Oh Lily you’re so fine, you’re so fine you blow my mind!

Over two years ago I planted lilies with intentions of honoring our daughter’s chosen wedding flower.

Piece of cake and easy to grow right? 🍰

And… it was a flop. I had to out source them.

No blooms that year, and hardly any again the following year.

But wow - look at her now!

Taller than me, with the richest color and the most fragrant blooms.

Another lesson from the garden:

Good growth takes time, effort, and the ability to adapt to changing circumstances.

Lilies symbolize purity, devotion, and rebirth, making them a meaningful flower for any occasion.

The reward, the beauty that blooms is all the sweeter because of the patience invested.

This weekend was all about celebrating a Fall bride-to-be and a special birthday!

The timing couldn’t have been more perfect - the rich jewel tones and warm colors were simply stunning. ✨

Hard to think fall with a nice summer stride in full bloom.

🌺Bring a little touch of Lily home, they will be available for the last of the season at the Flower Stand this weekend.

From garden to eternity.

Love-in-a-mist showing off her magical process.

I love how nature shares her ways.

Flowers can be fleeting and fade in just a few days.

How about preserving her beauty?

She can go from vase to forever in just a few days.

Hang her upside down and wait, every bloom has a story to be told.

Guess who’s back? Guess who’s back?

Nope, not the real slim shady.

The hot sun and a rapidly blooming garden.

It took a while for the summer shades to start showing their presence, but they’re back!

This week you’ll find Godetia stealing the show along with a few supporting filler acts.

They went out to market this morning and you can find them at and Pioneer Marketplace

Flower Stand will be open again on 7/20.
Taking a little summer Ocean Escape.

Thank you for supporting our little blooming business- it fills my bucket in more ways than one.

Believe in Your Bloom.

Just like flowers in a wind storm, we have the potential to overcome anything.

Rubbing shoulders with nature reminds me of the strength we all have to keep growing and blooming.

Just how? I’ve been saying, “this Summer I’m going to …”

Now here she is, just days away.

Summer!

This time of year the “to do” lists feel like the length of a hefty grocery receipt! 📋

Can you relate? Time for an escape.🏃🏻‍♀️

In all honestly, I’ve been saying for months, “This Summer l’m bringing back the Flower Stand”.

Well the time has come!

Hubby put on new skates and I rolled her out to get her a Summer ready make over.

Fresh bath to wash away the webs and a little face lift to bring out her woodsy best.

This summer our stand will be bursting with blooms while offering charming selections of local artisan goodness.

This Summer the stand will be open on Saturdays and during our events.

Be sure to add, some time to escape, on your “to do” list!

Stay tuned for our launch day.

I’m excited to get it off the list and into action.

Mom, Mum, Momma, Madre - the many endearing ways my son’s say I love you without saying , I love you!

Growing up I had more than one Mother figure in my life, and each carried a special name of endearment.

The tradition of giving flowers for Mother’s Day dates back to the early 20th century, a campaign that envisioned a way to honor mothers and their sacrifices.

Mother’s Day flowers grew to be the most traditional and popular way express love and appreciation for mothers and mother figures.

Flowers aren’t always needed to express your gratitude and shed appreciation.

This Mother’s Day be sure to surround your person with all the goodness (or memories) they shared with you - with honor and love.

P.S. if you’re looking, you can find our bouquets locally this weekend.

Happy May Day 💘🌷 & Happy Wednesday Friends!

This week’s recipe of our Spring Petals by the Porch subscriptions, featured another variety of Parrot Tulips.

Every time I plant a new version I find her to be my favorite over the last one.

… from Apricot to Emperor on to Rocco.

They are “all” my favorites!

Perfectly pink softly ruffled and she is even artistic when she’s near the end of her cycle!

I’m fueled by sharing so much beauty ( oh and Coffee ☕️)

Can’t wait for the overdose of sharing more summer blooms!

P.S. Don’t miss out - Summer weekly Petals by the Porch series goes live soon!

Blooming Thoughts/ when I started this flower filled life, I had zero idea what I was doing 0️⃣

🌱Like not even how to nurture life from a seed.

⏰As time has passed I’ve learned and failed, but one thing that sticks out is the patience and perseverance.

Once I grew those babes, I was hooked.

I questioned, what was I going to do with them?

Well that was the easy part…Share them of course!!

