Ranunculus is ready! It’s hard to capture in a video how many beautiful stems there are ready to pick and hundreds more coming on. Very proud of this crop which is not easy to grow. I think I have something close to 1500 plants in this bed.

In love with Lupine. Another amazing (sort of) perennial. They are short-lived so I plant them every year. These are Russell hybrids.

I’m getting lots of questions about when the peonies will bloom. Buds are still tight. In past years depending on heat they have started opening as early as June 8 or as late as June 16.

Because of our very cold spring I think they are a bit behind but the heat this week is moving them along. Stay tuned.

It’s today! Looks like the rain is holding off so come on by!

Lupine is gorgeous right now. These are Russell Hybrids that I must grow every year to ensure a good supply. I would call these tender Perennials. They last a couple of years and then they are done.

Good morning. Things are feeling like they are coming together here. The goal: Filling every square inch out there with plants, seeds or dahlias tubers. The other, more important goal: enjoying the process along the way.

Photos: coffee on the screen porch, wrapped in a blanket; chives in evening light; family of six ducks paddling by as I ate my lunch on the dock.

More on how my idea of “achieving” is changing as I age to come in a future post.

I keep getting the question is it too late to plant Dahlias? Heck, NO!

I normally plant about 500 tubers and have just started. I have planted tubers up until July 1 and they quickly catch up with anything planted previously. They love the heat, full sun, and lots of water.

Here are some of my favorites: Cornel Bronze, Peach, Cryfield Harmony (the purple one) and Brown Sugar. All of these are still available.

By the way I’m offering a free Dahlia Tuber with any purchase. So that means if you’ve been here and bought anything in 2026, you are entitled to a free Dahlia Tuber from the black crate just inside my shed.

I have an ulterior motive in the freebies and that is to get you hooked on Dahlias so that you become a tuber customer in the future.

Don’t forget about Dahlia Day here at OCF on Friday, June 5. Rain is in the forecast, but I will have everything under the upick structure and will be in the garden from 10 am to 4 pm to answer any questions you have about growing them.

🌸Bouquets to go! Every day there’s more and more blooming for Upickers and for my bouquet makers.
