Blossoming Bough Flowers

Blossoming Bough Flowers Romantic - Botanical - Elegant - Wild: year-round floral design for your event + ecologically grown seasonal flowers from my gardens in northern Vermont.

Tucked away in the woods of beautiful Craftsbury Common, we offer floral design for all occasions-- our specialty is in romantic, lush, botanically inspired florals for events. We also offer local delivery of bouquets created from flowers and greens grown right here, and sell small bouquets at local stores in season. As a micro flower farm on 1/8 acre, we cram the growing space with beautiful, ele

gant, often fragrant blooms like sweet peas, Iceland poppies, foxgloves, cosmos, and whatever else will grow well here. Currently we are trialing tons of new varieties of annual and perennial flowers, plus a selection of hardy, scented roses, planning for larger plantings of perennials and roses in the future. Also on trial this year are over a dozen varieties of specialty dahlias. Our growing practices are clean, ecologically conscious, and sustainable, focusing on soil health first since that is where the healthiest, longest-lasting and most beautiful flowers begin. Although not certified organic, we use only organic methods in growing our flowers. We also love to support other local flower farmers-- so our arrangements will always be mostly made up of locally grown and foraged materials. If you are interested in purchasing a bouquet for your next party, talking over floral design for your wedding, or bringing our bouquets into your store, please get in touch via Facebook message or email. Looking forward to hearing from you!

Pretty pinks— KA’s™️ Cinder Rose, Rosemary Webb, and Appleblossom dahlias are all giving their first blooms right now! All are gnawed upon a bit by various bugs (I haven’t had an extra moment to do insect control yet but bagging buds is high on my list for today) but aren’t the shapes and colors wonderful?!

Hoping to have enough tubers of these beauties to offer for next season’s gardens.

Newly available for cut foliage and SO wonderful in the garden for looks & pollinators— mountain mint! I’m especially fond of this broad leaved, silvery species, Pycnanthemum muticum. It’s native to the eastern US (further south than VT) and spreads in dry soil. These plants are a year old and are in a bed I had abandoned for annual production because it’s too dry. They love it here!

I first learned this plant from Sarah Ryhanen’s Worlds End School back in 2018 when I attended one of her last floral design courses. I was lucky to be able to use some of her mountain mint in my designs I created there and I’ve loved this plant ever since.

It’ll be on my availability lists for local florists and through The Forage for this coming week and throughout late summer and early fall til it sells out!

In June you could have boutonnieres like these too. My own ranunculus blooms and amaranth from Green Mountain Floral Supply . We have dates open for late September this year and all of 2027 growing season too!

What a lovely, super productive, strong and subtly colored zinnia variety ‘Victorian Wedding’ is! I planted all the seed from one packet of this great Erin Benzakein - Floret variety this spring and nearly all the seeds sprouted. The plants are very healthy, bushy, and the stems are lengthening nicely. From the looks of my patch of 40-50 plants, there should be almost 100 stems ready to harvest each week til it gets cold! The colors are very subtle with attractive variation within many of the blooms. Blushes, rose, peach, apricot, honey, pale n**e, gray, lime green, butter yellow, and I think I saw one with a hint of turquoise on the petal backs! These are dreamy accent flowers for any arrangement in a warm pastel palette.

Offered via my own availability list for pickup here in Craftsbury or via The Forage to dropoff points in MA, NH & southern ME!

Just leaving this pretty picture here. An “Medium Table Arrangement” from my color-customized A La Carte event flowers selection. I’ll deliver A La Carte flowers & drop them off throughout the northern half of Vermont.

It’s not often peonies, ranunculus, and cosmos from the same garden can be in an arrangement together! Some cooler storage was involved and the peonies and ranunculus still look beautiful!

Dahlia update! A few dahlias that started as cuttings and potted tubers have started to bloom— first one, ‘Rivermerle Rose Gold.’ I am super excited to see this one in person for the first time and yes it IS REALLY THIS COLOR!!! What an exceptional bloom! I am curious to see how the plant continues to do.

RM Dragon’s Blood is opening too, but got chewed by earwigs or something, so I’ll wait til a later flower on that one to take pictures. RM Peachy Pink and Darcy have buds. And one of my Lakeview Blush plants is blooming but its first bloom is lopsided (as they sometimes are in my mid-hayfield tarnished plant bug infested garden) so it’ll wait for its photo too. So exciting to have dahlias blooming already and tons of buds on the way!

This bouquet for Caroline was so much fun to design! All locally Vermont-grown except the amaranth which was an important stylistic element for her bouquet.

A great example of a medium-small, customized bouquet from my A La Carte Flowers offering. Designed in the colors requested, with a particular style in mind but not dominating the concept, with seasonal blooms.

For this wedding at The Notch House for Caroline Deakin and Steve Shiner , we did 3 DIY buckets overflowing with flowers for them to design their table flowers with, simple personal flowers (bouquets and boutonnieres) and a single arbor spray that came out magnificent! The groom picked up the DIY buckets on Thursday before the wedding and I delivered the rest on the wedding morning.

I love working like this and this couple was so great to collaborate with! Thank you!!

This is Iris germanica ‘Rock ‘n’ Roll Girl’ from Hugh Stout Jr. and I have 2 new plants blooming— last year I began collecting bearded iris I think have potential for cut flowers since they are so stunning. This one definitely does! It’s beautiful, a perfect pale peach color, and the blooms last longer than the more old-fashioned bearded iris I have. My plan is to try several varieties in colors that will be useful for June wedding work and then multiply the best ones so I someday can offer these wholesale. For now, I think i’ll cut one of the two stems in my garden and try saving it in my cooler (which is on, keeping peonies and ranunculus) for this weekend’s bridal bouquet!

Same arrangement, different light. I love watching these coral peonies age… the color progression from brilliant coral pink to peach and blush to pale yellow before they disintegrate and become a scattering of compost, is wonderful to observe.

Also check out the Soft Salmon Saucer peony (second slide). It’s the last one to bloom— cut on a tiny short stem to preserve the full foliage on the plant which I just put in last fall. It’s best not to let new peonies bloom but I HAD to see what these beauties I went through a ton of work coordinating a huge group peony order for. I only wanted 12-15 given how I use peonies (generally can’t sell many wholesale here since everyone grows them; so I use them in my own event work mostly). So I did hours and hours of work to get a small number out of a giant group order from Farmer Bailey. Not sure I’ll do that again but I’m happy to have them!

The tender garden plants are all in ( except a couple watermelon starts which we’ll plant today). This coming week is mostly about preparing and harvesting for an a la carte wedding at Lareau Farm and having a friend here visiting for the first time in years. Then the next week I have another small à la carte wedding but I hope to get some of my potted perennials (baptisia) in the ground… and start moving one of my gardens in the yard. That one’s for another post!
