Explore seasonality!

Flowers transform with the changing seasons, mirroring nature's transitions. Just as tomatoes won’t grow in the winter, zinnias wait for their time to shine in the warm embrace of summer. The allure of local blooms lies in their dance with the seasons, from the early arrival of Narcissus in spring to the radiant sunflowers of summer, and the majestic dahlias that herald the arrival of fall.

To truly love something, you must know it. Flowers are no different! Annual flowers can be divided into two major groups: hardy annuals and tender annuals. Hardy annuals, including pansies and snapdragons, are resilient and flourish in cool growing conditions, while tender annuals, like marigolds and zinnias, crave warmer temperatures to thrive. Recognizing and appreciating these differences will deepen your love and knowledge of these beautiful blooms.
