From November archives. Today has been ☁️overcast and not over 82* yet and I’m SO HAPPY. Planting out some late and hopeful timed zinnias that should help my remaining fall events sparkle just a little extra like this bouquet^^ early frost please stay away 🤞

The beauty of having my own plants is not caring that they have powdery mildew that is thick as cheese on the lower leaves 🤪and harvesting just a day or two before the event and using them in their spotted mottled late season disease (call it texture ✨) glory because it’s all a part of the beautiful story of seasonality that is my main goal with my floral artistry.

I’ve let my farming fall to the wayside very drastically these last two years and it feels good to be (slowly…surviving sleeping 2 hours at a time cuz Maeve is teething and hasn’t even slept more than 4 hours more than a few times in 9 mos 😴) crawling around popping seedlings into their holes and hoping the groundhog stays away. Farming is not easy but it certainly is ancestral and healing in all sorts of ways. Garden chores are truly the only way I can trick myself into a real workout at the moment too hahah.

Part2️⃣ captures of this lovely day. Hauling these logs 🪵 from the farm to the tight parking lot of this downtown venue was not my favorite detail but my hubby is quite adept at driving a trailer around thankfully hahah. (I promised him I’d not sell this idea to a client again any time soon soo don’t ask 🤣) The es**rt display we made with them was just so fun. Aubrie wanted smoky n**e and purple tones and lots of moody accents perfect for fall. October doesn’t have to be all 🎃

For Courtney a few Octobers ago. A little buttered peach take on fall color instead of the usual pumpkin spice.

Anyone else see the sneaky tiny tiny signs of fall creeping in? Joe pye w**d about to flower on every unmowed bank. Some dogwood leaves heading to the pink peachy thing they do that I adore. Spiders making more webs every night (including the massively creepy and huge invasive Joro spiders we never saw until last summer and now I see them ALL over aghh).

Today is my birthday and it’s been almost two months since I married Sam in our front yard with all Carolinas-grown flowers (plus just a few bundles of my favorite roses flown in from ) This whole day felt like one hour and I can’t wait to see the final gallery from to remind me of the fun that is condensed into an over too fast sparkling wine soaked blur in my brain. Here’s some of my faves from the previews.

Maeve’s birthday gift to me was the worst night of sleep we have had since the very early newborn weeks so I’m gonna go double steep my oolong and go out for lunch (baby gets too grouchy for nursing and snoozing on my body by 6 PM to go to dinner anymore lol) and hopefully I will get to put away the pile of clean laundry later??- party on right?!😅🤣 I’m too close to 40 to drink more than one glass of anything without suffering (is it my age or my thyroid issues??) so “party” means very different things at this stage in life lol!

Squealing over the preview images from from Addie & Tyler’s wedding last month. Shoutout to mother of the bride Meg for being my main contact for planning and an utter delight to correspond with for months.

Fun story- at first I thought for sure they’d never hire me because I was supposed to have a consult/welcome call with Meg on a Tuesday. Delivered my last wedding of 2023 Saturday 11/18. Then the next morning my waters broke with a gush and I texted (in this order) 1-our midwife 2- our birth photog/friend for the last decade and unofficial doula .m.walters 3- Meg to tell her that her joking email that past Friday “Don’t have that baby before Tuesday!” was now a reality and she must have cursed me into giving birth nearly a month “early” 🤣

So then I had a baby and was eternally grateful for the very patient 6-8 (?) weeks Meg waited to get any shred of a contract from me to make it official. The trust they had in me despite very slow admin while I navigated new motherhood all winter was so kind and loving and rare in this world of “gratify me instantly now flower person!” that a lot of price shopping potential clients bring to the table.

The lovely bride Addie really truly cared that her flowers be as local & sustainable as possible so I lavished the best of late June crops on them gathered from over 6 NC & SC farms on them and here is a peek at the results! Can’t wait to see more from the masterful and was so happy it all worked out so well despite my little babe’s hilarious timing.

