How To Grow A Flower Garden

W﻿e have teamed up with Sheffield Botanical Gardens to deliver a schedule of seasonal horticulture and floristry workshops to help you get the most from your flower garden. You can book onto the whole 6 weeks, or book the workshops individually.

Join us for an introduction to flower growing and planning a flower garden. This is the first session in the series that will help you identify the aims of your growing space and introduce you to the main plants and flowers that you can grow. By the end of the session you will be able to recognise the differences between annuals, biennials and perennials and when they can be sown and will feel confident in selecting ideal plants for cutting and understand appropriate planting distances and bed layout.This session will be d﻿elivered by the team from <a href="https://www.bloomsheffield.com/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Bloom Sheffield</a>, a community garden for women, promoting positive mental health through therapeutic horticulture. We run weekly flower growing groups for women to improve their health and wellbeing, reduce social isolation and teach and share skills. We manage three gardens across Sheffield and grow all of the flowers we use in our bouquets and arrangements. As a not-for-profit organisation, all the money we raise from the sales of our flowers go back into the garden and supporting women’s mental health in the community.Tea, coffee and friendly faces all included. T﻿his is the booking for the first session of the course ONLY.
