Whether you're looking for a DIY flower experience, a picturesque setting for a party or special occasion, or a simple escape from the busyness of everyday, here’s everything you need to know to make your visit unforgettable.

What to Expect

Pick-Your-Own Flowers: Wander through our vibrant field of flowers, including vibrant dahlias & zinnias in summer, delicate ranunculus, and luscious peonies in spring, along with many other favourites. Enjoy the experience of selecting your own seasonal blooms from our wide range.
