About

I am Pepy. I live in the Howgill fells, in an unspoilt and less visited valley sandwiched between the Yorkshire Dales and the Lake District.

I started Backyard Blooms in 2018. I began with flower deliveries – bouquets, jam jars – gradually spreading my wings to occasions, and conceptual projects. I also run specialist workshops here in our barn.

I use only material grown here in my garden and foraged from a wide range of local sources. I am inspired by the imperfect wild flowers that grew around me when I was growing up in Argyll on the west coast of Scotland, and where we now live in Cumbria.

 
 
 
 

How about a gift of flowers?

Vouchers are a wonderful gift at any time. Backyard Blooms vouchers can be redeemed throughout the year and can be of any value you choose. They will be emailed to you once payment has been received.

Options:

  • Bouquet of flowers

  • Jam jars of flowers

  • A flower delivery subscription

  • Workshops

  • ‘Tea for two’ flowers - pick flowers from our garden, have tea and cake and let me show you how to prepare and arrange them.

“Pepy, what a lovely surprise! The flowers are exquisite - hardly two alike in the massive bunch”.
