Backyard Blooms & Bouquets

06/01/2026

🌸 Hello, June. 🌸

That means one of our favorite traditions is almost here…

🌿 Summer Subscription Season begins this Saturday! 🌿

From June through August, our subscribers receive a fresh bouquet each week filled with the best of what’s blooming in our gardens and carefully selected seasonal flowers. No two weeks are exactly alike—one week might be soft and romantic, the next bright and cheerful, and another full of wildflower charm.

It’s one of the most rewarding parts of our season because subscribers get to experience the gardens as they change and grow week by week.

From the first snapdragons and stock to the zinnias, sunflowers, and dahlias waiting in the wings, summer is just getting started.

✨ We still have a limited number of subscription spots available for this season.

Whether you’re treating yourself, brightening your kitchen table each week, or surprising someone special, we’d love to share a summer full of blooms with you.

👇 The subscription products are in the comments.

Here’s to longer days, dirty hands, overflowing buckets, and another season of flowers grown with intention. 💐☀️🐝

Before you go… what’s the one flower that says summer to you? 🌸🌻

Mine might be dahlias… but ask me again when the sunflowers start blooming. 😉☀️💛

🌸 A Huge Thank You, Studio B Legacy Families! 🌸

What a weekend!🥹🥰🫶

We packed, loaded, delivered, and handed out nearly 60 bouquets for Studio B Legacy’s recital weekend, and our hearts are so full. Seeing your dancers light up when they received their flowers was such a special reminder of why we do what we do.

To every family who pre-ordered, stopped by to say hello, shared photos, or supported our little flower farm and floral business—thank you. Your support means more than you know.

One thing we heard over and over this weekend was:

“Do you have any extras?”

The answer was unfortunately no this year… and we had at least 20 families ask!

So consider this our official note to self: next year we’ll be bringing extra bouquets to the recital for last-minute shoppers and surprise celebrations. 💐

We’re incredibly grateful to Studio B Legacy for trusting us to be part of such an important weekend and to all the dancers who let our flowers join them for their big moments on stage.

Now we’re off to catch our breath, refill some buckets, and start planning for next season. 😊

Thank you for helping Backyard Blooms & Bouquets continue to grow, one bouquet at a time.

💜 Liz & Patrick

Studio B Legacy recital weekend is almost here 🩰💐✨

Just a reminder that recital bouquet pre-orders close THIS THURSDAY!

We’ve been working with Studio B families for the last 6 weeks creating special bouquets for dancers, and we want to make pickup as EASY as possible for busy recital weekend schedules.

We will be set up right at Mt. Zion High School BOTH recital days with all pre-orders ready for convenient pickup at the venue 🙌 No extra stops needed between hair appointments, makeup, costumes, and recital chaos.

We are also offering FREE delivery on the Friday before recital weekend if your family would rather have bouquets delivered ahead of time. Just send us a message if you’d like Friday delivery arranged — otherwise your order will be waiting for you at the recital.

Thank you all so much for supporting our little flower business and letting us be part of such a special weekend for your dancers 🌸

Make sure to get your orders in before Thursday! 💖

Sometimes when you’re in the middle of the planting, harvesting, designing, teaching, delivering, and all the chaos that comes with running a small business…you forget to pause and really see what you’re building.

Reading this from Cass Concepts honestly meant so much to us. 🥹

They have helped us tell the story behind Backyard Blooms & Bouquets in a way that feels true to who we are—not just florals, but the heart behind them too. From our two backyard growing spaces to late nights arranging blooms at the kitchen table, they’ve helped bring our little business to life online in such a beautiful way.

One thing I’ve learned is that good marketing isn’t just about selling something. It’s about helping people feel connected to your story. And Cass Concepts has done exactly that for us.

We are so grateful for their support, creativity, encouragement, and belief in what we’re
growing over here. 🌿🤍

Flowers hit different when they’re grown with intention, not just arranged. That’s exactly what we’ve seen working with Backyard Blooms & Bouquets.

From seed to stem, there’s care in every step—and you can feel it in every bouquet. It’s seasonal, it’s thoughtful, and it brings a kind of beauty that only comes from something grown close to home.

Not just florals… something a little more personal.

Getting to tell that story alongside them has been something special.

Back to our backyard blooms summer edition 🌱💐

After weeks of Mother’s Day chaos, weddings, graduations, bloom bars, teaching, and Patrick being deep into shutdown season at ADM… we’re finally getting time to focus back on growing.

These little rows are just one small part of it all. One thing that makes Backyard Blooms kind of unique is that we actually grow from two different backyard locations… two backyards if you will 🌿🏡 Between this space and the beds and greenhouse at our home, we’ve got dahlias growing, baby starters everywhere, and rows of stock and snapdragons already starting to bloom.

Right now it may just look like tiny plants and straw-covered rows, but give it a little time and these spaces will be overflowing with flowers headed into your bouquets, subscriptions, weddings, and market wraps all summer long.

There’s honestly something really special about watching flowers go from seed to bouquet right here in our own backyards. And we’re so thankful you all continue to support this little flower dream season after season. 🖤

Now if the weather, weeds, and rabbits could just cooperate… that’d be great 😂🌦️🐇

“I kept saying I’d post an update…and then another flower delivery happened. 😂”

The last couple weeks have been such a whirlwind over here in the very best way. 🌸

Between teaching during one of the busiest months of the school year, Patrick working shutdown at ADM, and all of the Mother’s Day, Teacher Appreciation, prom, weddings, and everyday orders in between…we’ve been moving nonstop.

And honestly, we’ve just been sitting back lately feeling incredibly grateful. ☺️

Every season, Backyard Blooms & Bouquets continues to grow a little more. More customers. More events. More familiar faces returning. More people trusting us with really meaningful moments in their lives. 🥹🫶

There have definitely been long nights, flower-covered counters, coffee-fueled mornings, and lots of learning along the way 😅 — but seeing this little dream continue to bloom season after season makes every bit of it worth it.

So thank you.
Thank you for supporting a small local business.
Thank you for your patience during busy seasons.
Thank you for sharing our posts, recommending us, ordering from us, and cheering us on.🥰💐

We truly wouldn’t be here without this community, and we can’t wait to show you everything still to come. 🌿💛

“If you’ve gotten flowers from us recently, we’d love to hear where they ended up 🩷”

Happy Mother’s Day to all the amazing moms and mother figures out there. 🤍💐

This week was a full one over here — balancing teaching, flowers, deliveries, events, and a few unexpected challenges along the way — but we’re ending it feeling incredibly grateful.

Thank you for supporting our little business and allowing us to help celebrate the women you love most. Your kindness, patience, and support mean more to our family than you know. 🌸
