Thursday's News

1) I got a new camera, whoopee!!!!! I love it.

2) The Cutting Garden is blooming like mad! That means that from now through the fall frosts I will be using Botanique-grown flowers in nearly every arrangement I make. That makes me smile... real big.

3) The Summer Subscription has started! This week's palette is a sweet blend of lavender, pale yellow, sapphire, and periwinkle...

 In this week's subscription arrangements: 

• Hydrangea, Sweet Peas and Cornflowers from The Botanique Cutting Garden in Seattle, WA
  
• Clematis and Scabiosa  from J.Foss Garden Flowers in Chehalis, WA
• Veronica from Everyday Flowers in Stanwood, WA
• Spuria Iris and Feverfew  from Jello Mold Farm in Mount Vernon, WA

And the final piece of news (this one is super exciting): My wonderful friend Melissa of Flying Bear Farm has started a weekly farm stand on Saturdays, from 11am-3ish, in front of Makeda Coffee on the corner of N. 78th St. and Greenwood Ave in Phinney Ridge. This week, I will be bringing her small bunches of Botanique-grown flowers to sell along with her organic veggies! Come on by this Saturday to pick up some Seattle-grown goodies from Botanique and Flying Bear Farm. Hope to see you there!
