Bold & Beautiful.
Snapdragons have always captivated me with their distinctive appearance and vivid range of colours. It was a breathtaking scene last summer when the varieties we planted in our cut flower patch were all in bloom, flaunting everything from gentle pinks to bold copper hues.
While it takes patience to start them from seed, once they’ve germinated, it’s practically smooth sailing from there on. I find them perfectly suited to our climate (plant hardiness zone 3) since they’re frost and drought tolerant once established, and deer seem to avoid them, as well as other critters, making them a low maintenance cut flower.
This is your year. This is your time.
It’s time to explore your wildest dreams and make them reality. Our seed collection is the perfect way to begin.
THE FLOWERS ARE CALLING
The Cut Flower Magic Seed Collection Gift Box contains all the seeds needed to begin a stunning flower patch, with seeds that can be sown directly in your garden or started indoors for earlier blooms. All seeds were harvested from our lovely flowers cultivated in the foothills of Alberta, grown naturally without the use of pesticides.
Lovingly curated seeds are started indoors in organic soil early every spring, and transplanted outdoors to our magical flower patch once the temperatures warm up. We then tenderly cultivate our flowers all summer long until every stem is picked and fully enjoyed.
When you treat yourself or someone special to our gorgeous, field-grown, prairie blooms, you’re supporting a local, family-owned farm. You’re also contributing to saving our beautiful planet by encouraging the regeneration of native pollinators, as they happily feast on the thousands of blooms that fill our gardens during the season.
