This little guy was in a hurry to make an appearan This little guy was in a hurry to make an appearance 🫣 I found him in the garden last week when I was collecting dahlia seed heads before the rain. And today I found a completely confused gladioli flowering 😳 Jeepers! Flowers are incredible things and it always amazes me how they can keep suprising you in a new way each year. Have you found any bulbs flowering out of season for you at the moment? I'd love to know Xx #confusedbulbs #nottimeyet #gobacktosleep #quirkyblooms #flowersofinstagram #mountjoycottage
Mums for mother's Day. 💐 Chrysanthemums are a Mums for mother's Day. 💐 Chrysanthemums are a wonderful way to extend the flowering season as they flower just as the dahlias are finishing. We purchased a little collection a couple of years ago but among other projects they have been a little neglected. 😔 Luckily for me I photographed each plant with the name when I bought them so i was able to search through a reidentify them this season based on their flowers. 🥳 Current me is very grateful to past me for doing that. My favourite is the dark pink variety with the petals that look like it has little spoons on the ends 🥄 None of our plants are disbudded so the flowers are smaller but still beautiful. They also last ages in a vase! #mumsformums #chrysanthemum #autumnblooms #homegrown #slowflowers #microflowerfarm #mountjoycottage
We cracked 3,000 followers! To say this means th We cracked 3,000 followers! To say this means the world to me is an understatement. 😭 I started this page just shy of six years ago and one by one we have grown. I don't see myself as having an explosion of followers overnight but as something that has slowly grown and blossomed. Social media can be a difficult thing and I often struggle with the urge to compare to other people in my field and how they are doing. I can get quite down about it at times. Mostly when my mental health is struggling. But if I take my time and refocus and stay in my lane and concentrate on being me and doing what I do best, no one else matters. It doesn't matter how fast I'm growing. It matters that you are there and that I show up. In reality if I tried to speak to a room of 3000 people that would be phenomenal, so why do I talk down to myself and say that isn't good enough? No one else can tell me my worth but me and it's a slow process of changing the way I perceive being good enough. Because no matter what I do I am. So I should just be me and enjoy the journey. I am Excited and scared about the future and the possibilities other than flowers. I really hope you'll join me for the ride. I am honestly so grateful for each and every one of you. One by one as this page grows I celebrate the fact that you choose to come on this journey with me. That is huge. I am slowly growing and learning and I am so grateful you are here to celebrate with me. The ups and the downs. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. 💕 Xx #onwardsandupwards #3000followers #jumpforjoy #thankyou #choosejoy #mountjoycottage

Who loves anenomes? No not that type of anenome Who loves anenomes? No not that type of anenome 🪸, the dahlia type 🏵️ I absolutely love them. I love alot of the other non standard types really, like waterlily and collarette. Mmmm, Yummy 🤤 This type has an outer layer of petals (often reflexed) and a fluffy centre. We are growing alot more of these varieties this year than in the past so we will have a few in the catalogue later this year 🥳 The varieties shown (in order) are: Araluen Beauty June Granite Queen Bee Purex #seacritterdahlias #anenomes #anenomedahlias #australiandahlias #mountjoycottage #dahliatubers
