Finished the day in the dahlia seedling patch hunting for new treasures, which is one of my favorite things to do. Each bamboo stake marks a keeper. This spot has about 3,500 dahlia seedlings planted in it, the perfect amount to work my way through in a few relaxing hours each weekend. When I first started breeding dahlias we had just gotten the new farm and I had so much room to work with I planted a huge field with over 13,000 seedlings in it. While it was incredible, each selection session took me an entire day and by seasons end I really struggled to keep up. I think I’ve finally found the sweet spot (for me), enough to really go for it, but not so many that it become a chore. The purpose of this little spot (it measures 36 feet wide x 90 feet long) is to be an escape and a late season paradise for the pollinators. #floretseeds #discoveringdahlias #dahlia #dahlias

Ranunculus are one of my favorite flowers. Often confused with roses these beauties have a long vase life & in my opinion only get better with age. Depending on where you live you can either pre-sprout your corms in the fall & overwinter them (providing a little bit of protection) or you can start them in the spring. If you’re not planting til the spring these corms will store just fine in a closet for a few months until you’re ready to plant. Believe it or not we still have some gorgeous varieties of ranunculus left in our shop (link in profile) including this beauty ‘Salmon’. A growing guide is included with every order so that you’ll have step by step instructions on how to grow these spring stunners right in your own gardens. Hurry & snag some before they’re gone! #flowerfarm #flowerfarmer #flowerfarming #springflowers #springbulbs #bulbs #flowers #freshflowers #cutflowers #ranunculus #garden #flowergarden #spring #thefarmhouseflowerfarm #pnw #stanwood
