March is here which means spring is coming too, and I am so ready for it! I need some warm, green spring vibes in my body! I can’t wait to smell the first grass mowing, crop inspecting greenhouses barefoot, and see color in the fields. But get ready, I have some things to share with you this week!
You can almost feel the farm winding up for the season. We had heaters installed in houses 2 and 3 this week. This will help us have more control on our winter mother mum stock. Which by the way, did you see we launched new varieties!?! There are some amazing finds like Pink Cadillac that you will WANT in your gardens come fall. Coupon code MUMLOVE will save you 5% off any of our mum plants!
The amazing farm team prepped beds with compost, worked on irrigation, and planted this year's lisianthus crop. The first big spring planting will begin soon so it feels great to knock these things out so early! We have really perfected our farming rhythm and communication and one of my favorite things is sharing what I’ve learned over the years. If you’re an avid gardener, new to flower farming, or even a seasoned veteran like me, check out our flower farmer tours! The small customized mini-focused tours are such a fun way for us to connect and show you the things you care about.
Mackenzie has been such a superstar on the design table helping inquiring couples find the perfect flowers (and budget) for weddings! if you know folks planning their I dos make sure you send them coupon code LOVEMACK for 10% off. Her work has made a LOT of people smile on a special day. Check out our local wedding flowers here.
I have had so much fun with Mackenzie and Elizabeth checking the farm to see if the flowers are going to show up according to the schedule we want– (spoiler) they never do. However, they are coming and while it may be too early for peonies, we do have the most AMAZING specialty tulips available. They are so fluffy and beautiful that they can pass for peonies at a quick glance.
I think these are the perfect bouquets for March, and I seriously can’t wait to get mine. Here’s a special promo for you too- BLOOM15 will get you 15% off our Specialty Tulip Bouquet! Don’t forget March is Women’s History Month and I know just like us, you have some amazing gals in your world you want to celebrate, so let’s send them beautiful tulips!!
I hope you are as excited as I am to jump into March…I’m feeling lucky how about you?!?
XOXO, Jess
