"Hello Elizabeth! Today I received the most beautiful packaged quality strawflowers. They are perfect and I have just done another order and maybe cleaned out your shop. I will be using these with our native greenery from around the farm for our wedding floral arrangements and I am now so excited for our day to come together with these perfect magical pops of colour, that I will be able to reuse to remind of of our day for a really long time."– Jackie E. | Byaduk, VIC
"Dear Elizabeth, I just had to thank you for the MOST beautiful packages that have arrived today and last week from your store. I genuinely gasped when I unwrapped the pink dried strawflowers. So, so sweet and delicate, the colours are truly unreal and the perfect colour for an upcoming brides floral crown! I am beyond thrilled and hopeful for the collection of seeds to begin my own little garden for my floral work. Thank you so much for your beautiful work and the caring energy you deliver into all areas of your practice."– Annie D. | Red Hill, QLD
"Hi Elizabeth, I just wanted to let you know that my item had arrived safely. The wreath is stunning; you went above and beyond! Thank you so much. I look forward to purchasing from you again in the future. And thank you for your posts. I love seeing your garden, work station and your kids enjoying all your garden/flower magic. My son and I went exploring the riverbanks the other day and I got to introduce him to sea holly and billy buttons. I felt inspired by you so thank you!"– Teilah R. | Horsham, VIC
"Hi Elizabeth, You have been so incredibly kind and wonderful to be in contact with. You have gone above and beyond with me and I appreciate it so much. I will continue to buy from you in the future. Love your beautiful flowers!"– Monette L. | Sydney, NSW
"Hi Elizabeth, Your garden is looking amazing! This week my first two paper daisies bloomed from seeds I bought from you and I wanted to share this with you. If it weren’t for you, I would never have known how beautiful these flowers are. Thank you so much for bringing these gorgeous flowers into my life. I can’t tell you how happy they’ve made me."– Sharon L. | Hamlyn Terrace, NSW
"Dear Elizabeth, I am writing to express my gratitude for the beautiful wreaths and flowers that I have recently received. They are stunning and fill my heart with joy every time I look at them. Thank you very much, your work is filled with love and it is so nice to enjoy these beautiful floral displays in my home."– Kerren M. | Collingwood, VIC
... in solitude, or in that deserted state when we are surrounded by human beings and yet they sympathise not with us, we love the flowers, the grass, and the waters and the sky. In the motion of the very leaves of spring in the blue air there is then found a secret correspondence with our heart.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF COUNTRY
I acknowledge and respect the traditional custodians of the land on which I live, grow, forage, and work.
This includes the Dunghutti, Ngarigo, and Awabakal People. I recognise their love and connection to country - to the land, the mountrains, the sea, the soil, the trees, the plants, the wildlife, the flowers, and the seasons.
I strive to emulate this compassion for nature and to always increase my knowledge of indigenous culture and traditional land practices.
I pay my respects to First Nations people and to elders past, present and emerging.
Last night in the fields I lay down in the darkness to think... but instead I fell asleep, as if in a vast and sloping room filled with those white flowers that open all summer, sticky and untidy, in the warm fields. When I woke the morning light was just slipping in front of the stars, and I was covered with blossoms...
I don't know if my body went diving down under the sugary vines in some sleep-sharpened affinity with the depths, or whether that green energy rose like a wave and curled over me, claiming me in its husky arms. I pushed them away, but I didn't rise. Never in my life had I felt so plush or so slippery, or so resplendently empty...
Never in my life had I felt myself so near that porous line where my own body was done with and the roots and the stems and the flowers began.
