What an August this is turning our to be. Wow. Flowers are coming out of my ears! In other words, the flowers are producing like crazy. Almost all of what I have planted are blooming now, and I am just gob smacked by their beauty. Lisianthus, snapdragons, cosmos, zinnias, monarda, asters, rudbeckia and sunflowers…OMG. Did I add that the dahlias are starting as well? Almost too much for the senses to take in, trippin colors man. Oh to be a flower farmer with lots of flowers and flower people that just love flowers.
All you wonderful flower people that come to get flowers on Fridays know that as soon as the flower shed closes, well not as soon as I would like because there is still lots of work to do, but as soon as I can I hop in the car with my “go cup” of flowers to go to the lake for the weekend to decompress. To my bliss. So every Friday, my flowers and I go on a trip to the lake. And here we are Sunday, with Friday’s flowers at the lake.
Flowers just don’t have to stay home with you, they can travel with you as well. It is embarrassing to say but we were at a wedding two weeks back and yes, I took flowers with me to grace our room for the weekend. In a “to go cup”. Isn’t that the reason that DD and McDonalds make go cups to transport flowers to where you need to be? Works for me. and if you don’t know, I have a collection of “go cups” on hand to get your flowers from point A to wherever point B might be.
To all my flower people. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your support and for your love of flowers.
