  • Our first seed crop of the season is blooming and I’m so happy with how great it’s doing. This is a very pale lavender selection of sweet rocket that I got from a friend who’s been saving it for many years. This color is really tough to find. I’m so excited to be able to add it to our seed offering next year! #floretseeds #ayearinflowers
  • I recently wrote a little roundup of the newest flower-focused books to hit the market (click the link in my profile to read the full story on the Floret Blog). One of the best in the bunch is "In Bloom" by U.K. writer @clarenolanuk . I had a chance to review it prior to publication and was so impressed, that I shared my praise on the back cover which reads, "Thoughtfully organized and beautifully designed, this lovely book shares space on the shelf with all of my favorite books." In addition to covering everything you need to know about growing and enjoying home grown flowers all year long, the stunning photography and abundance of inspiring photos kept me glued to the pages from beginning to end. This beautiful new book is finally available here in the U.S. and is a must-have addition to your flower library. If you’re a fan of Cut Flower Garden, you will absolutely love this book. Tomorrow is author @clarenolanuk birthday and I thought it’d be fun to celebrate by giving away a copy of her wonderful book here on IG. For a chance to win, post a comment below and tell me what flower you plan to grow or give to others this season. I'll post the winner here at the end of the week. UPDATE: A big congratulations to the winner @marymcdanielphotography Thank you all for entering!
  • Any time I’m in a bookstore or our local library I inevitably find myself in the garden section. Even when exercising great restraint, I can never seem to leave empty handed. After writing Cut Flower Garden and working on subsequent book projects I am all the more appreciative of what it takes to make a great book. A lot of love, sweat and tears are poured into each and every paragraph and every photo taken. Over on the Floret Blog, I recently posted a roundup of the newest flower-focused books to hit the market (click the link in my profile to read the full story) including great titles by @joannagaines @flora.forager @ariellachezardesign @annabellehickson @swallowsanddamsons @clarenolanuk @thestudiobyfleur @theflowerpatchmag I hope it inspires you to expand your flower library!
  • The garden is at that funny in between time right now. The last of the bulb flowers are gone, the fruit trees have bloomed and I’m still waiting on the biennials I planted a little late last fall to arrive (foxgloves, Canterbury bells, sweet Williams) so there’s not much to pick. These Iceland poppies are a mix we’ve been working on for the past two years, removing all of the bright colors and only keeping the softest pastels shades including the most exquisite buttercream. If all goes well we will hopefully have enough seed to offer this autumn! I thought I’d keep my #ayearinflowers post simple this week and just share what I picked for the windowsill above our kitchen sink. The goal of this community-driven project is to highlight what's blooming in gardens across the globe each week. Here’s how you can participate: 1) Take a photo of flowers that are in season in your area, whether it's a handful of flowers from your yard or garden or a bouquet that you made using seasonal blooms. 2) Post your photo here on Instagram and tag it with #AYearInFlowers.⁣ 3) In the caption, be sure to share what flowers are in the picture along with where you're located. Please also note the week of the year. Thanks for playing along! #AYearInFlowers #week20flowers #floretseeds
  • For my #AYearInFlowers bouquet this week, I paired peachy/coral Ranunculus from the La Belle Pastel Mix with Pansy Rococo Frill Mix and Nature Antique Shades, tucked in a few sweet stems of wild Bleeding Hearts, Lilacs, Blueberry flowers, Heuchera Peach Flambé leaves and Aquilegia Double Pleat Blackberry.

  • Nearly every holiday that involves flowers falls on the wrong side of the calendar for local flower growers here in the northern hemisphere. If you're in a warmer location, or have heated greenhouses you might be able to have blooms by Easter, but typically Mother's Day is the first real holiday that growers have a significant harvest to offer. As this special holiday approaches (May 12th) I encourage you to source your flowers as close to home as possible! Over on the Floret Blog, the team and I have put together an awesome gift guide that includes local bouquet and flower subscription options from members of Floret's Farmer-Florist Collective, our online directory which now has more than 1,000 members. From what I gather, it's now the largest local flower directory in the world - and it's FREE to use and join! Our gift guide also features flower-focused gift ideas and flower events and experiences organized by state. If you're looking for local flowers for Mother's Day, I hope this resource helps you connect with a flower grower or floral designer (who sources locally) in your area! Click the link in my bio for the full scoop. I made this bouquet a few years back for Mother's Day and it includes: viburnum, columbine, ranunculus, peonies, honeysuckle, garden roses, beech and tatarian honeysuckle. #growfloret

  • For this weeks #AYearInFlowers bouquet I was inspired by the abundance of beautiful buttercream ranunculus blooming in our hoop house. Isn't the color just so good? Since the daffodils are on their way out I had to use the last few stems before they are gone for another year. This bouquet includes: Ranunculus La Belle Pastel Mix, Narcissus Yazz and Prosecco, Tatarian Honeysuckle, Spirea Snowmound and Honeywort. The goal of this community-driven project is to highlight what's blooming in gardens across the globe each week.
