Peach Season

When you’re thinking of someone in sympathy often our first thought is to send a bunch of flowers… another thought is to send a pot plant ~ particularly if it’s a special plant or flower that was a favourite of the loved one who has passed on…

On Norfolk, when we all know each other in our small community, it’s possible to quietly find out that particularly favourite flower or plant. At Peach Season we’d love to be able to give that ‘extra special’ thinking of you gift on your behalf. Just email us (gifts@peachseason.com) with the request and we can arrange it all for you.

We recently gifted a lavender pot plant in remembrance of a loved one for the family.

Your thought or expression or personal wording of a message can mean ‘the world’ to someone who is feeling loss and sadness in their world.

Lavender pot plant

I look in the cupboard to see columns of piled up take-away coffee cups… I’ve been wondering what to do with them? How could I re-use them somehow because I just can’t throw them away…

Browsing a ‘House & Garden’ Magazine I came across this perfect idea… to recycle coffee cups as plant containers! Using scissors I cut a couple of small holes in the base, then filled with soil and water crystals, then added the plant cutting.. they’re working wonderfully..!

A habit or a vice? …my daily take-away coffee routine? But now it seems okay, because I have all these cuttings lined up on the verandah…

And they’ll be ready to share for Mother’s Day gifts… Just not sure whether to re-pot them into terracotta pots or would it be a quirky gift to receive a flower plant in a take-away coffee cup? Maybe I could add a Coffee Voucher? Now that could be fun!!
