Calla lilies: my latest floral obsession. Sure, I get it—white callas can have that throwback 90s vibe (and hey, no shade if you love that). But for me, these beauties have had a major glow-up this past wedding season. They’ve become my go-to for their strength, reliability, and ability to shout your chosen color from the rooftops.

Some florists complain about callas browning and being finicky to touch, but here’s the tea: that’s the imports talking. Callas left out of water for weeks in transit? Yeah, they’re going to struggle. Locally grown callas, though? They’re built like diamonds—resilient, bold, and ready for anything I throw at them. I can rough them up, bend them, tuck them into the trickiest spots, and they don’t miss a beat.

What can I say? Calla lilies are having their moment, and I’m here for it. Are you?

A La Carte personals in combo with DIY buckets for centerpieces! Who could ask for anything better?!

Not a fan of white? Neither am I, most of the time. But late spring florals and their textures can work some magic—proving that color doesn’t have to steal the show. Layers of green, creamy blooms, and intricate details come together for an effortlessly elegant look. White is also a perfect fit for our a la carte offerings—simple, timeless, and anything but boring.

Okay, real talk—this floral install at Rust Manor? One of my all-time favorites. There’s just something magical about taking an already stunning space and dressing it up to feel like the couple’s love story came alive. That porch is pure history and charm, and those bold, cascading blooms brought it all together. The mix of color, texture, and a touch of wildness felt like the perfect match for this dreamy venue. I could stand here all day (but don’t worry, I won’t). Would you say ‘I do’ under this beauty?

Every other week, she’d find a fresh bunch of tulips waiting for her—a surprise that keeps on giving through the darkest days of winter. That’s exactly what one husband had in mind when he gifted his wife a Winter Tulip Share for the holidays. Each bunch, a reminder of his love, brought a little extra warmth to her chilly mornings and a smile to her face that lasted for days.

Our Winter Tulip Shares make the best holiday gift for anyone who could use a little extra joy this season. With five bunches of freshly grown tulips, picked up or delivered every other week, it’s the gift that doesn’t end after the unwrapping. Perfect for your partner, your best friend, or even as a treat for yourself (because who says you don’t deserve it?). Locally grown and full of life, these tulips are a beautiful way to light up the winter and the hearts of those you love.

Today is the last day to order for all you last minute shoppers!

When you grow red callas for Christmas but they end up being burgundy. Plus, the burgundy makes your red tulips look pink.

What do you think? Does it work?

12/18/2024

He wasn’t exactly the ‘plan ahead’ type—birthdays, anniversaries, even Christmas had a way of sneaking up on him. But not this year. This year, he’s got The Fertile Burb’s Got Your Back (GYB) Subscription on his side.

Here’s how it works: you pick four important dates (think holidays, anniversaries, your mom’s birthday, or even a ‘just because’ day) and let us handle the rest. Each subscription includes four stunning, locally grown bouquets—available in two sizes—and delivered right on time with a personal note from you.

One for the holidays, one for Valentine’s Day, one for Mother’s Day, and one for your anniversary? Done. We even text you before each date to check on delivery or pick-up details, so you’re always in the know.

Because life gets busy, but making someone feel loved? That should be the easiest part of your day.

Early Spring Teaser….

March is where deep, moody tones get their time to shine. These designs pull together the earliest spring blooms—like velvety anemones and lush ranunculus—with the textured drama of late-season dried elements. And can we take a moment for how beautifully silver accents elevate these rich hues? Moody, bold, and perfectly seasonal, this is what early spring looks like when it’s done just right.

There’s something about a holiday centerpiece that makes everything feel a little more special. The soft glow of candles, fresh tulips tucked between wintry greens—it’s like the table sets itself.

Whether it’s a big family feast or just a cozy dinner at home, flowers have a way of making any gathering feel like a celebration. I love pulling together textures and colors that bring warmth to these colder days. What’s your favorite holiday tradition at the table?

Today’s the final day to grab locally grown flowers for the holidays!

One dress for the vows, another for the party—because why not? This bride’s look went from dreamy ruffles to flirty feathers, and we’re here for every second of it.

And let’s talk about this bouquet—it didn’t miss a beat, perfectly complementing both styles with vibrant blooms and all the texture. Florals like this prove they’re more than an accessory—they’re the finishing touch that ties it all together.

From elegant to playful, this day was full of style, charm, and so many beautiful details.

Anyone else feel like the freezing temps are putting a serious dent in their daily productivity? My coffee intake is at an all-time high, and I’m honestly considering a permanent blanket cape situation. But hey, while I’ve been battling the chill, the holiday shop is still warming things up! The BOGO sale may be over (and wow, did you all show up for that), but there’s still plenty of festive goodness in the shop.

Whether you’re in need of a lush holiday centerpiece packed with freshly grown tulips and wintery bits or looking for that perfect gift for the locally grown flower lover in your life, I’ve got you covered. So bundle up, grab your favorite warm drink, and snag some holiday cheer before it’s gone—because these flowers are here to spread joy, even if the temps are icy!

