SEASONAL FLOWERS BY MONTH
One of the unique qualities of locally grown flowers is their seasonality. They are intimately tied to length of day, brightness of the sunlight, the temperature and the weather right where you and I live, which means they also connect you to the seasons and ground you in the present. How lovely!
