WHO WE ARE

My name is Shona and I am a flower farmer who offers flowers that capture a natural, gathered-from-the-garden style, so you can bring the charm of nature into your home or next event. I am a flower lover through and through, my style incorporates garden blooms with natural elements and lush foliage. Textural, botanical and inspired by the seasons, I am proud to grow the majority of the flowers I use in my designs on our two properties. The bulk of the spring and summer flowers are farmed in Tamworth with our beautiful rich black soils, with all our native flowers growing on our beef cattle property 9kms out of Manila where the soil is highly fertile red to chocolate basalt.

SEASONAL GROWING

King George Farm produces fresh seasonal blooms from early Spring to early Autumn. Peak flowering season runs from September through January, depending on the weather conditions. I plant and tend flowers in the fields during every month, even if the flowers aren’t blooming.

HOW TO CARE

Flowers are handpicked within 24 hours of being sold, providing you with the longest vase life possible. Our bouquets are hand tied and wrapped, then left in water until purchase. We recommend trimming your flowers upon arrival, utilizing flower food, and using the cleanest vessel available. The more you trim and provide your flowers with fresh, clean water, the longer they will last.
