Can you believe this is only 5 stems of Plum Perfect!?!? It is my most productive rose on the farm by far. It’s constantly blooming these huge sprays of rich purple blooms. And It loves our southern heat and humidity. These are 5 year old plants and well over my head, so the stems are so long and strong. The only flaw is very light fragrance.l, but I still love her!

Finally finished getting all the dahlias planted and tallied it up! Any guesses on how many I’m growing this year?!?! Hint…it’s the most I’ve ever grown!
Drumroll…..948!!!
That’s so many for my wee bitty farm. It’s a mix of new varieties, my favs, seedlings, and building stock for the Knoxville Dahlia Society Legacy Project. I could have not gotten this done without the help of our amazing KDS members!! And yes, I’m slightly terrified for the fall dig, but so excited for all the blooms!!!

Happy Summer Solstice!!!

Alright y’all big news to share with you now that it is official. Meet the newest member of the Parkridge Petals family… “Poppy” a 1977 Cushman Truckster!!!

I have been wanting one for years and finally found a very nice man who collected them but was selling due to health reasons. Him and his wife were just so precious. My fellow flower friend and I made road trip to pick her up…thank you so much for your help, truck, and trailer!!

Poppy is currently getting restored at Smoky Mountain Rod & Customs (a local business in the neighborhood!!) to bring my vision to life. Can’t wait to watch her transformation and share it with you all!!!

Let’s talk roses…when you purchase roses from me you are getting beautiful, fragrant, organic, field-grown roses. What does this mean?!?!

-They are not the perfect greenhouse roses you get from the commercial vendors. They grow with our weather conditions and have an ebb and flow.

-Many of the varieties I grow are English garden roses so they don’t have a long vase life, but they smell divine. So enjoy their fleeting beauty.

-They are free of pesticides, herbicides, and preservatives (like formaldehyde) that come with imported roses.

-They transport you to another time and place when life was slower.

- This time of year the fireflies love to hide in their petals. So, if you get a hitchhiker in your bouquet, let them live in your garden and brighten up your night!
