That’s a wrap on peony season here in Missouri! Thank you to everyone that followed along and share in a passion for peonies! I love meeting you guys, and so many were buying for their moms, friends and neighbors. We had a wedding arrangement and a book club, restaurant tables, and teacher gifts, and my favorite… for no reason at all. 🥰

❄️ For the nerds… This was a hard year for peony crops. We had a warm spring that got blooms starting early and then the usual late season freeze caused “bud blast” stunting the early buds. Because I’m new and don’t know what I’m doing, I thought it was a bug that got my whole coral crop and several other early varieties. I’m hearing growers across the warmer states have lost anywhere from 20-85% of their peony crops. Sarah Bernhardt is patient though, and shined this season (first pic).

🔮As we start planning next year’s peony season, I’m thinking about how to change up my offerings, more mixed wrapped bouquets, more long stems and saving the mason jars for the younger smaller peonies and other spring blooms as I introduce more varieties on the farm.

🌻 Summer! I know I keep teasing about a farm stand. It will probably get down to the road later in June as we move into summer annuals. I wasn’t planning on doing anything other than peonies, so we are experimenting this year with grown and foraged market bouquets and other fun goodies in the stand. But of course I’ve been squirreling away lots of peonies in the cooler to include in the bouquets to stay on brand. 😉

📝 I would love to get feedback, thoughts, reviews, pictures or anything that would be helpful!

💕 Thanks again for a fun year two at Old Plank Peony Farm!

How we doin, moms?! First week of summer down and I’m already exhausted. Maybe a big bouquet of flowers would distract from all the debris of kids that are home all day?? 🙋🏼‍♀️

🌸🚨 Hello! Just some housekeeping as we’re knee deep in peony season! We’ve been getting a lot of calls and people showing up at my back door (please don’t do that! 😳) asking about peony plants.

At this time we are selling pre-order cut flower peony bouquets.

We don’t offer potted plants or roots yet, maybe in the next few years. I would direct you to Helmi’s down the road on Rt K, she probably still has some plants! 🪴😍

➡️ Soon we will have a roadside flower stand, and you’ll know it when you see it! ✨signage✨

🌸🔥Please don’t drive up to the house unless you have an appointment for pickup, most farms around here aren’t open to the public - and there isn’t much to see anyway because we’re a cut flower farm. For everyone’s sense of safety, and for the sake of animals running around, just reach out if you have questions. Thank you! 🌸☎️

Woke up Mother’s Day morning to a few Sarah B’s blooming, and showed my daughter how to look for the squishy ones that were ready to cut. We come back after an all day soccer trip to St Louis to 30-40 blooms opening up!! So here’s my first armload selfie, hopefully my first of many more in the years to come.

Closing subscriptions Tuesday night!! Friday pickups for the next 3 weeks. 😍

Happy Mother’s Day! So many Sarah B’s woke up today! They’re my favorite. 🌸 And Coco the bottle baby lamb chased me all the way down here and helped.

Last chance to get a subscription, only 3 weeks left of peony season!! I’ll close it on Wednesday. Pickup on Friday!
