The Zinnia - a bringer of colourful joy to a patio planter, a roof terrace, pot or a cottage garden, Shining brightly in any garden border and with their colour flair, Zinnias really are a horticultural delight!
Paulie shares his fun and factual tips on how to plant and enjoy these little late summer beauties. They are super easy to grow and very tolerant in our ever evolving warmer climates.
You can use Zinnias to make a vibrant and colourful table centre decoration to brighten up any lunch or dinner party, or a casual splash of colour on any window sill in a jam jar.
Zinnias have such an endearing message within the language of flowers - Floriography - and Lucy and Paulie share this and other wonderful stories
Did you know there are several different types of Zinnia and they each have different and rather engaging petal formations. So there’s really a Zinnia for everyone as you can choose between not only their bright and joyful colour palette, but also their shape and texture too. It’s a win, win!
For our Floriography focus this week, Lucy and Paulie wax lyrical on all things Hops. That wonderful autumnal bounty that can be found for picking in British hedgerows and ordered through any florist for use in many spectacular ways. They lend themselves so beautifully to decorations, table extravaganzas and mantlepiece awnings.
While Paulie shares some incredible stories of how he uses Hops for his amazing floristry work, Lucy uncovers facts about the medicinal, soporific and even flavoured recipe possibilities with Hops and finds out that they are rather quirky in the way they grow too. But take care when you’re near them as they can cause adverse reactions to some.
Did you know that Hops can help you sleep? You can use them for this purpose in many different ways: You can eat them, drink them in tea, pop them under your pillow, smoke them and if all those fail, then you can simply drink them in a few pints of your favourite beer! Any which way - you're bound to have a restful nights sleep.
It's such a fun way to pass 20 minutes with this Fabulous Flowers tv duo whenever you have a window of opportunity to spare. Or, why not make time and simply sit back and relax and enjoy this uplifting and fun banter between Lucy & Paulie. Let this two floral twosome bring a little joy and colour into your day and leave you with a smile on your face.