From the archives: late May wildflower blues for Kayla. Probably the last time I had a significant portion I cut from my own humble 🌼 farming efforts. Getting babies 🌱 in the ground the last few weeks and so excited to have a cutting garden again.

Sassy little ditty I made in October 2019 before ikebana-inspired was trending all over the place…made with exclusively bits snipped from the garden and some cooler stored wedding leftovers that were weeks old- like the Honey Dijon rose (California shipped) with visible decay -dropping her petals as I made this.

After the burnout of 2020 stress bomb and a 2021 season insanely busy with postponements I mostly spent 2022 just coasting and surviving, lost a dear cat friend and just gave so many less F’s overall once that grief hit. 2023 was spent pregnant and sleepy and now I’m just coasting and surviving the postpartum haze.

Goal for 2024: keep exclusively breastfeeding no matter how hard it is AND grow some damn flowers again and just PLAY more.

This arrangement was created purely for the sake of creation and I feel like it was maybe the last time I allowed myself to do this in the studio. Gardening begets more pure creative urges than shopping for blooms I have to drive and pickup or FedEx to me and I miss the medicine of walking the beds clipping here and there and getting excited about what I discover. So hoping Maeve always sleeps when I baby wear and I can get some garden chores done without her protesting. 💛🙃 Hurry up spring!!!

15/01/2024

APRIL 29, 2023. Every year I gush about the last week of April when typically (weather pending!) I can source nearly 100% locally grown and it is ALL of the most supremely delicate and magical of spring blooms that detest our climate and such a fleeting moment of seasonal bounty. 😭😭😭

Madeleine & Tyler’s punchy coral infused color palette was just perfection and besides a bit of smilax 💯 percent locally sourced. sweet peas broke my heart again and again that entire week long with their fragrance and butterfly elegance, their season is the most fleeting of all and I couldn’t stop sniffing them and sighing.

Lovely photography by the equally lovely at

30/12/2023

Scrolling my photos for literally hours today during more rather endless babe nursing sessions and dredged up lots of older content that is making me realize how much I get to play with color in my life (I really do prefer to spell it COLOUR💛) and I get to call it my career. What a joy.

I’m nearly full for 2024 events but may be willing to sneak your date in the already booked months if you choose linens/wardrobe in a weirdo chartreuse/mustard tinged green (like my shirt here) to accompany this soft sweet floral palette. Anyone know if a taper candle exists in this color too??

14/12/2023

Some ✨pure romance✨for the feed. The film shots by killing me softly. Everything about this late September wedding was a delight to design.

23/11/2023

Thankful beyond words for this little butter bean who gave me the home birth of my DAMN DREAMS Sunday. .m.walters photographed my last hours pregnant as I panic watered plants I may neglect for months & clipped some mums for the hallway vase. She then spooned me when I asked her to on the couch & acted as my doula with a sit on the toilet backwards to speed things up tip. She communicated with our wonderful midwife who made it with less than 20 minutes to spare until I roared this little doll out of my pelvis in the hastily shallowly filled tub in our dining room. Still can’t believe how fast it went & how my body just took over. How “coached pushing” is even remotely a thing is laughable to me now. What a WILD RIDE. Women are incredible.

In case you missed it! Maeve Margaret made her appearance earlier than expected but perfectly on her timing. 7 pounds even. She was supposed to be a Sag (“due date” 12/11) but she really wanted to be a Scorpio I suppose- swipe for her full chart astrology nerd friends ✨

So thankful for her daddy Sam’s devotion to us in this hazy dreamy postpartum, I’ve never loved him more as the woodstove is lit, second pot of bone broth this week from chickens he raised right here is bubbling gently, laundry is staying done and I think she might get more skin to skin on his chest during the day than mine while I try to sleep or get this engorgement to calm down. Mullein the cat isn’t too mad about her either thankfully.

