We’ve got a patchy frost here this morning so it’ll be the last week I’ll have fresh cut dahlias. 
I’ll have bunches of fresh eucalyptus. Hanging it in the shower uses steam to release its aromatic oils, which can help relieve congestion, boost mental clarity, and reduce stress. It’s also great sitting in a vase where you can enjoy its fragrance. Be aware if you have cats or dogs, it is toxic to them. 
New this week, daffodil bulbs, and disappearing lily bulbs! It’s the perfect time to plant bulbs for Spring color! I'll also have lots of dried flower creations! They're the perfect way to enjoy flowers in your house all year long!
