Just finished picking buckets and buckets of Cafe au Lait dahlias before the rain comes! Happy Friday everyone

Dahlia season is in full swing! Pair them up with some roses and snapdragons and you’ve got one beautiful bouquet

We are full swing into dahlia season! These huge Cafe au Lait beauties found their way into wedding arrangements this weekend

Light pink and ivory bouquets for a summer vineyard wedding

The first of the Cafe au Lait’s..queen of the dahlias starting to bloom! This beauty is paired with some Wine Eyed Jill and Ferncliff Pearl dahlias

This is one stunner of a rose! Fun in the Sun so fitting for the summer and the to die for peach colour fits right in with peach season in the Okanagan

Dahlias are here! It’s the time of year I wait for in anticipation. After months of storing tubers, then dividing, and finally planting, now we get to enjoy their beauty until the end of October

Smoke filled skies have been quite depressing these days. Thank goodness for beautiful flowers blooming to brighten spirits Have a great long weekend everyone!

Swimming in snapdragons I can’t even keep up cutting with the amount of snapdragons blooming right now! Don’t be surprised if your next bouquet is jam packed with these beauties

I said goodbye to my very last Coral Charm peony in a bouquet last week! And wow was it a stunner In the next few weeks my main flower season begins! Soon I will be swimming in blooms of dahlias

You thought these peony beauties were out of season..you are correct! However, these peonies showed up in my bouquets last week. I took the risk of saving some peonies by packaging them in plastic and storing flat in the cooler. It works amazingly! And voila, peonies in bouquets in July!! Amazing

With the last day of school right around the corner, requests for graduation and teacher bouquets have been rolling in! I’m having tons of fun putting together custom bouquets like these pink beauties...even if it’s at 5am in the cool of the day during this heat wave

Two of my favourite things..a good coffee and beautiful flowers Even better, is a coffee out of my Grandma’s teacup while photographing a lineup of David Austin Roses
