Bloom staging

Last year we had a great set up for staging the blooms to be readied for the market. They sat in a shady spot and soaked up the fresh water.

This summer we might have to expand our staging area. We are getting closer to spring!

Oddity

Sometimes we get a weird one....

Hum....

But that is OK - all blooms are beautiful!

Like these beautiful pinks.

Spring is coming!

One of our workers...

This little lady is one of our workers....

Hey lady!

We love seeing the lady bugs at work. You go, girl!

Let's hear it for big splashy blooms

Don't you just love a big splashy bloom?

These big yellow daylilies can really take center stage.

In the meantime this bud will become a huge yellow dahlia.

And these lovely ladies will be sunflowers.

If our growing season is going to be anything like last year then it will be fantastic this summer!

Cosmos...two views.

We love cosmos in our bouquets!

It's so terrific when this....

...becomes this.

We are going to have tons of cosmos this year!

Driving Miss Sunflower

Do you know that the blooms ride with me in the front seat of the truck on our way to market? I strap them in for safety...

Riding along to market.

And some of our blooms ready for market.

We have so many!

They are all so beautiful.

With any lucky we'll be planting soon.

Blooms! Blooms! Blooms!

We had some spectacular harvests!

Blooms!

Blooms!

Blooms!

Our growing season is going to be terrific!
