Blossoming Bough Flowers

Blossoming Bough Flowers Romantic - Botanical - Elegant - Wild: year-round floral design for your event + ecologically grown seasonal flowers from my gardens in northern Vermont.

Tucked away in the woods of beautiful Craftsbury Common, we offer floral design for all occasions-- our specialty is in romantic, lush, botanically inspired florals for events. We also offer local delivery of bouquets created from flowers and greens grown right here, and sell small bouquets at local stores in season. As a micro flower farm on 1/8 acre, we cram the growing space with beautiful, ele

gant, often fragrant blooms like sweet peas, Iceland poppies, foxgloves, cosmos, and whatever else will grow well here. Currently we are trialing tons of new varieties of annual and perennial flowers, plus a selection of hardy, scented roses, planning for larger plantings of perennials and roses in the future. Also on trial this year are over a dozen varieties of specialty dahlias. Our growing practices are clean, ecologically conscious, and sustainable, focusing on soil health first since that is where the healthiest, longest-lasting and most beautiful flowers begin. Although not certified organic, we use only organic methods in growing our flowers. We also love to support other local flower farmers-- so our arrangements will always be mostly made up of locally grown and foraged materials. If you are interested in purchasing a bouquet for your next party, talking over floral design for your wedding, or bringing our bouquets into your store, please get in touch via Facebook message or email. Looking forward to hearing from you!

A couple pretty personal florals from last weekend! My niece and nephew had their junior prom last week and I offered to create these for them. Maybe next year I’ll offer these to my whole community!

If you’re marrying in late spring, these flowers very well could be in your florals too— ranunculus, Spanish hyacinth, muscari, and snow-in-summer.

I’m taking inquiries for all types of events in 2027, full service floral design and à la carte! Made with almost all local flowers, a Vermont-nature inspired elegance and whimsy, and lots of love.

Well, another frosty night. I farm in the middle of a large open field that drains air from a valley full of ponds down into a stream. So it gets much colder there on clear nights than the forecast says, usually about 8 degrees I think.

I’ve kept most of my peonies covered for the cold nights since they were a couple inches high. I’m doing a casual experiment to see if covering them vs not covering has any effect on numbers of flower buds that survive to bloom. Only problem is, I didn’t see one 26 degree night coming and left them uncovered— so far I don’t think that changed things based on how the buds currently look, but we’ll see. I’d love to not have to cover peonies in the spring but past experience tells me it’s likely necessary to get good flower yields.

I’ve been gardening every chance I get. It’s not always easy when your first and most important job is Mama. It’s been a little crazy around here with managing seedlings (some getting awfully big not to be in the garden yet), seedling collection preorders, a popup appearance at our farmers market today, covering & uncovering plants in the garden, and prepping garden beds for the next big thing- planting the dahlias! I still have a bunch of weeding, compost application, and putting down paper mulch (currently it’s from ) since a mama-farmer most definitely does NOT have time to hoe or pull weeds. Whew.

It’s not been an easy spring for farming and gardening!

So, my internet wouldn’t let me post a reel on this that also included my short intro video, but I’m putting this one up showing how the tubers I had tried to rehydrate by trimming the tip off and putting them in water for a few days.

Initially it looked like it was going to work at least somewhat. But after I removed them from the water to let the cut surfaces dry as one would need to before planting, most of the cut surfaces and some of the other areas of most of the tubers were rotting. Squish, slime!

It did seem like the one tuber that I had peeled some of the skin off in a couple places but hadn’t cut much of the root end off, fared better. But none of these are any better looking than they were when I started and they went in the compost.

Conclusion: rehydrating dahlia tubers in water doesn’t work. Placing them in lightly moistened soil in a 55-60-ish degree F, bright spot may have worked better to revive them and get the eyes sprouting and roots growing, as they naturally would after a particularly dry winter.

And, if ALL your tubers look like this, well, I still have plenty of good ones for your garden or Mother’s Day gifting!

Hellebores are starting!! So exciting to see color! These plants have had plenty of room for a few years— major contrast with the ones that only have one flower stem still, having been crowded less than 12” apart in my original hellebore bed for years (finally remedied that a few days ago).

And, cool season perennials can grow outside during the day now! Delphinium, foxgloves, and feverfew. Just in time to make space under the lights for a ton of warmth loving plants I just seeded, plus some new dahlia acquisitions that arrived with sprouts and need to be potted right away.

How wonderful spring feels!!

Major seed starting push today! Got over 300 zinnias, 170 cosmos, 150+ amaranth, and some sulphur cosmos, seashells coreopsis, and bunnytail grass seeded. Much of these are for the cutting garden this summer, for wholesale to florists and ! And some are for a new venture, cutflower garden seedling collections which a few lucky locals ordered (and if you’re seeing this and you can come pick them up here in Craftsbury, there’s still a little more time to order one— see my s h o p linked )!

The amount of seeding exceeded my flats so I did a bunch of soil blocks too. I’m hoping I won’t run out of bottom flats now… still need to see my home garden tomatoes and basil and curcubits!

A snippet of late winter/early spring farm life… before 6+ more inches of new snow… and after.

Hoping that the tiny micro clover seedlings that are meant to become living mulch on my new peony planting survive the spring. I really like this idea (thanks ) and hope it works. Tired of so much plastic landscape fabric mulch in my fields but with the quackgrass I am not sure I have much choice in places.

We are getting a huge dumping of snow now. Two days ago I was looking at these emerging peony shoots for a new variety I’m excited to offer my wedding couples and wholesale customers! And measuring all the garden beds to make an updated garden map! And now it’s covered with soooo much new snow.

I’m excited to have the new garden map done now for more accurate crop planning. Lots of beautiful dahlias, zinnias, phlox, cosmos, amaranth and even some double blush echinacea from and white echinacea I’ll start from seed, going in this spring.

Summer sunshine in flowers. Some of my favorite dahlias from last year. If I’m doing your wedding flowers in late summer (hello August weddings, I’ve got space in my calendar for you!!) dahlias will be in there!

Dahlia tuber customers, right now I’m gearing up to start packing dahlia tuber orders, printing piles of receipts and dahlia tuber care sheets. Soon I’ll start picking orders and putting them into the biodegradable plastic bags I use for inner packaging. Once I have bunch of those done, I’ll pack them in the shipping boxes and get them sent off! Because it looks like gardening season is starting earlier this year with the dramatic snowmelt, I’m going to begin shipping orders earlier, likely later this month!

I recently learned that the postal service climate-controls all their shipments, so I’m no longer worried about tubers freezing on a truck here in Vermont. It will be important for recipients to pay attention to their shipping emails and get the mail with your dahlia tubers in it the day it arrives though!
