Another productive afternoon on the farm! The landscape fabric is up and in storage for the winter from our main growing space. We also transplanted the Baptisa that we dug up yesterday. And got a few more things in storage!

Another 2,400 tulips are coming this week! So I plan to plant tulips next weekend. We’re still waiting on our peonies to arrive.

Looking for info on how we dig and get our dahlias ready for storage in our farm? Here ya go! I’ll talk more about the method of storage I use when I get to that point.

I’m planning to divide my dahlias this year now instead of in the spring. Either is fine. Typically I divide in March but we’re trying to take things off our plates for this winter/spring!

Yesterday we got the dahlias dug out! I’ll post a video on how we like to dig, how I prep them for storage and more!

Dropped some marigolds off to one of our wonderful flower friends today 😍 I planted these after the 4th of July from seed not knowing if we’d even see them bloom!

The Christmas season seems to be fast approaching this year! I’ll be launching our Holiday Workshops on November 1st and our Holiday Preorder collection shortly after that!

I’m excited to be offering Amaryllis for the first time this year along with our beautiful wreaths and arrangements.

To be honest I’m struggling with our Holiday collection this year. It definitely seems as though people are scaling back on their spending, we have a very large wedding we’re taking on in December and well I have a feeling I’ll be feeling large by the end of the holiday season! 😂

I’d love to know what you are hoping to see this season from us ❤️

Enjoy a few photos from past season for now 😉

We’re planting about 6,000 tulips bulbs this year. But we haven’t planted them yet! I personally think it’s still too warm to stick those expensive bulbs in the ground 🫣 I like to plant our tulips when soil temps are consistently about 50 and we’re out of these crazy 80 degree days.

This weekend we’ll get the tear down of the field finished and likely start digging out dahlias.

Our peony roots will be arriving in the next few weeks! We’ll be planting out about 400 new plants and have roots available for you to purchase!

Peony roots are $20 and available in 4 colors/varieties. Peony roots will be available for local pickup as well as shipping to everywhere else.

Grab one or all the varieties to start your love of peonies! 😍😍 https://ashleykaldenberg.com/collections/all

You can plant peony roots as long as the ground is still workable!

Flower farming isn’t always glamorous 😂 Fall is a ton of work, yesterday we worked on getting all the annuals cut down, first of the tulips sorted, lots of perennials planted and the peonies fertilized.

I’m feeling the burn today from all the work that was done yesterday! 😴

Left for fall:
Too much to list 😂😂😂

Hey locals! We’ve got lisianthus for sale!! I tucked them away in the cooler before the frost this week.

What an absolute dream it’s been working with brides this year. It’s a part of our business I really hope to expand. To have the privilege of bringing a vision to life to a bride is so special!

It won’t be long now until we start to dig our dahlias! This afternoon I’m going through to make sure every plant is labeled before a hard frost comes this week.

You can label your dahlias many different ways. I just use flagging tape and a sharpie for ours.

We’ll dig all our dahlia clumps after a hard freeze. You don’t have to wait for a freeze, but I always have as it’s a true signal for the plant to shutdown.

The to do list of things to do before a frost is also long before digging dahlias 😂

Tonight we got 3 flats of perennial plugs planted out! This is a whole new to me trial experience of fall planting. Fingers crossed they produce good flowers in the spring!

Perennials are a definite investment, but it’s time to think about how much labor I’m putting into the farm each spring planting so many annuals as well 😂

Pssssssssst! If you grew dahlias from us this year make sure you’ve got those babies labeled if you’re wanting to keep track of each variety! It looks like Mr.Frost will be hitting the flowers early next week!

I’ll be talking more about how we dig, divide and store our dahlias while we’re doing it!

Now is the time to clip your peony foliage off and discard of it! Ours was hauled off to be burned.

Our peonies we planted last fall got their trim done today! We’ll fertilize these guys on hopefully a less windy day!

We’ll be planting about another 400 roots here in just a few short weeks. Peonies are a long term investment. And honestly a big investment not only in the land space, and time waiting to cut them, but they’re very expensive too!

A fall sympathy arrangement ❤️

Even though our lisianthus are just finishing out their growing season in the field I’ve ordered our plugs for 2025! Growing flowers at scale is wild. You’re ordering product sometimes a whole season ahead of time.

I’m excited to be more than doubling our lisianthus production next year!! We’ve also supported local and have ordered in a couple more colors in champagne and lavender from our friends at Ogle's Greenhouse

This summer I went from thinking that I wouldn’t be growing Lisianthus again to suddenly the florist demanding more than we could grow of them. 🤣

A long evening in the garage studio last night! 😴😴 These are the two compotes before they have been filled with florals. This is the “greened in” stage! Such beautiful fall colors 😍

It was a heck of a day yesterday! Whoofta but a late night in the garage studio finishing up a BEAUTIFUL wedding! More tomorrow ❤️

It’s a floral party! 😂 we’re cranking out wedding floor arrangements and just harvested a TON of lisianthus! 😍

Wedding ready! A sneak peak at what I’ve been working on in the garage studio! More to come tomorrow! 💍💍

This week we’re saying goodbye to our ranunculus stock blooms 😭 The area will get filled to make room for green beans, pumpkins, sunflowers & zinnias! Here we plant multiple successions of sunflowers and zinnias to keep things FRESH! We also get to plant these with our push planter making things go quick!

Another night working in the garage studio with pretty florals 😍

Wednesday nights are always busy with farmers market prep, but this week we have farmers market, a celebration of life arrangement, a company appreciation picnic and a wedding! So we’re cranking things out each day! ❤️

Tomorrow!!! We’re shipping GORGEOUS ranunculus out! Grab one bunch for $25 or 2 for $45! Shipping in Iowa is $12! 🌸🌸 https://ashleykaldenberg.com/products/shipped-spring-bouquet?variant=45514624139519

Ranunculus have arrived to the party. Thankfully the weather look like it’s going to cool off over the next few days. 🤞🏻 they continue to bloom for a couple more weeks! More to come on these- local Spring Bouquet Club subscribers, you’ll be getting an email for pickup next week for these! 😍😍
