If you requested sweet-pea seeds, my friends from MI Academy have you covered. šŸ„° Tom, Sam, and Bradley were in the shop this morning getting the seeds counted, packaged, and labeled. Thanks to their hard work, the seeds are ready to go for tomorrow (Saturday) morning from 9:30- 1 pm. They also helped me package the ranunculus corms for those of you that asked for some. I DO still have a very limited number left, so itā€™s not too late if you havenā€™t called dibs yet. šŸ˜‰
On a personal note, Iā€™m grateful for MI Academy and its staff and students. An organization founded by my friend, Linda Noell, MI Academy (Meaningful Instruction Academy) offers special-needs adults opportunities to learn and perfect basic life skills and to help others in the community. They regularly volunteer around Harlingen, and every other week Iā€™m lucky enough to have them here at the flower farm doing everything from stamping flower sleeves to sowing seed trays to packaging up orders for customers. They bring levity and joy to this often stressful job, and I am always grateful for our time together. ā¤ļø

Flowers to honor the life of Charlene. The first time I ever fainted, it was into her office chair. She was the secretary at my elementary school, and her ever-present maternal cheerfulness was unwavering, even as my twelve-year-old self slipped into that chair, eyes closing as she cradled my bleeding left arm in her hands. She was unfazed by the incident, capably closing the wound with some butterfly bandages, continual reassurance that I was okay, and that gentle smile. She was always welcoming, always warm, always smiling. The world is dimmer today for her absence, but I am grateful that her hope in Christ has been realized in full. What a beautiful legacy of faithfulness she leaves us with. āœļø

We had some really heavy rain come in with the cool front last night. My only concern when I heard it hammering on the roof was the marigolds. Theyā€™re so big and pretty right now, I was worried they might fall over and break. Happily, this morning found them looking perfect, and we were able to send an armload of them and some other fall beauties to for her darling little shop in downtown Harlingen. šŸ’

Throwback to a couple weeks ago when asked me to make centerpieces that were more foliage and texture than flowers and greens. Wild Alamo-vine seedpods were the *perfect* finishing touch for these little birchbark bowls. šŸŒ¾

Per usual I forgot to take good photos, so a parking lot snap with my janky iPhone will have to do! šŸŒæ

Thereā€™s so much going on here at the flower farm, but most of it doesnā€™t show up here on Facebook. I post much more regularly to Instagram, but my updated security settings mean nothing cross-posts here anymore. I will eventually figure out how to fix that, but in the meantime, if youā€™re not following WildAugust on Instagram, hereā€™s the link: ā¬‡ļø

Is it a gift or a burden to notice the little things? To care this much? Blame it on the crush of peak-season busy-ness or the early heat wearing on everyoneā€™s energy levels, but I missed one of these little things in the flower field last week when I told my team to cut down a row of ageratum that was being decimated by caterpillars. ā€œThe season is over; letā€™s just cut them to the ground and be done,ā€ I said. But later that day, when I saw the row reduced to short, naked stalks, I realized what I had done. Left among the piles of withering leaves and stems were scores of fuzzy, rusty-red-and-black striped caterpillars. Metalmark butterflies in the making. I hadnā€™t known that ageratum is a host plant for them, and I felt a sense of sadness settle over me as I watched them wriggle across the now-empty row and over the dying piles of foliage. The caterpillars would die with the plants. Unlessā€¦ Following a morning flower delivery the next day I decided to stop by Grimsellā€™s nursery in Harlingen and try to get my hands on some mistflower, which I already knew to be a host for metalmarks. George pointed me in the direction of the plants, and I felt halfway embarrassed explaining why I needed them. Who cares about a couple hundred caterpillars? He shook his head as we leaned over and collected half a dozen of the most heavily foliaged plants. ā€œSo many people donā€™t notice the little things,ā€ he said. And as he did, I watched a metalmark caterpillar slip off of a leaf and catch itself on the side of the pot. George saw it too and asked, ā€œIsnā€™t it amazing how they find the plants that they need?ā€ It seemed the metalmarks had also found their way to Grimsellā€™s. I thanked George for his kindness and empathy and drove the plants back to the flower farm where I lined them up between the empty ageratum row and the withered stems we had piled up in the walkway against it. I collected as many caterpillars as I could find and dropped them into the new mistflowersā€™ leaves, grateful for the chance to make a wrong thing right and thankful again for the gift and the burden I carry for the little things. Even caterpillars.
