About Us
Field of Roses is a small flower farm and floral design studio led by farmer/florist mother and daughter duo Zoe and Sue Field.
Nestled in the beautiful Waingake Valley just outside of Gisborne, New Zealand. From a field overlooking rolling hills and the river valley below, we grow an assortment of garden roses, flowering annuals and perennialsโeach lending themselves to wild and romantic designs.
As a mother and daughter team, we work side-by-side (along with our dogs) planting, tending, picking, and designing from Spring through to Autumn.
Our Family
Field of Roses is truly a family affair.
Zoe, the daughter, is the design force behind the business. As trained florist, Zoeโwhen not busy weeding or plantingโis off designing for local weddings, picking orders, and planning out the flower field.
Sueโs expertise is growing. The matriarch of the team she has acquired many years of horticultural knowledge, working on this land for over 37 years together with her husband and Zoe's dad, Roly.
Rolyโs the all-round handy Dad, always helping where he can, whether it's building sheds, irrigating the fields, moving fences, or mowing lawns.
And of course where would we be without our loyal pups, who are never far from our side, whether busily patrolling the field for rabbits or just sleeping the day away in the field, they truly live the life!
Our Farm
We grow a wide range of flowers. Roses being our main crop, with hundreds of garden roses keeping us busy throughout the year and just under an acre of cut flowers.
We love growing all the classicsโSweet Peas, Foxgloves, Dahlias, Zinnias, Nigella, Lupins, Poppies, Clematis, the list goes on. This is truly our passion. No season is ever the same with new varieties being grown and discovered every year.
To say we love flowers would be an understatement.