It’s the last day for our Buy One, Get One 50% Off sale, and I’ve been so caught up sharing tulip shares and holiday arrangements that I didn’t even tell you about my favorite gift option: the Got Your Back (GYB) Subscription.

This one’s for all the last-minute gift-givers (you know who you are!). With a GYB subscription, you can pre-plan four bouquets throughout the year for those special moments—Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, anniversaries, or even just because. And the best part? You can set it, forget it, and still look like the most thoughtful person around.

And here’s the thing: with BOGO, today’s your chance to:
🎁 Gift a GYB subscription to someone special, and snag a holiday arrangement for your festive table.
🌷 Treat someone to the magic of flowers all year and grab a winter tulip share for yourself (because, honestly, you deserve it).

Everything is mix and match and 100% locally grown—but it all ends tonight at midnight. Don’t let this be the deal that got away!

Holiday Gifts in October? Yes, Please! Let’s talk holiday gift-giving—because who wouldn’t want to cross that off their list in October? Our Blooms in the Burbs flower shares aren’t just another present—they’re the gift that keeps giving, bouquet after bouquet. One of our share members even uses her share to ‘share,’ gifting stems to friends, family, or even as a quick pick-me-up for herself. It’s the kind of gift that says, ‘I thought of you,’ again and again. Treat yourself or a loved one to something truly special this holiday season—link in bio. #GiftGiving #FlowerCSA #HolidayShopping #bloomsintheburbs

As the sun starts to set on another summer, I’m reminiscing about all the laughter, pool days, and vibrant blooms that filled these warm months. It’s been a whirlwind of flower magic, family vacations, and lazy afternoons with friends—each day a new chapter in our sunny saga. Now, it’s time to swap out the swimsuits for work boots as we dive into a fall filled with weddings, colorful blooms, and the ever-popular Blooms in the Burbs flower shares. Exciting things are on the horizon, and I can’t wait to see what the new season holds. Here’s to all the summer memories and the beautiful fall adventures ahead! #SummerDiaries #FloralMagic #GardenLife #FamilyTime #BloomsInTheBurbs #FallWeddings #SeasonalBeauty

Happy #americangrownflowersweek! This week along side celebrating America’s freedom we celebrate the mesmerizing world of American grown flowers. American-grown flowers have a rich history rooted in tradition, sustainability, and beauty. From the early colonial gardens to today’s vibrant flower farms, U.S. flower growers have embraced innovation and environmental stewardship. The movement towards locally grown flowers gained momentum during the 1960s and has flourished ever since, emphasizing seasonal varieties and eco-friendly practices. Today, American flowers stand as a testament to quality and care, supporting local economies and providing fresh, fragrant blooms that reflect the diverse landscapes of our nation. Celebrate the legacy of American-grown flowers by choosing local and sustainable blooms!

Ready for a cozy, creative gathering that’s a bit different from the usual? Let’s mix the aromatic world of pour-over coffee with the vibrant touch of floral arranging! We’re teaming up with Twelve Twenty Coffee for a laid-back evening where you can unwind and get your hands dirty (in the best way). Dive into flower arranging with us as we play around with modern compote designs, adding a splash of fun with terrazzo flair. You’ll learn all about sustainable practices that not only make your arrangements stunning but also kind to our planet. Then, shift gears to coffee. Ever heard of the ‘coffee bloom’? It’s that beautiful moment when hot water first meets the coffee grounds, and we’ll show you how to perfect this art to make your morning cup something truly special. We’ll have delicious bites from Sweet San Isidro to munch on as you craft and brew, creating a perfect blend of tastes and scents. And don’t worry about leaving empty-handed. You’ll take home your floral masterpiece to brighten your space and a can of Twelve Twenty’s Temperance Blend coffee—imagine waking up to the notes of chocolate and berry jam! Thinking of a post-Mother’s Day treat? This could be a wonderful belated celebration. Bring your mom, or anyone else special, and make memories that’ll last much longer than the blooms.

Valentines Tulips

Come say 👋🏽 and grab some VDay Tulips! @eatlocofarmersmarkets #oneloudounfarmersmarket @freshfarmva #oaktonfarmersmarket

Tulips go through so many transitions from their tight bud, opening, showcasing themselves fully open, then slowly dying. This is the same icoon from a few days ago. This tulip has been in a vase for 9 days which is fantastic vase life especially for a large double. I still think she’s a keeper in this state. The dramatic colors are so romantic and dreamy.

Poses & Posies bids adieu tonight! Embrace the wellness journey with a Vint Hill Yoga 5-class package paired with a #BloomsintheBurbs 5 bi-weekly tulip shares, all at a delightful 10% off! 🧘‍♀️ Vint Hill Yoga members, the tulip joy is for you too – snag the 5 bi-weekly tulip share at the same discount.
