I almost didn’t get any tulips planted this year. I ran out of time and energy to order bulbs. Special thanks to @breadanddahliasflowerfarm for generously sharing these bulbs! And thanks to @everymomentholy for this liturgy.#everymomentholy #tuliptime #aliturgyfortheplantingofflowers #liturgy #hope #bulbs
Endless possibilities—I can never make up my mind! Which is part of why I love what I do. 👩🌾✂️💐#localflowers #slowflowers #seasonalflowers #Flowersubscription #farmerflorist #grownnotflown
Have you ever brought flowers home and then struggled to get them to look how you wanted? Have you wondered whether the problem was your vase or your flowers or maybe even your abilities?

A vase and all the tools you need will be provided, along with a wide variety of late spring’s finest flowers.The class will take place at 6:30 pm on Friday June 28th at the Farmhouse at 5 Loaves Farm (70 W.

Fairy Fest is this Saturday, June 15th at @buffalobotanicalgardens ! Hope to see you there!
If you’ve gotten flowers from me for years, you may notice a change on your bouquet wraps next week. Instead of the generic stamp I ordered from Vistaprint years ago, I finally have my own, personalized logo! It is based off this bouquet I made for my mom last year, which has all of my favorite late-spring flowers. Be prepared to see it on everything I make because I’m kind of obsessed. 😍 #logo #flowerfarminglogo #logodesign #branding #cedarandgrey #flowerfarmlogo #farmerflorist

This week’s favorite flower. 🤩 I’m definitely planting 10 x’s as many for next year.
Most poppies only last 3 days in a vase, but Iceland poppies can last up to 7 days. You have to sear the stems by dipping them in boiling water or holding them over a flame, but other than that they are completely unfussy.

Still swooning a little over this Mother’s Day Bouquet. 🥲 Sometimes it’s hard to let the flowers go out the door. But there’s always something new coming on to console me. Tulips are done but irises, Lily of the valley (my fave!), and ranunculus are coming on strong! Late spring subscriptions start next week and there are just a few spots left!
Daffodil season is coming to an end and I’m not ready. 😟 #daffodils #fancydaffs #specialtydaffodils #localflowers #seasonalflowers
These cold-hardy seedlings have been growing under a double layer of frost cloth all winter. But after the warm days we had in early March, they put out a ton of new grown and I was worried that last week’s cold snap would damage them. I guess I didn’t need to fear! They are flourishing under their not-very protective cover. You might be wondering which flowers can grow through the winter in Buffalo like this? This year I have Larkspur, Corn Cockle, Nigella, Iceland Poppies, Bachelor Buttons, Orlaya, Choclate Lace Flower and Anemones. Most of these I didn’t even plant, I just let them reseed last year! Easiest plants ever, and they will be amazing filler flowers through April, May and June.#cool flowers #hardyannuals #reseeders #overwinteredflowers #frostcloth #zone6b
