Come visit us at the Spencer Farmers Market until noon (or sold out). Come early to grab your favorites, it’s still nice out!
We are baaaack! This marks our first week back at Spencer Farmers Market! We are excited to be back and show off the star of the week - these beautiful sunnies! Come grab flowers for table, fresh veggies and bread for supper, and some yummy treats for dessert!
Dahlias are looking great this year! We tried grow bags last year which didn’t yield the blooms we wanted so this year is back in the ground! They are looking healthy and can’t wait to see them producing in a few months! 😍
A few successions still under lights to ensure we have beautiful blooms all summer! #flowerfarm #iowagrown #local flowers
We have an update on our field peonies.
We took action this year and sprayed fungicide on our peonies fed them, and watered them with more attention than years prior. As bloom time approached, I noticed there were very few blooms per plant. After some research, it seems our peonies were hit pretty hard with our late spring frost.
This is a bummer but looking on the bright side. While the few blooms we have this year are beautiful, they aren’t the quality we want to provide, so we will have no flash peony sale this year.
The bright side? Our plants look gorgeous! They are disease free, weeds managed, and without using their energy to make flowers this year, we are hoping all of that energy goes into root production to make more beautiful blooms for next year!
Most of the summer field is planted but a few more successions are still being started, while my summer help is taking the morning off, Nala is helping get the sunflowers started!
What a gorgeous sight! To the left you can see the cool flower beds. Flowers that can take some cold temps - think snaps, strawflower and dianthus. Bryan is tilling and we are taking advantage of the low wind day and creating some warm annual beds - think zinnia, basil, and all the celosia!
We used the beautiful weather this weekend to finish hardening off some perennials and hardy annuals started inside! Tilling and amendments tonight and hopefully some planting tomorrow!
