What's available from flower farms in the UK in November

November is a month of change for growers. Those growing outdoors will stop sales apart from foliage, but will be busy planting and clearing. Those growing in glasshouses will need to deal with reduced light and heat. Dried flowers will need to be carefully stored to prevent mould and deterioration, and we’ll all be preparing for the Christmas rush. So what is available if you want to use just British Grown in November?

Heather James Chrysanthemum

In November Chrysanthemum are the main focal flowers. The stars of the show, and in a wonderful range of colours.

Also available from the glasshouses of the UK are Lilies and filler flowers like Sweet William, Campanula, Tanecetum, Alstromeria and Antirrhinum. The first of the Narcissus come from the Isles of Scilly, and Dried flowers are key for colour, and winter installations.

And even if those flowers don’t take your fancy, seasonal foliages are available for bouquets and displays.
