  • July: As the weather starts to heat up, fragrant lilies, sunflowers, and celosia are ready to go!

  • August: Experience the amazing vase-life of the lisianthus and zinnias in addition to sunflowers and other warm-season flowers.

  • September: A smorgasbord of huge dahlias and fluffy marigolds join other late summer blooms.

  • October: The last of the summer blooms continue in our greenhouse even as cool nights beckon. Latest blooming dahlias give way to fall snapdragons and more.

  • November: Fall themed bouquets are filled with chrysanthemums, snapdragons, and a variety of grasses and more.
