Sunny Roadside Blooms

06/12/2026

Happy Friday (June 12th)! There are a few fresh picked bunches in the roadside stand available for first come, first serve pick up! If you’ve followed this page for awhile you know I love bright colors and these are definitely bright! 😆

Stay safe out there!

{UPDATED POST ABOVE{

[THU 10PM] A line of storms cutting across Eaton County occasionally shows signs of a potential tornado. Ingham County is NOT under a tornado warning at this time, but if the radar look worsens it is possible one could be issued.

Continue to monitor!

We believe a Baltimore checkerspot? This is a new sighting for me. Found it relaxing on a water iris today!

Raised beds weeded today and looking good! I added (4) small raised beds this season and (2) larger raised beds to house some flowers that can withstand drought and high temperatures and lots of sun. So far everything in them is looking amazing!

The stand is tucked away again for the night due to expected high winds, but will be back out tomorrow!

Wednesday, June 10th: The stand will be closed for first come, first serve pick up due to the heat index being near 100 this afternoon.

There is a reserved bunch though for morning pick up, thank you everyone for being mindful of the red reservation tags. You are appreciated!

Thank you Henningson Farms, for the beautiful flowers I picked up tonight for a birthday gift! They are perfect and smelled amazing!

And a little bit about me….I absolutely love sending greeting cards! So these cute flower cards in the Henningson’s flower shed were an added bonus! I send anywhere from 0-12 or so cards a month depending on the month! Thanks again!

Tuesday, June 9th! Was able to harvest a couple bunches of flowers before the rain hit. Check out that Japanese Dinnerplate water iris! It’s the first year it’s flowered. Super strong petals for an iris variety! Stay dry today!

Sold out - thank you!!!
Saturday, June 6th: A couple bunches available for first come, first serve pick up this morning. Such a welcomed sight to see these lilies opened this morning!

Also, just a reminder most flowers, especially lilies, are poisonous to cats & dogs. When in doubt, just set them up where an animal can’t reach them. 🐈 🐕

There is a perennial plant on the ground next to the stand. Free. I will remove the post when I see it’s gone. I believe it is a Veronica or something in the salvia family. For some reason, our furry friends have taken a liking to it. Which is surprising because I have several other plants from the salvia family they’ve left alone, and I won’t spray the plants. I’ll either cage or rehome. I even thought having it next to an English sage they’d leave it but nope!

Today, I caged a yellow native coneflower as they also ate that and that’s a plant I’d love to see used as filler in arrangements!

Stay cool and in the shade as it’s a HOT one today!
