It’s Opening Week!

As we transition the garden towards our English Cottage garden dream, we have also been intentional about choosing specific flower varieties and colors to have a whimsical wildflower look and give our bouquets a distant style that you will immediately be able to recognize as Grumbine Acre flowers at markets and events.

Not only will this make visiting our garden a unique experience from other local cut flower gardens, but it will also help make your cut flower arrangements from Grumbine Acres look even more amazing and make cutting even more enjoyable, not to mention easier for those who feel overwhelmed by flower design.

If you love this style, you’ll definitely want to sign up for our summer bouquet subscriptions this year or grab a season pass so you can keep a fresh beautiful arrangement on your table all summer long.

We’re so excited to be open for our 2nd cutting garden season!

This season is full of change for us as we have begun to transition our cut flower garden to include rows of beautiful pollinator friendly perennials and move forward with our vision of making our cutting garden into an English Cottage garden dream. We will continue to grow and expand our perennial flowers over the next few years and have goals to transition the garden using regenerative growing so we can make this not only a wonderful place for you to visit, but also a haven for the birds & the bees!

Currently blooming in our perennial rows you’ll find iris, lupines, delphinium, coneflowers, and sage.

We hope to double the number of perennial rows this fall and will soon begin starting seeds indoors again for planting later this year as some of our annuals phase out.

If you have driven by lately, you might have noticed that our flower shop has gotten a bit of a face lift with a new sign and some lovely copper farmhouse lights.

We continue to add to our pollinator garden next to our shop and will be adding another raised bed of herbs to our herb garden beside the shop.

We have several rows of annual cutting flowers growing. With cool spring temps this year, we got a delayed start in planting, but they are beginning to bloom and will reach peak blooming season late July - early September.

In our rows of annuals you’ll find colorful zinnias, strawflowers, celosia, sunflowers, cosmos, and dahlias. There will be something new blooming all season long, so you’ll want to visit more than once!

Our favorite time to be in the garden and the best time to cut flowers to extend the life of your blooms is in the morning and evening, thought we’re pretty partial to evenings in the garden because we have absolutely gorgeous sunset views behind the garden and pasture.

We hope you will visit us this season!
