One of my favorite parts of our garage studio remo One of my favorite parts of our garage studio remodel has been all the natural light the space has now that we've added a patio door + more modern style garage door with window panels down the entire right side. The simple poplar countertops @mfrankewicz made for me are pretty great too. These things make photographing my flowers before they leave the shop a dream come true. Today's birthday delivery includes some of the late August garden's finest. Hydrangea 'Limelight' and 'Tardiva', Dahlias 'Pipsqueak', 'Mystique' and 'Bristol Peach', Lisianthus 'Coreli Light Pink' and 'Little Summer Orange', Zinnia 'Zinderella Lilac' and imported roses and ranunculus.
This weekend was @badgerstatedahliasociety's 75th This weekend was @badgerstatedahliasociety's 75th Annual Dahlia Show! Fun non-related fact: I was in 4-H as a teen. We didn't live on a farm, and I didn't show animals, but I had a love for arts & crafts and all things nature related. So, I made quilts and dried flowers from my mom's garden to make potpourri and showed my various pieces of art at the County Fair. Well, this weekend brought me right back to those days of blue and red ribbons. I couldn't be prouder to say that this beauty won 'Best of Show' in the arrangement category! 🏆 The theme for this section was "Color Harmony" and you had to incorporate fabric. This scarf has been a favorite for years and the fruit punch hues were plentiful in the dahlia patch, so it seemed like a good fit. I can't say enough about what a great organization BSDS is. If you love dahlias as much as I do and are in Wisconsin, you should consider joining. The group is full of so many knowledgeable growers. I learned so much from the judges about what makes a good show dahlia, and I'm really looking forward to next year's show!
Early morning birthday delivery for K. I eluded t Early morning birthday delivery for K. I eluded to my rough month yesterday and received an outpouring of messages to make sure everything was ok. For those of you who follow my business page but don't know me personally, we've suffered some major loss over the past month. If you've talked with me, it's highly likely you've heard the story of how we came to live in our home. The universe aligned, put me in the right place at the right time and I met our angel Sue. I stopped to ask if I could buy some hydrangea from the bushes in her yard and she asked if I wanted to buy the house. It was meant to be, and she became a dear friend who changed our lives. A couple weeks ago we lost Sue to a heart attack. This week we lost her cat Sam (who became ours when we bought the house 4 years ago) to advanced heart failure. While my heart is broken 💔 it brings comfort to be able to walk her gardens and clip blooms she planted to share with others to celebrate happy days. As I walked the yard and cut hydrangea from the bushes that started this whole journey this morning, I smiled through the tears.
It's been a really rough month on the personal fro It's been a really rough month on the personal front, but the first dahlia blooms are bringing me some much needed joy. Seen here: 'Mystique' dahlia