It was a busy third trimester for me flowering events (I 100% procrastinated on some final baby prep projects thinking I had more time bc my biz kept me busy til the last damn day here) and I’m SO thankful for all my helpers- too sleepy to tag everyone- you all know who you are!

So thankful I snuck in a last baby-free date night concert November 1 and got to see two of my absolute faves: Tennis and .evian play a great set. Which I have to mention bc the song on this post is the first thing I’ve hummed to soothe this little baby as we wrestle through the early nursing days fussing- thanks .evian for the lullaby 😆 I know she remembers a lot of your songs from in utero this summer. 💛

Throwing it back to October 2019. One of my ultimate favorite fall palettes. Ashton’s color ideas had me jazzed for months and her bouquet still reigns in my top 5 of bouquets I’ve made.

Fall color with a more subtle feminine tinge than full on rusty pumpkin spicy. I’m also just such a dang sucker for a pop of chocolate cosmos black detailing and a blue accent to warm tones…

Gearing up for a really fun design this week for our client Molly and like Ashton she is a creative entrepreneur herself and it’s always my favorite to make flowers for people who have a great eye for design (whether graphic or interior/etc!) The satisfaction of delivering the final product after months of collaborating over the tiniest details with people who can get nerdy about color and form. ✨

PART II: Molly & Hunter THE TABLESCAPE EDIT

Y’all. Working with to curate these tables was maybe my favorite thing ever.

Caitlin and her team brought in the *perfect* mix of linens, mismatched vintage stoneware plates (literally all of us working to setup this event were just cooing over our favorite of the many unique rented plates) etched smoky glassware and perfectly sized heavy weight table numbers (giant or wimpy wind-toppling table numbers for outdoor setups make me so mad y’all- stop blocking half the floral with giant cards and making me use up my u-glu dashes to try and keep your stupid paper signs on the tables🤣).

Seeking a vintage-leaning eclectic picnic vibe we opted for my speckled ceramic bud vases and a mix of compotes in white. Clean pleated glass for some lower flames to go with the massive haul of tall tapers that looked so happy ✨as you approached the tables from a distance.

I had to borrow 20-something brass sticks from two other flower friends to go with my stash of 32 to make sure every table got at least 4 of this set of mixed shades that really made everything just POP.

Don’t be scared to mix a riot of color for your wedding. Please don’t just do a bland white linen because you let me use some color in your flowers and you’re scared to layer tones/textures. I promise I’ll always make it look classy and not garish or chaotic- swipe above to see the proof. 😋

Texture texture texture. My jam. These images are from a late April wedding but my lord I’m ready for fall…and of course we all assume rusty orange is autumnal timing so here’s some inspo for ya…Really hoping summer doesn’t extend its sweaty arms too close to October during this fall wedding season.

Any tiny motivation I had to do some gardening in my 2nd trimester has melted. About to go work (in the shade!) on some more tidying projects and take breaks to sit in the creek in my sports bra & bike shorts bc it’s not worth putting on more clothing and I’m already wet with sweat hahah 😭🔥 Hope you guys are adding electrolytes/salt to your water bc PHEW it’s needed.

APRIL 29, 2023 ✨✨✨

Masterfully captured by the one & only a photographer who is so good she doesn’t even need a second shooter yet manages to get more amazing thoughtful details of your wedding day than the majority of photogs who do have assistance.

The sweetest peachy coral feminine pinks and ALL LOCAL sourcing for this late April day with for Madeleine & Tyler. Maddy’s beaming smile in this gallery had me smiling so hard. 🤗

Sweet peas, poppies, ranunculus and all the best of late April in our climate for these cuties. It’s tough to source only local for most events and achieve something so delicate & ruffled so this day was a rare treat when the peonies brought the focal-bloom fluff and I didn’t even need to use any shipped roses because ranunculus wasn’t burnt out from our heat yet.

