Missing my flowers 🌷 but with all my seedlings starting I know spring is just round the corner!

This was my last bloom before the frosts .. she was a little confused it was well into winter

Petite Fleur ‘Dear Watson’ 🤍

Some flowers are beautiful…
and some carry pieces of your heart.

Petite Fleur Dear Watson is one of those.
This dahlia flowered just days before Hannah & Conner’s wedding — perfectly timed, as if it knew it was meant to be part of something special. Its very first bloom was placed into their table arrangement, quietly sitting amongst a day filled with love and celebration.

But this one means even more to me.
Hannah and her whānau became my whānau when I took over Danceworks. Over the years, she’s become my dance daughter — someone I’ve watched grow, supported, and cared deeply for.

So to have this bloom be part of her wedding day…that’s something truly special 🤍

Petite Fleur Dear Watson will always be a reminder that gardens don’t just grow flowers — they grow memories, connections, and love that carries through every season.
