The audio, so fitting and true ✨

I’ve often said it’s the “little things” that these flowers allow us to do, pretty sure growing flowers and sharing them with you all is a new unlocked love language that needs to be put into the old book “the 5 love languages 😂” Do you remember when that book was such a huge trend?!

Nowadays, we find flowers are the cure for everything, need a hug, flowers, need to cry, flowers, pretty much flowers are the cure for all things… plant them, buy them, grow them just get more flowers into your life and the world will be a more beautiful place, because to be honest it’s pretty hard to be unhappy when you stare at beautiful flowers, promise!

Next up in one of our favorites is an easy to get variety called Caitlin’s Joy. Here’s a handful of blooms from our cutting rows these compact ball dahlias have great vase life and are several shades of colors. They can have a wide range of color variations, including hot pinks, purples, mauve-rose, coppery tones, and warm apricot highlights. It’s hard to believe this handful all came from the same row. The color variations can fluctuate depending on the weather, sun exposure, and time of season.

We love how versatile these blooms and their vase life you’ll see them tucked into the flower bundles from now until frost.

Welcome to September!

Not sure exactly how but this year has been flying by and we are closing in on those crisp autumn nights, if you’ve been here for awhile you know that late summer and fall are on of my favorite seasons and that is highlighted by the dahlia fields!

The dahlias LOVE the cool nights and warm days of fall, in fact they thrive in it. The warm days keep the plants growing and producing blooms. Because we started the season cutting our plants deeply, the plants will be sending up long strong stems . In the later summer days they will also change as the light becomes less intense, they thrive in the later summer days with cooler nights. Some of the blooms transition colors, or the colors become deeper/richer and more vibrant. I hope to show you more examples of this, you will see deeper, richer colors coming through in the dahlias. Not with every variety, but with some.

Now I know we are starting off our September with a heat advisory and high humidity, but stick with us, promise September is dahlia season for sure…get ready for all the photos!

Another we must grow, 20th Ave Pink Cloud.

With 20th Ave Pink Cloud being a 2024 introduction from Rich Gibson, it is still a tuber/cutting, that is harder to come by, but don’t let that stop you from trying to grab one.

20th Ave Pink Cloud produces beautiful 5 inch pinky peach blooms with a uniform shape and prolific blooming habit on a 4 -4.5 foot tall plant. Hard to find, but an incredible addition to your flower fields, we cant wait to grow even more next season.

This was one of those dahlias that I fretted over snagging in the dahlias wars…Formby Duke. Honestly this picture can’t do her justice, it is just so darn beautiful.

They hype people is real, this dahlia is just truly stunning. It’s a huge dahlia bloom with the softest pink, lavender, mauve petals. I’m sooo glad that Dane Flower Farm had this beautiful bloom/tuber in her sale! We are so lucky to get to grow her and share her beauty with you all!

Both these blooms are from one plant, I only have a few plants growing but next season I will be growing many more!
It takes time to build up our stock of the “keepers” so know that we are trying to get as many of these fun blooms into your wraps as possible!

But yes, put Formby Duke on your wishlist for sure!

Next up in dahlias we think are a must grow is KA’s ®️Keltie Rose!

This dahlia is such a good pinky peach and can lean towards more mauve in our fields. One of the things we love about this dahlia is that the more you cut the more it blooms, with long strong stems! It is a work horse in our dahlia fields and you’ll find it tucked into many of our flower wraps.

The blooms are uniformly consistent at about 3.5 inches and the plant itself and get up to 4.5 feet tall! I’d recommend growing it for both the cut flower customers and the home garden enthusiasts!

This one is a must grow in my book!
