If you haven’t planted your bulbs yet, it’s ok!! 👍 We haven’t gotten them all planted yet either! Here in Reno, zone 7b, the ground is not frozen yet. It likely won’t freeze until January when we get consistent below freezing temps (day and night temps). This weekend will be nearly 60 degrees, and rainy, so if you are looking for a great weekend to plant bulbs this upcoming one will be an awesome time! We are planning to get the remaining bulbs in this weekend, because then we have to set aside time for the ranunculus so I’d like to have all those bulbs done first. Anyway it’s always a juggle this time of year and if you are feeling behind, it’s all good, you still have time! 🤍🤍🤍

Lots of planning and prepping at this time of year goes into our spring bouquets! 💐 We have to ensure all bulbs, ranunculus corms, and hardy spring annuals are planted now and care for them over winter to ensure these beauties for our spring bouquet subscription customers! If you’d like to join us in the spring for these premium, special blooms, pre-orders for our limited spring subscriptions will be available later this winter! Keep an eye on your emails as we will be sending out all the info and how to order to our email members. Not on our email list? Join now through the link in our profile! ✨

The ranunculus are starting to sprout in their trays 🌱 and the tunnels are going up this weekend and the corms will be planted out in two weeks, we always plant basically thanksgiving time and it seems to work out pretty well timing wise! That’s also when I have some time off to actually have time to get them all in the ground! Who’s excited for these spring beauties!! 🌸

Heirloom Mums are so special, I wish our season here lasted just a tad longer so we could grow more mums! But they bloom very late (mid/late September for earliest varieties), and some of the really awesome varieties don’t bloom until November! What do you think about mums?! 👇

This weekend has been all about the bulbs. We are planting nine different types of bulbs, six are pictured here. Can you guess all 6?! The answers have just been posted in my stories!

Thinking of roses lately and working on my plan for the many roses bushes arriving in the spring! Channeling this happy vibe in the photo, but it’s been a real rough week and I just can’t 🤍 Planting bulbs and shoveling compost this weekend. Hope everyone is doing ok 🤍

Can’t wait for these blooms! We soaked and set the ranunculus corms up to pre-sprout today for planting out in a few weeks. We are planting a lot of corms!! I had way more than I thought from last years order, which included a mix of a ton of different varieties not just our usual Italian varieties, so we will have some fun colors and different types to share in the spring!

Happy Halloween! 🎃

The bulb planting has begun! After our major tulip loss last year, we are giving tulips one more go, this time they are going back in-ground after being unsuccessful with the no-dig tulip method. We’ll also be planting other bulbs like fancy daffodils and allium, and a few other surprises for our spring bouquet subscription! Details and ordering for our spring bouquet subscription will be available later this winter, join our email list to be the first to know! (Link in profile)

In addition to digging up the dahlia tubers this weekend, we will be soaking & pre-sprouting the ranunculus to plant out in a few weeks! We like to get these out in the ground in November, but they can also be planted out in early spring too! We have just had the best success with fall planting at our property. Ranunculus are our top 5 favorite flower so we always look forward to seeing those little corms every fall 🐙

I’ll be digging up all the dahlias this weekend to store their tubers for winter! Here is hoping I have better success at winter storage this year now that I have the cooler and can maintain humidity better. Have you dug up your dahlias yet?

Sipping rose petal liqueur in rose fields at still a *pinch me* moment! ✨

Pretty amazing that these rose blooms survived 28 degrees from the other morning!

What an absolute dream event at members autumn soirée!! Thank you so much Gracie and Ryan for putting together this beautiful rose filled day for us at !! 🤍✨ We are excited to offer some of their beautiful florist rose varieties we are growing starting next spring!!! 🙌

Frostmas hit just as I was leaving for the airport to So CA, when I return this will look a lot different as many of the flowers have died back for winter now. I hope all the baby flower plugs I planted are OK!! 🤞 Today is the big rose soirée at the rose farm, stay tuned to my stories today if you’d like to see a ton of beautiful roses!!! ✨✨✨

10/16/2024

Yay for the fall flush! 🤩🤍

10/16/2024

I’ll be attending a special rose event this weekend and I can’t wait to have you all come along with me! We’ll be learning all about roses and enjoying a rose filled afternoon at a rose farm! I will be posting a lot in my stories, so stay tuned soon! 🙌💛

Gardening provides a real sense of accomplishment. 💪I moved a ton of soil and compost today to make these new beds in the back, and it was a real struggle but felt good to get it done myself! And Mark came home and said they look great, so that felt even better! 🤩🙌 Now, time to soak in the tub because every piece of me is sore and slightly broken 🤣 Tomorrow is planting day! 🥳

We still have some flowers! 💐 Our last farmers market of the season was last weekend, but we still have flowers available through October 11th via porch pickup. Send us a DM at least 24 hrs in advance of porch pickup (we are located between Longley Ln and S McCarran). Happy Saturday! 🌸 #flowers #autumnblooms #locallygrown

My favoooooorite!! 🧡🔥✨ #GiantMarigolds, the flower I love most of all, (other than ranunculus and dahlias and lisianthus and roses and peonies and sweet william and and allium and campanula, it’s impossible to have one favorite flower 🤣)

This beauty from @anniesannuals 🤩 #anniesannuals

The dahlias are on their way! Slowly but surely,… the heatwave has stalled them a bit, but they’ll be here in August 🙌 #dahlias #dahliaseason #locallygrown

Small-scale urban flower farming is using every square foot of your yard to grow flowers! We have transformed our front yard to include hundreds of perennials and annuals in our front yard. Who needs a lawn when you can have a garden? 🌸🐝🙌 Thanks so much for your support of @casablancaflowerfarm, Reno grown flowers 💐! #urbanflowerfarm #urbanfarm #renoflowers

Local blooms will be at the @riversidefarmersmarketreno tomorrow 8am-1pm! #marketbouquets #flowers

They say patience will be rewarded, and that has never been more true than when growing biennial foxgloves! It takes a full year from starting biennial foxgloves seeds to when you finally will see blooms. But we think they are worth it! Especially this variety Cafe Crème 🤍 Do you grow any biennials? 👇 #foxglove #cafecreme #springflorals #cafecremefoxglove

It’s always disheartening to lose all or a large portion of your crop to pest damage! 😭 but that is the reality of growing flowers without the use of chemical pesticides. Sometimes the beneficial insects we release can’t keep up with the pest pressure when it’s so high, like this spring which the quick warming spell has caused an absolute explosion of them, and the weather isn’t quite the right conditions for the beneficials to thrive just yet. So a loss of blooms is basically inevitable! So no pretty purple ranunculus for spring sadly! 💜 #locallygrownflowers #IPM #pestmanagement #springblooms #ranunculus #realitiesoffarming

If not, highly recommend it! 🌸🫶 #eleganceranunculus #springblooms #flowers #barefootblooms #flowerfarm #urbanflowerfarm #locallygrown #localflower
