Join Molly Mahon and Polly Nicholson of Bayntun Flowers for a day of creativity celebrating tulips. You will plant up a terracotta pot with tulips to take home as well as block printing your own 40x30cm frilly cushion using Molly's tulip blocks.
Bayntun Flowers are organic growers of rare and unusual flowers, cultivated in a series of walled gardens and a one-acre field at the foot of the Marlborough Downs in Wiltshire. Tulips are a specialism; Polly Nicholson is holder of the National Collection of Tulipa (Historic) with Plant Heritage and a member of the RHS Bulb Expert Group.
After a welcome cup of tea or coffee with cake, Polly will explain how she grows tulips sustainably in the garden at Blacklands. Then you'll take a walk around the extensive gardens, looking at possible locations to naturalise species tulips in herbaceous settings, grass and gravel. As September is the beginning of the planting season, it is a perfect time to start planning your spring displays and all questions will be welcomed.
All required materials are included and the workshop is suitable for all levels with no experience necessary.
You will be working with fabric paint - aprons are provided for use on the day, but we advise not to wear your finery!
Location: Blackland House, Calne, Wiltshire, SN11 8UQ