I always say get married in late April here (Upstate SC) folks, it’s the literal best and my favorite few weeks of the whole dang year. 🥲

Missing spring today…about to go jump in the river to lower my core temp before I gather the fortitude to deep clean my terrifyingly dusty vase/hard goods storage rooms in our 100 year old hay barn. Hoping I don’t uncover too many rodent hiding spots in the darkest corners and probably need to do a little stories sale or donate some stuff because this chore is going on 6 years overdue. Eek. Stay cool & hydrated folks- especially you farmers. Phew.🥴

What a JOY to flower this lush photo-op for a quick turn-around surprise proposal. Hank reached out the first week of May- a little stressed as other floral studios had already turned him away (Memorial Day weekend is a busy week for weddings most years!) and I was excited as I only had a drop-off style Sunday booking.

When he said his lady’s favorite colors were lilac-purples to go with blues and yellow and the look he wanted was heavy wildflower vibes I was even happier to accommodate this order. I was able to source all local beauties (peep the INCREDIBLE monster delphinium from ) for this garden install magic.

I just LOVE a good surprise. He secretly arranged for a crew of their closest family and friends to come up for the weekend and they sneakily cruised up by boat on Keowee after he got down on one knee before they all partied for the weekend at his grandfather’s home in the Cliffs.

My placement of the arbor accidentally framed the view of their family home across the lake too hah!

It all happened to be at the Cliffs at Keowee Vineyards a mere 6 minute drive from my house (if you’ve freelanced for me you know it is usually a minimum of 30 miles *one way* to get the goods hauled to an event haha) so yet another layer of joy for me.

Thanks Hank for including me in your thoughtful surprises for your sweet Joelle! If y’all decide to not get married all the way down in Florida after all- call meee 😉😝 I am not a great travel florist- too much of a home body and like having my plants nearby to clip extras hahah.

I LOVE SPRING MOST OF ALL😭 Busy soaking up the freshness of all the furious upward growth and hanging onto every low humidity breeze of the magical time known as April. Locally grown pretty for Michelle & Mark one year ago.

Filling the studio with only local blooms this week and hoping I always have a late April wedding booked because it’s truly the best (as long as we don’t get any freaky timed frosts!). ✨

24/04/2023

Coming up on one year since these babes had their celebration (look at Denver being such a good boy! ☺️🦮) Alissa & Nick were my longest delayed COVID postponement and it was such a joy & relief to finally make this day happen. Modern bohemian tinged elegance in a rusty toffee for springtime palette. ✨

27/03/2023

Still limping from the hustle bustle of our first wedding of 2023 but giddy at these sneak peeks from that are just stunning. Classically elegant whites and green with a pop of blue for Lauren & Herb Saturday.

So glad I was able to zip tie this very lightweight arch to iron railings perfectly spaced right behind the uprights as the wind gusts were literal insanity & my anxiety was chirping for hours until we made it through the ceremony and nothing fell over, didn’t even lose a stem hah. Woohoo!

It’s going to be a busy and beautiful spring and I can’t wait to share more. Congrats to Lauren & Herb. Thank you for trusting me & to Lauren for saying “everything was glorious yesterday” 🥲🤩🙏

JULY 2022. Sarah & Thomas got hitched at and it was just the sweetest (look at their smiles in this photos I just 🥲!)

We had to rain plan swap the ceremony spot- just to have the skies open to glowing sun minutes after I’d finished setting up and guests were due to arrive. Better safe than soggy/lightning struck I suppose hahah.

Oregon grown garden roses and everything else local including my best ever didiscus plants that I sowed in February specifically hoping to add their periwinkle sparkle to this event. Sarah is an avid gardener herself and it was such a joy to share my pretties with someone who truly appreciates horticulture. Also- favorite bridal hair flowers ever. I started making little wired sections of blooms (over a comb or half crown style) and I just adore how delicate the result is. That veil shot 🤩 photographed this delightful wedding. So excited to sow seeds and get cranking so I can keep making more homegrown magic for my clients this year in my shiny & refreshed studio! 💛

24/02/2023

Can one be TOO obsessed with the details? The tinier and easier to miss the better. Sowing seeds of a favorite crop pictured here…can you guess which flower?

