Last weekend was open day at Debbie Scott's East Lothian Flower Farm. After a guided tour of the flower farm we sat in an open-sided tent and Debbie and her husband, John, efficiently helped by their two young sons, served us all with good strong coffee and cake, before Debbie gave a demonstration on putting together a hand-tied posy, with flowers she had cut from her flower beds. And then it was our turn. We had all brought a jam jar and we set about filling it. It was a delightful way to spend Saturday morning, in the sunshine.
The muted light in the poly tunnel stole colour from the chocolate cosmos, but they still remain an intensely sumptuous flower, much loved by florists.
What a fabulous place....a flower farm, what could be better!

It is a lovely place - just up my alley! You can see the flowers I used in my jam jar in last Monday's vase! Great fun! A xx
