Nassau & Blake Urban Flowers

Nassau & Blake Urban Flowers Born from rebuilding — of land, of rhythm, of self. Every stem is grown on this historic corner and shared with the community.

This is a journey of learning, of slowing down, of creating something beautiful right here in the SE side of Cedar Rapids.

When I bought this birds of paradise in 2021 I couldn’t have been happier. Looking back I’m fairly certain this was the plant that concreted my spiral into crazy plant lady.

Biggie lives inside in the winter and outside May-early October. Weighing well over 200 pounds and reaching over 10ft tall he’s now living in a concrete pot to ensure he can withstand wind gusts. The annual moving of locations requires a little coordination and a lot of muscle! 💪

My ultimate goal is to get him to flower… just once, or maybe twice!

When I started Nassau & Blake Urban Flowers, I thought I was simply growing flowers. What I've learned along this journey from seed to stem is it's really connection and simple moments of joy many of us are craving... so let's make it happen.

I'm excited to announce our first Nassau & Blake events:

The flowers are starting to bloom here at Nassau & Blake! I put together two small wrapped bouquets and they are in the stand for whoever swing through to claim them! Next week I expect there to be many more as the snapdragons, bachelor buttons, strawflower, and yarrow are all coming on fast!

Have a great weekend and thank you all for swinging through this special little place on the corner!

It finally rained… and more rain is headed our way over the next few days. If you’re thinking of planting yourself a little flower joy this season, now’s the time to get them in the ground! Zinnias are cut and come again flowers, meaning… the more you cut and share, the more flowers the plant will produce. Both seeds and starts are in the stand today along with new plants and vintage finds.

🍞 Phil’s back this weekend with sourdough loaves to make your stop by the stand even sweeter! 🍞

One month in, and May taught me a lot. 🌸

It taught me that starting something new is exciting, humbling, messy, and sometimes a little scary.

I’ve always been pretty risk-averse. In fact, if my former boss Bob is reading this, he can probably confirm that I preferred a well-thought-out plan over a leap of faith every single time.

And yet, here I am.

Trading zoom meetings for flower rows. Growing something from seed to stem and sharing it with this community.

I’ve also learned that big dreams are a lot easier when you have people who believe in them. My husband Jamie has supported every wild idea, every seed order, every garden expansion, and every “I think we should try…” conversation that got us here.

Most of all, I’ve learned that sometimes the things that scare us the most are the things worth doing.

Thank you to everyone who has stopped by, shared a post, bought flowers, bread, a funky vintage find, or plants, or simply cheered me on. One month in, and I couldn’t be more excited for what’s to come.