This weather sure is a mindf*ck making me feel like I should just go direct sow some zinnias already (hint: technically not safe to do so for at least another 6 weeks! Do NOT plant your tomatoes outside before mid-late April folks 🤣😨).

Every year I grow flowers the weather/temp swells just get wackier and we just have to try and hang on for the ride. Taking bets on how late of a surprise deep freeze we will get after this downright balmy February…

19/02/2023

Classic neutrals with a pop of blue is very popular in my inbox this booking season. This stunner pictured (thanks to )was from last spring with for Kaylee & Roddey. A windy sun-drenched warm April 1st. I love blue flowers so much probably because they are truly a rarity in the flower world (bc lavender purple tones are NOT the same thing lol- looking at you lying wholesalers and seed catalogs 🤣). I’d love them even more if they weren’t so hard to source in quantity but then they wouldn’t be as precious right? Getting SO EXCITED for spring. Feeling my energy rise in spurts as I tackle months or years-old messy piles around the farm. Crawling out of my physical and mental winter cave slowly but surely. I love being a seasonal creature so much. (New flash we are all animals who are supposed to live with the cycles of the earth hah). Anyone else feeling a big shift in energy too? 🫧

31/01/2023

VALENTINES DAY: for the first year ever since starting my floral biz I’m gonna sell y’all some fresh cuts for the old Vday! Deets dropping soon…but HINTS- the offerings will involve 🍰 🥧and 100% AMERICAN GROWN blooms shipped straight to me from the mostly Cali-based growers.

Why does that matter? Because it means the flowers are days or even a week+ FRESHER when they get to you. Skipping the wholesaler means less “middle men” so the quality will be outstanding.

Bouquets will potentially (I went with wildcard “farmers choice” boxes🥳 can’t wait to see the colors…) include: ranunculus, anemones, hellebore, delphinium and more PREMIUM long-lasting beauties. NO tight red fungicide dipped hybrid roses or dyed carnations. I’m still not a huge fan of the biggest flower holiday being smack in the middle of late winter but I’m honestly missing the sight of buckets stuffed full of my polka dot tissue and sharing high-end magical flowers with people beyond my wedding clients. Let’s pray it’s not 12* outside that week of prep time or I may have to move my studio into the dining room like the old days (groan). 😆

I’m guessing your bouquets will last at least two weeks in the vase if not longer if you keep that water fresh💦 Again- more details COMING SOON.

Don’t try to place any orders in my DMs-thank you 🤪😘 Pictured: some Mother’s day bunches from the archives- 100% harvested from my farming efforts and largely my fave ranunculus- “Porcelaine”.

Funky blooms pictured: straight out of my May 2020 gardens. I’ve always been a little embarrassed by what my studio setup is so you’ll rarely see more than a corner like this image on my feed. You florists with your gorgeous airy spaces make me seethe with envy (but then I recall how much I likely save NOT paying commercial rent haha).

It’s just a concrete floor with a 10 ft high shed over it that was built primarily to house Sam’s very tall walk-in freezer and my 12x10 foot walk-in cool-bot cooler. As soon as we finished constructing it (4 years ago?) I wished instantly that I had asked for more square footage but I didn’t want to be too picky since Sam and his Dad were doing so much already.

After a season of dealing with rain puddling onto my tables and leaves blowing everywhere I added some white tarps around the open design/processing area about 3 years ago and they certainly help. I’ve grown to love the light pouring in and breezes, cat visits and being a creature that spends about only half her time in conditioned air (bedtime unless camping lol).

When I spend entire office days in A/C while it’s over 85 degrees outside I actually hate it and feel kinda sickly. Sweating buckets when the days are long working “Al fresco” whether gardening or designing has become something I treasure, even during bad heat waves because then I just work in minimal clothing and take breaks to dunk my butt and legs into Laurel Creek just a couple hundred feet away.

