Who are you? We are Rebecca Stuart, Marion Parish and Penny Dunn What do you do? We grow our own flowers on Penny’s Organic farm in Cornwall, England. How would you describe your style? Its wild and seasonal, elegant and a little bit rustic. Where do you find the inspiration? The garden really inspires us, with different flowers peaking at different times, and the countryside around us also looks so different at different times. Seasonality it a really big influence, because we field grow nearly all of our flowers. We love Instagram and follow other UK growers such as Miss Pickering, The Blue Carrot, Amanda Taffinder, Pyrus and Jo Flowers. We also love blogs such as Floret Farm, on-line magazine blogs such as Wedding Sparrow, Once Wed and Magnolia Rouge. Trends in fashion and the wedding industry have some impact because we work together with stylists, dress designers, magazines and photographers too, we all take elements of one and other’s ideas in order to work together, and stay creatively engaged. Artists, from Dutch Old Masters to the Modernist St Ives School inspire us, whilst we always try to make our flowers reflect the personality of the people who’ve commissioned us and the place in which they will be displayed.
