Hummingbird Farm

We cut the first 60 peonies on mothers day and have been cutting hard in the peony house since then. I expect we will have 1,000 cuts or more total from the house, holding 200 plants.

The rest of the peonies in the field, more then 700 plants are coming along nicely and will likely start to bloom in the next few weeks. We hope to not have much of a gap in supply :-) The field peonies will be filling bouquets typically until the end of June or early July!

Phlox is a beautiful bouquet filler that adds lovely texture. It is a long lived easy to grow perennial flower and it comes in lots of colours!

We find that the different varieties also have different flowering times so they naturally create diversity at different times in the garden.

Long lasting in the vase but I also use lots for events as they have such a romantic vibe…. what is better for a wedding?

One of my favourite varieties is called sherbet and it is such a cool combination of pink and green blooms.
