Cut Flower FAQs
Do you offer U-Pick?
Because we have to adhere to strict sanitization protocols between snips to promote a healthy crop, we do not offer U-Picks on our farm. We do however periodically offer porch pop ups where you can stop by and build your own bouquet!
Do you have minimums for bulk or event floral?
We do not have a minimum spend requirement for pickup of 100% farm grown floral.
Do you sell to florists?
We love selling to florists and offer a discount for regular purchases.
Do you deliver event floral?
Delivery is available within Michigan on orders over $300 plus $1 per mine from Fowlerville.
Delivery is only available evenings and weekends, and is subject to availability.
Where do you deliver bouquet subscriptions?
We offer delivery for a fee to Fowlerville, Howell, Oak Grove, Highland, and Webberville zip codes.
We also offer delivery along our florist route, which includes Novi, Farmington Hills, Canton, and Livonia.
When you enter your zip code at checkout, you will see an option for delivery. If you do not see that option, you are outside of our coverage area.
When are your bouquet subscriptions ready for pickup/delivery?
We try to get in touch 2-3 days ahead of delivery to let you know when to expect your blooms. Most bouquets will be ready Saturday - Monday.
What if I won't be home to pick up or get my bouquet?
If you're going out of town and won't be around to get and enjoy your blooms, our subscribers have two options:
1) You can gift your bouquet to a family member or friend in your zip code
2) For all of our 2024 bouquet subscribers, we will have one make up pickup/delivery date at the end of our regular season.
Please respond within 24 hours of being notified your bouquet is on the way if you need to gift or defer one of your subscriptions.
Can I order a bouquet any time?
We typically have something in bloom May through early October. Get in touch by email or social media and we can let you know what's available.
How can I get the longest lasting cut flowers?
Snip an inch off your stems before you place in clean water, keep cut flowers out of direct sunlight, and change water daily. Make sure you sanitize your vases between bouquets!
Dahlia Tuber FAQs
When do you ship tubers?
Tubers ship when we are confident they will not freeze in transit, typically not until mid-April. At this time, we do not offer early shipping.
Where do you ship tubers?
US shipping only. Due to state Department of Agriculture restrictions, we do not ship tubers to Hawaii or Idaho.
How do you pack and ship tubers?
We ship all tubers in USPS flat rate boxes. We ship our individually labeled tubers in paper bags with wood shavings. Your shipping fee covers the USPS flat rate, packaging materials, and some time spend packing and fulfilling orders.
Do you combine shipping?
We are happy to combine shipping for returning customers with a small $5 administration fee. Use code COMBINESHIP at check out on your second, third, fourth, or fifth order.
Do you offer local pickup?
We will have one local pickup day on Saturday, May 3rd 2025 from 10am to 2pm. If you are unable to commit to picking up your tubers at this time, please select the shipping option.
What measures do you take to protect your stock from disease?
We do our best to source new stock only from reputable growers and avoid introducing disease into our dahlia patch.
All plants are closely inspected for signs of viral infection and any symptomatic stock is unceremoniously culled. We use beneficial insects to control pest populations and prevent pest transmission, and sanitize snips between each plant.
In the event we find a plant infected with either leafy or crown gall, the infected plant and immediately adjacent plants are destroyed. All plants near ground zero are consigned to grow bags in a quarantine area for two years and the bed remains unplanted. We also individually store each clump after lifting in fall, and keep meticulous record of who was where, so an issue that is dormant in the fall but wakes in the spring can be addressed.
What happens if you lose stock between the January pre-sale and shipping in April?
We inspect stock before loading inventory into our store in January, and we hold back a percentage of all tubers to be sure that we are able to fill all orders with quality tubers, but unexpected losses can still happen. If we are unable to fill your order, we will reach out and notify you of the stock loss. If that tuber was *the one* and you wish to cancel the entire order, please respond within three days of notification. If you do not respond during this time period, we will assume you want to proceed with the rest of the order, and we will refund the missing tuber(s).
If all goes well, we will release the hold backs in a small restock sale in March or April.
Do you resell tubers?
No. All of our stock is grown on farm for a minimum of one growing season.
How do I apply the bulk discount?
Certain varieties marked with "bulk discounts available" will automatically apply a 20% discount when you add 5 or more to your cart, no code needed.
When is the tuber sale?
We aim to hold our sale sometime in early January after we've done a mid-winter check and inventory. We will announce our sale first to our subscribers, so be sure to sign up.
