Nov 1, but I still have some fav moody flowers to share🖤, and Lisianthus 'Roseanne Deep Brown' is definitely at the top!
The funny thing is that I grew this completely on accident. I ordered 'Roseanne Light Brown' a few years ago, and they accidentally sent 'Deep Brown' instead. Everyone loved her, so she got a permanent spot on the farm.
Funny enough, I have yet to grow 'Light Brown' (though I did snag her for 2023!)

OK, I *might* be biased, but I think that flower people are the kindest people🖤 It was something that was very unexpected to me as a newbie entering into the flower world.
It continues to amaze me and I have so many stories, but this dahlia always reminds me of one particularly kind and talented soul: Shanna evokechancyfloral who just opened the_ever_lea this year (do check out both😍)
It was my first year flower farming. I booked my first-ever wedding and I wanted so badly to knock it out of the park. The bride was so gracious and flexible, but I happened to know she was particularly fond of dark dahlias. She didn't have expectations, but I really wanted to include some in her bridal bouquet.
That particular year we had record days in the 90s and my dahlia collection was not quite the monstrosity it is today😉. The weekend of the wedding, I had exactly ZERO dark dahlias and I was devastated.
I had followed Shanna for a while and loved her work. I knew she grew dahlias, but she did not know me from Adam. I sheepishly reached out to her on this very platform and not only did she get back to me right away, but she also invited me over to her home. She showed me around her stunning garden, giving me her one and only perfect Spartacus bloom, along with some procut red sunflowers.
Spartacus was the star in the bridal bouquet and when I told the bride this story, she told me it was her very-favorite bloom among all of them🥰
Shanna's kindness was my first experience of just how awesome flower people are, and I knew I had to grow Spartacus always and always from that day forward.
And bonus: I'm shocked at how abundantly this variety flowers! It's a must grow in my book🖤
The last of the bulbs and corms from our sale have *finally* left the building earlier this week. It's been snowing here, so I kind of felt like we were Santa's elves packing up the remaining orders❄️🤣 It makes my heart happy they are going to happy homes, and honestly, everyone was so gracious and understanding with the backordered items (flower people are the kindest people).
Now to get our hands in the dirt . . . err snow . . . to plant all of our backordered beauties, like La Belle Epoque here.
We had a helluva time with backordered items this fall, did you?!
Sometimes, you just gotta roll with the punches and pray to the tulip and peony gods that the ground doesn't freeze solid. Fall on a flower farm is intense, but it's especially intense when you're working in the elements🥶 But I dono, sometimes when things are crazy intense, it really makes me feel alive, ya know?
Or am I just crazy? . . . maybe, maybe I am 🤷🏼♀️😜

Happy day of spring! Warmer days and beautiful blooms ahead ☀️
Let me know in the comments if you want a free guide for this arrangement (photos of each ingredient, exact varieties, sources, including vase, backdrop, etc.)👇🏼
The last one was quite popular, so if there's enough interest for this one, I'll make another one🌸!
This arrangement was a few days old, as it was for the guests at Hippler Hill Retreat to enjoy. There were a few things I would have fixed/changed, but I had a plane to catch, so I snapped a few pics and called it good.
I know it's difficult to take the time to photograph your work, but I believe it's *always* worth it. Not only can you share it, but you also can learn a lot about what you'd do differently by seeing it through the camera lens.

For Rachel 💕
I had to pick these flowers from my garden early this morning as June has dialled up the heat here. Roses are continuing to flower across the garden but only a few Love-in-a-mist (Nigella damascena) remain and not long before I’ll see the last of the Sweet Peas.
I’ve included the wild Common Centaury (Centaurium erythraea) and Wild Carrots (Daucus carota) which love the hot weather. Two other native Mediterranean plants which I love in the garden are the Blue throatwort - although it’s purple 💜 - (Trachelium caeruleum) and the amazing Badassi 😉(Lotus dorycnium formerly Dorycnium pentaphyllum).The latter just grows and grows although I rarely water it (maybe once a month in the summer).
Also included are Hibiscus, Cornflowers, Scabiosa atropurpurea ‘Burgundy beau’ and ‘ Summer fruits’ xx
Throwback to some of my favorite floral moments of 2022 🌸

Much needed spring citrus tones to further radiate the sunshine and uplift hurting hearts 🤍 praying with our Fountain of Life family 🙏🏻 there’s beauty beyond the ashes.
Can I tell you a secret? I've become *totally* obsessed with garden roses.
Like I just can't stop thinking: I've been missing out on these for my whole life?!
I want to bury my face in them all day . . . maybe take a break for a few sips of champagne, bc they make me feel fancy like that🥂
Please, please tell me your favorite rose varieties, so I can add more👇🏼😬
We're in Z4 so it certainly limits our options, but I am going to dedicate more space in the high tunnel to roses to see if I can squeeze some more zone outa them😅
I have zero idea if this will work, but I simply must try!
For example, this is David Austin Wollerton Old Hall, which is technically rated for Z5. Crossing my fingers this beaut makes it, as I fear I can no longer live without it🤣

#MyMothersFavouriteBooks
I was tagged by the lovely bookish_ian who has recently lost his mother Wendy, to share a stack of books that my Mum loves. For every stack posted, he will donate $1 to the Garvan Institue of Medical Research in honour of Wendy
These are books or authors that I know my Mum loves or that are inextricably linked with her in my mind
💫Jane Eyre ~ we both share a love of this book and I remember several childhood Sundays when we watched the 1943 black and white film with Orson Welles
💫The Count of Monte Cristo ~ was my bedtime book for MONTHS which she doggedly preserved with because she loved this adventure story too
💫Josephine Tey ~ The Daughter of Time is one of her favourite books and she recently started a reread of it. The story of Richard III also reminds me of Mum as we visited Leicester together and his grave in Leicester Cathedral
💫Susan Hill ~ I saw The Woman in Black at the theatre with her when I must have been about ten and I was absolutely terrified
💫Agatha Christie ~ The theme tunes of David Suchet’s Hercule Poirot and Joan Hickson’s Miss Marple will forever remind me of both of my parents. They still rewatch both series now
💫Elizabeth Gaskell ~ Her particular favourite is North and South, but we both went to see Gaskell’s Manchester home together one hot June day
I’m so sorry for your loss Ian and thank you for encouraging me to think about how grateful I am to my Mum for my love of books. If I’ve tagged you or not, please do join in with this beautiful bookish challenge💫
Wonky stems and the cherry tomatoes get me every time, HBU?

Compelled by spring (and garden finds) 🌼
My kinda shopping spree😉, how about you?
Matt: Are you ordering more plants?
Me: No, I'm ordering more goodness to plant back into the world🤩🤣
My mind's eye of the checkout cart every time I order seeds, tubers, bulbs, or plants😬 #sheinthegarden

I was pulling together some images for an upcoming project and I came across this image of the queen from last year. And so here we are. I hope she reminds you to go take pictures of your gardens. It's always worth it!
I'm of the opinion that every garden should have at least one cafe au lait, you?!
