This week’s bouquet ingredients are stellar!!! They include fluffy hydrangeas which made them HUGE! Yes, they got bigger plus loaded with dahlias! When you are done with your bouquet, just pull the hydrangeas and put them in a vase without water and they will dry beautifully! I use them all over the house for a pop of fall texture. The flower stand will be OPEN Friday 8-6, Saturday, 8-4, Sunday 10-2 as long as supplies last! 355 2nd Ave NW Milaca in the back alley. Cash or Venmo.
