Fresh Flowers
Fresh Cut flowers.
Farlows’ Floriculture offer fresh cut flowers direct to the public by pre-order and appointment at our farm gate studio at Bells Creek.
Because the flowers are a seasonal product there are peaks and troughs in supply. With different varieties available through the different seasons. Making this a very ‘organic’ business model. Which means, whatever I can grow is what we sell when available.
Thank you for following along and supporting locally grown fresh flowers.
Posy Jars
Mixed seasonal flower varieties with shorter stems are available in glass jars.
These are a weekly surprise. Totally based on what flowers are available at the time.

A note about
Weddings & Events
My passion is in growing fresh flowers. To allow me to focus on growing I do not offer wedding and event design or individual delivery service – however I am happy to recommend a number of local florists who can help you.
What I grow
Flowers grown in our patch.
In line with the seasons I grow – Giant Zinnia, Double Cosmos, Stocks, Snapdragons, Queen Anne Lace, Sunflowers, Dahlias, Chrysanthemums, Calendula and Celosia.
Because I am obsessed with growing flowers I am always experimenting with different varieties to see what grows best in our little eco system. We are very fortunate to have a mild climate here on the Sunshine Coast and most of the basic varieties of cut flowers thrive here.
THE PROCESS
How I grow the flowers.
Crop Rotation
We rotate our annual crops, to help maintain excellent soil health & minimise pests.
This involves growing different types of flowers and plants in a particular area during different seasons.
Enrich the Soil
We continuously feed the soil with our worm castings, compost teas & blends made with our green garden waste plus various locally sourced animal manures.
Mulch is applied to help it retain moisture, protect our soil microbiology & help prevent plant disease.
Companion Planting
Aside from the benefits to our plants, companion planting uses our garden space more efficiently, letting us harvest more.
The diversity that companion planting provides is also good for pollinators, wildlife, and soil health.
Why I love to
grow flowers.
The rewards of picking beautiful fresh blooms and being sharing them with others is priceless. Hence our mission ‘Sharing the power of flowers’.
I really do believe there is a spark of magic that happens when people gift flowers to each other.
I enjoy the continual learning about all of the aspects of growing flowers and taking the time to watch carefully while mother nature goes about her business with a little bit of assistance from me.
The more experience I gain from growing my own fresh flowers the better equipped I feel about sharing my knowledge and experience with others who wish to tread the same path.
Most of all I enjoy spending my life with like minded people who love growing things. Anything! Just grow something. It is so good for your soul.
