooms]

Thank you for this clip…no drill noise please 😂 some music would be great 😊 great share video

[@theflowerfarmer]

I'm learning music adding - watch this space x

[@MyFocusVaries]

Thanks for the tour. That arrangement is gorgeous as always. (The blue framed window above your potting ledge is lovely.)

[@theflowerfarmer]

I love the blue - so cheerful on a dull winter's day x

[@riverunner9978]

I love the view through the gate. Your emerald paths are sublime. So pretty compared to landscape fabric.🐝🌻🌞

[@theflowerfarmer]

Thank you! 😊 - I am allergic to landscape fabric x

[@lafarmhouse]

another fabulous video tour🤎🌻🌸

[@theflowerfarmer]

Glad you enjoyed it x

[@1Thedairy]

Another very interesting tour. I thought I had a good knowledge of plants but you still came up with a few I hadn’t heard of! Must look up. The Zinnias are great value I think. They are easy to grow, stand up to all the weather conditions, slug resistant, don’t need stacking, long flowering and great for colour. Love your arrangement too. Stunning!

[@theflowerfarmer]

Glad you enjoyed! x

[@greyfeather7857]

Latin names yes please 👍🏻🌱as well as local common names for plants we also pronounce them differently so Latin saves any confusion. How’s the book coming along? Thank you for taking us along with you. x

[@theflowerfarmer]

book is coming - slowly - glad you agree re latin xxx

[@erwinroodt1245]

Stunning foliage and flowers. Thanks for a beautiful tour of the farm.

[@theflowerfarmer]

Glad you enjoyed it x

[@Victoria-mx1xd]

Great tour and lots of ideas thank you. I found your cutting video really useful, not overly long 😉

[@theflowerfarmer]

thank you x

[@beckyscheller9358]

Love the zinc bucket and flowers . Envy you your zone 8, zone 5 here in central Indiana USA. Not much gardening now except for clean up. ( no greenhouse either)

[@theflowerfarmer]

ooh beautiful autumn though I bet x

[@anniewildmush1284]

latin is the way to go. even for birds insects etc

[@theflowerfarmer]

totally agree - I must learn for birds and insects too x

[@jackieweber3662]

Love the tour. So, I guess I shouldn't punch down the spider webs?

[@theflowerfarmer]

No! xxx

[@bluetreedog1205]

Thanks always interesting 😊 cheeky little question as everyone seems to have a différent take on it.sowing eucalyptus baby blue. When and how si vous plaît. Greeting from brittany 😘

[@theflowerfarmer]

I don't grow eucalyptus - but you could as the Hardy Eucalyptus Nursery - I'm told they are extremely helpful. www.hardy-eucalyptus.com/

[@bluetreedog1205]

Thanks 👍 i will

[@alisonburgess345]

Georgie, do you cut your physocarpus to the ground at the end of the season?

[@theflowerfarmer]

noooooo! x

[@veppie0]

Thank you for using Latin names! Dutch names definitely don’t match the English common names😅

[@theflowerfarmer]

No problem 😊 - works well when I remember them! x

[@shanlynwebb]

Please no romantic music behind your clips. I’d rather the drill 🙏🏼🌸

[@theflowerfarmer]

lol - thank goodness for that! x