💐I also had zero clue how to assemble and stuff pretty flowers in a jar, make a bouquet or better yet a boutonnièr.

Once I figured it out, I learned quickly that there is a love and an art in playing with colors and textures.

No paint brush required!

So says a girl who can’t even draw a stick figure ! 🙌

With all that said … Mother’s Day is one of my favorite times of the year; because I get to take my time and create something beautiful and unique from flowers.

I can’t wait to put together something special for you and your Mom this year.

If you missed it, our Mother’s Day bouquet pre-sales are live on our website.

Blooming Thoughts// 🌸 ⏰The fleeting of the seasons reminds me of the relationship of flowers and time.

As I watch these delicate blooms sway in the wind and shut down for the season. I recognize a profound connection.

Petals that bloom and wither can be related to moments in time, to embrace the good before it quickly slips away.

Flowers are a super reminder to cherish the present and revel in the beauty.

Similarly, time nudges us to seize each day, to appreciate all things that are fleeting.

🌸⏳

Today’s weather forecast is cloudy, so here’s a recipe of sunshine for you :

3 parts Tahini Daffodils

And a splash 💦 of peach (to make the Pantone happy)

All this freshness is going out to the world and her job is to spread some cheer. 📣

🌷🐰 Happy Easter! 🐣🌼

My favorite holiday of the year!

What a beautiful sunny day to reflect.

While we gather with loved ones and cherish the beauty of springtime, I’m reminded it’s beyond the colorful eggs and sweet treats.

Easter like springtime, always reminds me of a time of renewal, hope, and new beginnings.

A perfect resemblance of the incredible power of faith, resilience, and intentional love.

Take a moment, or the day to stop to smell the flowers, give pause to all that is good.

Wishing you and your loved ones a blessed Easter.

🌸🐇🌟

Thursday thoughts// May the flowers remind you that there is beauty in being different.

Let your spirit bloom freely like a wildflower, untamed and unique.

After posting my dahlia dividing win, I got so many questions about, “What’s in the crate”? This is Bride To Be. She is a perfect 4” over achiever and grown to compliment my many things - market bouquets, special arrangements, and a star piece in wedding bouquets. I grow almost a whole row of her, just for her gracing presence. Needless to say… I have an over flow of tubers and they will be available in the Spring. Leave me a “yes” if you want to grab and grow her. I will add you to my waitlist. P.S. Now booking our Ala Cart wedding services for 2024. Link in bio to our website. Bridal Bootcamp dates go live soon (learn the tricks to DIY your wedding). #dahlia #weddingflowers #flowerfarmer #growyourown #skagit #skagitvalley

Mom’s come to us in many ways and with many influences, the most common virtue is the love we share 💕 celebrate your person today.

Pre-orders on our website. @maggiesgardenstems.com Local on site pickup. Saturday or Sunday before 11am.

Hi friends - Thank for the pop-in and pause. If you are new to me, or our page, welcome! I’m Chery owner and grower at Maggie’s Garden & Stems. A wife, mother, and during the week – a nurse. My personality reflects a lot of contentment while helping, serving, and digging into making deeper connections with my loves and my community. I’m going into my 3rd season as a grower, and have found my garden is my space to escape from the chaos that surrounds us, explore my creativity, and share it all with my community. Our lives have forever been marked by the impact of a pandemic, but more now than ever we have been pushed to recognize mindful living and with that comes self-care. For many years self-care was a selfish concept, a concept I had to learn and embrace through education and professional development. What does all this have to do with YOU? What does it have to do with FLOWERS? The answer is SIMPLE. We need to normalize self-care. There are many studies supporting flowers as an excellent way to lower stress related depression, anxiety, and improve your overall well-being. Sound’s great to me, and I’m in – GIVE ME ALLL THE FLOWERS! Coming from the garden connecting is key, we grow with you in mind. In 2023 we will focus on all the pretties blooming, practice authenticity, and building up community. How about you? How do you find balance and practice self-care? Come along and share your thoughts.

Sometimes looking back, helps you leap forward to the brighter things that are ahead! Seed starting season is what’s happening - dreams of sweet peas dancing in my head 💕

Remember those Lupine about to leap from last weeks post? We left for a few days of r&r, and came home to a field in full bloom! Beauty all around 💐. . . . I have stems available for grab and go, DM me to place an order.
