What's available from Artisan flower farms in the UK in April

This April has been warmer than usual so a larger range has been available

April is the key month for all kinds of Tulips from commercial and Artisan growers. Fringed, Parrot, Double and tall single tulips in almost every colour are available during this month.

Although most of the single varieties will stay upright on rigid stems, other varieties are designed to hang, swan necked like Dutch masters

In April, Anemones and Narcissus will continue, and Ranunculus and Poppies from Polytunnels will be joined by lots of blossom from shrubs on the field. Below are photos of my April favourites, Apple blossom, White lilac, which always comes out before my May purple. Spirea Bridal wreath, and Choisya Aztec pearl.

The colour in flowers will be from:

Tulips, Narcissus, Wallflowers, Ranunculus and Early Bluebells

The next batch of blooms are budding up on the field, and just some sunshine is needed for the Outside crops to take off
