Welcome to Where the Roses Grow

Florals | Candles | Event Styling


Once known as Herbs and Homesteading, this space began as a quiet corner of the internet to share homegrown herbs, garden wanderings, and slow-living rituals. Over the years, it blossomed into something much more—something wild and beautiful and deeply rooted in the language of flowers.

Now lovingly reimagined as Where the Roses Grow, my work continues to be inspired by nature, memory, and romance. I specialise in bespoke florals for events and everyday enchantment—lush garden arrangements, dreamy tablescapes, and seasonal installations that tell a story. Each piece is designed with a poet’s heart and a florist’s hand.

Alongside florals, I craft small-batch, soy wax candles—each one hand-poured in my studio and blended with custom essential oil profiles to evoke landscapes, stories, and nostalgic moments. Whether you’re seeking gentle fragrance, whimsical styling, or meaningful blooms for your next celebration, you’ll find it here.

This is still the same soul-led business you’ve come to know and love—just wrapped in a new name that better reflects the direction I’m growing in. Thank you for being here, and for growing with me.


With love and wildflowers,
Kels
