Our Story

We are a family-run flower farm & seed company specializing in breeding new cut flower varieties for gardeners, farmers & designers

Our thriving research & education farm is dedicated to giving flower lovers the tools & information they need to grow the gardens of their dreams

Set in Washington’s beautiful Skagit Valley, our fields are bursting with flowers that reflect the season, from fragrant sweet peas in the spring to magnificent dinnerplate dahlias in the fall and countless varieties in between. Research is at the heart of our operation, and we conduct extensive trials to find the very best cut flower varieties, coveted for their scent, stem length, and ethereal qualities, and share our findings with the world.

We are working on breeding new cut flower varieties (which we lovingly call Floret Originals) that will help give local growers an advantage in the marketplace and open up a whole new world of possibilities for the seasonal flower movement. Our shop features these farm-bred flower seeds, as well as specialty tools, supplies, and gifts.