Adding true walls to about half my 3 open sides of the “white trash” tarp walls studio and a built-in work-bench and some shelving on the north wall is gonna be SO GOOD. Rodent-proof cabinets from IKEA will also be a godsend as those bastards do some major damage over the winter stealing candles and gloves and literally anything I leave out for even a night for their nests. 😱😅 Hoping to reveal the glow up (taking lots of good “before” shots so we can see the transition in a very satisfying video) by mid-March. Until then waiting for Sam to mill the lumber on his sawmill and making little mock-ups in Canva like a big dork…🤗 this image reminds me a dark backdrop may have to be included for new stöod vibes!

30/01/2023

OCTOBER ‘22. One of my favorite days of my floral career to date. Indigo you were truly a treasure of a client and I’ll be forever grateful for the immense trust you gave me for your wedding designs. We picked an overall color vibe but I had full permission to skew it more yellow/more peachy- whatever I saw fit. While delivering a wedding the week before up in the mountains of Cashiers/Highlands I saw just how perfect the sourwood trees were doing fall their color change magic show & the Monday of this wedding I impulsively ordered a cheap/flimsy rounded arch (yes- on dreaded Amazon, which I rarely do that’s how determined I was to pull off this arbor) because I no longer wanted to build a two towers deconstructed arch. Indigo always emphasized her love of vintage cottage garden vibes (kindred spirit) and Jane Austen style whimsy and I decided the round arch base would just feel so much more romantic. I wouldn’t let anyone else touch the thing while I worked on it- for fear too much yanking would make the thing flop totally lopsided and throw off my makeshift bricks and bucket weights. Sourwood branches and yellowing ferns (ferns foraged as we left a wedding venue the week before after midnight bc I’m slightly insane/love my job) and wild asters for twinkle with the very last of the cosmos and I just overflow with joy.

28/01/2023

More gorgeous photos from my final event delivered November 2022. Juicy fall tones and the always gorgeous Glassy Chapel. Swipe for the ceremony and see my previous post for their reception/part one. missed no detail and you should all hire her, lol. 🤗

26/01/2023

NOVEMBER 2022. Courtney & Andrew’s reception at SO wonderfully documented by

I’m not really kidding when I say the majority of photogs barely even glance at reception décor. I know y’all have a lot on your timelines but clients probably want to recall what over half their budget for flowers was spent on too! 🤪

I’ve opened galleries of hundreds upon hundreds of images with barely 10 shots total of anything that adorned tables at the entire event- often shot from too far away to see any detail besides some kinda lump of a centerpiece and candles. I know wedding photographers aren’t working *for me* as they shoot for our mutual clients but part of me 🤔wonders why they don’t see slightly more value in spending even just ten more minutes thoughtfully grabbing content of reception spaces. Knowing that clients probably barely have a chance to sit and stare at between all the dancing and schmoozing, it’s a job requirement IMO.

So this gallery from was a rare TREAT and I have to do a full carousel post of just reception- gorgeous bouquet shots dropping later... What a gift to have so many images that aren’t blurry dark snaps from 25 feet away. Photos that help me showcase some of my cute rental options in gorgeously edited lighting are like solid gold. So THANK YOU Jenn for caring about the details. Every florist you work with appreciates you!!! 🤗

Rich fall tones and textures brought to you by my last stems of an heirloom chrysanthemum crop that survived the early frost and went on to bloom just in time for this gorgeous day. 🍂

Following up last night’s post with even more magical images from this October wedding for less than 30 guests.

Don’t want to host a huge event that requires a second mortgage to afford? Keep it tiny and so extra SPECIAL.

Do it at a rooftop bar but make it brunch timing then go enjoy a festival (it was Fall for Greenville in this instance) afterwards so your wedding vendors were all done before dinner.

Style the table with taper candles that don’t even get lit (the wind up here would never allow hah) just because that pop of green is too sexy to skip alongside the rest of these warm tones.

My absolute favorite events to flower are the ones that are SO unapologetically personalized to the lovers celebrating that it feels like a big warm hug to see it all come together.

Planning your wedding? Don’t forget to strongly consider how you want your day to FEEL. Don’t let dominant industry trends or some family members’ need to “keep up with the Joneses” highjack your version of joy. 💛 And of course hire me to fill the day with all the best seasonal flourishes the October garden has to offer especially if you give me such a DELISH starting point for color ideas and let me have lots of room for interpreting your ideas like Anna & Jacob did. 😉

13/01/2023

Always slightly mortified when I forget to post more content bc I have oodles of 🫧gems🫧 in the archives y’all haven’t even seen once yet on the feed and I’m sorry! I like to stay off my phone more these days (so I’m not an anxious basket case of negativity) and just get overwhelmed trying to pick what to post so I just don’t even try. Really silly stuff. I’ll try harder…🤣🤪😉

Here’s a nice full carousel of magical photos by of an utterly special intimate rooftop affair with that had the most ridiculous 90 minute setup window (that’s parked/getting on elevator til fully cleaned up 1.5 hours!) and I am still in awe of this install our crew of 4 whipped up in a flash. Swipe and feast your eyes on one my favorite October weddings of all. Marigolds! Japanese anemones! And the obsession of my heart in 2021- the first year I grew apricot lemonade cosmos and they basically inspired this whole palette. I need to simmer up another pot of dye to make more saucy greens like Anna’s streamers here. I have a pile of white clothing I’ve been hoarding so a significant portion of my wardrobe can be swamp witch green and I can be my truest self yet lol.

Got back a teaser video from my talented friend Jon Stegenga Media from this fall. Guess this is a video version of an introduction (i know it’s Monday-whatever Friday-specific hashtag game). Enjoy! Can’t wait to share a longer one on my website with kitty cameos for you Spider and Mullein fans out there 😽

Getting to see my arrangements in a breezy setting *really* makes it all feel "garden style". Haha. That's my preferred descriptor of my floral design taste BTW. For some reason when people call my work "wild" I cringe a little, to me this implies haphazard and I like to think I'm way more intentional with my farming and artistic choices. I know everyone means well by it, they just don't have the verbiage to describe the lack of predictable wholesale regulars like gerber daisies or standard (cheap) carnations arranged in tight little mounds of uniformity. Just a heads up to the untrained floral lovers, some of us hate the word wildflower to describe our painstakingly tended cultivated varieties of flowers. 😂 #farmerflorist #flowerfarmer #freshpicked #rosestoryfarm #laurelcreekflorals #arbordesign #flashesofdelight #americangrownflowers #realwedding #thatsdarling #underthefloralspell #greenbrierwedding #greenvillewedding #greenvilleflorist #ashevilleflorist #828isgreat #yeahthatgreenville #slowflowers

Studies that show all the death to the natural world our species causes literally make my heart ache. Also #nodapl because we cannot afford more decades of fossil fuels. And water is everything. #laurelcreekflorals

Final #zinnia harvest of 2016! Cucumber beetles are taking over with their #winteriscoming feasting. Time to mow everyone down and start fresh full of optimism about all the mistakes I won't make next year, and still ignorant of the ones I will make. 😊🙄

Seasons changing electricity is thick in the air today. What a glorious morning. I'll miss sitting on the porch with no shoes in a few weeks, good thing I've got cozy new slippers coming in the mail.

What a magical wedding!! 🍾💍✨ this install still lookin good the morning after...unlike me. So fun to flower and then attend this summer camp getaway wedding. @krimbrule

Evening harvest wildlife ogling. I think this beauty is a white-lined Sphinx moth. Probably grew outta the caterpillar who was munching this nicotiana back in May. #pollinators #flowerfarmer
