Looking forward to my summer blooms! 🌸🌷

What are your favorite flowers? It’s a question I’m often asked, but picking one is like choosing a favorite child.

However, I can offer recommendations on why you might consider growing some of my beloved garden staples:

🩷 Dahlias: Among the most magnificent flowers to cultivate, dahlias also make exceptional cut flowers. With a vast array of types, they seamlessly integrate into any garden style. Dahlias thrive in well-nourished soil and flourish with at least 6 hours of direct sunlight each day.
🩷 Lilies: Boasting a stunning rainbow of colors, interesting shapes, and sizes, these hardy flowers are a dream for any gardener or flower arranger. Their versatility makes them a delightful addition to diverse landscapes.
🩷 Sweet Pea: Delicate and graceful, these offer colourful height to your garden and prefer cooler weather.
🩷 Hydrangea: With hundreds of varieties available, you’re sure to find one that complements your garden, whether it basks in shade or sunlight.
🩷 Allium: These tall, ball-shaped flowers stand out as a striking addition to the spring garden. Beyond their garden charm, they make a stunning accent in bouquets and pair beautifully with simple, architectural vases.

I’m Annemarie, the heart and soul behind Exquisite Blumen. My love for nature began with childhood hikes through the snowcapped Alps of Germany and Austria, gathering wildflowers and finding peace in their beauty.

Gardening connects me deeply with nature, and I cherish the opportunity to share its beauty and harmony with you.

Thank you for being part of our blossoming community!

My trick to keeping cut hydrangeas fresh and vibrant for longer is…

…boiling water! Hydrangeas produce sap that clogs their stems, but a quick dip in boiling water for up to 30 seconds can dissolve the sap, allowing water to reach the blooms. If your hydrangeas start wilting prematurely - submerge the entire flower in a water bath for 15-20 minutes. Keep the blooms fully submerged, using a weight if needed, to revive them through both stems and petals.

I hope this trick helps you to enjoy your hydrangeas for days!

Something exciting is blooming for Spring 2025!

We are in the process of creating a Floral Wellness Boutique right in the heart of beautiful downtown Langley on Whidbey Island. This dream space will blend the beauty of flowers and plants with elements that promote tranquility and well-being. In addition to our custom floral and plant designs, we’ll offer gifts that connect the outdoors with inner peace, including showcasing our beautiful vases, floral and plant essences, candles, body products, and a curated collection of healing crystals like amethyst and rose quartz.

I envision this boutique as more than just a shop—it’s a place where nature’s beauty and wellness come together. We’ll eventually host workshops and introduce a wellness treatment room, allowing for a deeper connection to nature’s calming benefits. Though many details are still unfolding, I couldn’t wait to share this exciting new chapter with you all.
Stay tuned—there’s so much more to come!

Ever wondered how to add texture to your floral arrangements? Texture is one of the key elements of floral display that enhances the visual appeal of any design. It introduces depth, dimension, and intrigue by infusing contrast, balance, and harmony.

In my entryway, I love to create texture by featuring multiple floral arrangements, each connected through a common floral or plant element. This approach not only adds contrast but also a dynamic sense of movement, while maintaining balance and harmony. The result? A visually pleasing design that captures the eye.

What flowers would you display together?

What’s your favorite flower?
That is the question I find impossible to answer, but lilies have always held a special place in my heart and garden. There’s something timeless about their beauty—their tall, elegant stems and large, showy blooms make them a centerpiece of any arrangement or border. Beyond their aesthetics, lilies symbolize purity, devotion, and renewal, making them as meaningful as they are stunning.
Their versatility is another reason I adore them. Lilies come in a rainbow of colors and forms, to suit any occasion. And of course, they are incredibly resilient and long.
What’s your favorite kind of lily?

As I look back on 2024, my heart is filled with gratitude for a year that brought so much growth, change, and unforgettable moments.
My garden flourished with new additions, each bloom a reflection of the hard work and love poured into it.
This year also welcomed Arthur, our playful new furry companion, while we said a heartfelt goodbye to our beloved Sebastian.
Spring brought the joy of my daughter’s engagement, and in the fall, a beautiful wedding celebrated love and togetherness.
Meanwhile, the kitchen island remained the hub of creativity, overflowing with floral displays that captured the spirit of each season.
On the work front, the journey toward opening the Floral Boutique has been a labor of love, a dream taking shape for early 2025. And reaching 10k followers—thank you for being part of this journey—has been a reminder of the connections that make everything worthwhile.
Here’s to the laughs, the tears, the beauty, and the hard work of 2024.
Wishing you all a bright and beautiful new year ahead!

Oh, the beautiful amaryllis! Known for its grace and strength, this winter stunner truly stands above the rest.
To keep your potted plant looking its best:
* Place it in bright, indirect light and rotate the pot daily for straight growth.
* Keep it away from fruit—its ethylene gas can make flowers wilt faster.
* Avoid draughts and chilly spots. A warm, light-filled area is ideal.
* Water every two weeks, only when the soil feels dry.

What’s your favorite winter flower?

The magic of Christmas is everywhere—decorating the house, inside and out, always brings back that childhood feeling of wonder and miracles. Every year, I decorate a very special tree, where each prize ribbon tells a story—whether it’s a champion ribbon, a first place, or even a fifth. They represent years of dedication, discipline, and growth through my journey in competitive riding.
In both life and the show ring, mistakes are moments to learn and grow. This tree isn’t just about success but about resilience, optimism, and moving forward.

What meaningful touches do you add to your holiday decor?

There’s something truly magical about Christmas—the twinkling lights, the crisp winter air, and the joy of transforming spaces into festive wonderlands. This year, my team and I have been busy little elves, adding our own special touches to the greenhouse and my home. One of my favorite projects? Using dried hydrangea heads as decorations for my Christmas tree!
The result feels so enchanting—soft, natural textures blending beautifully with the sparkling ornaments. It’s such a unique way to bring the beauty of the garden indoors, even in winter. Dried flowers like hydrangeas add an organic elegance, and they’re a wonderful way to preserve a piece of your garden long after the season ends.

I hope this idea inspires you for next year—imagine all the creative ways dried flowers could be used to add a touch of nature to your holiday decor. Wishing you all a warm and magical Christmas season!

Created by the talented Kenzi @kenzis.kindness.corner for my daughter Amanda’s wedding, these blossoms carried a piece of the love and joy we all shared that day.
After the wedding, Amanda decided to press them, what a fantastic idea! Those flowers, which witnessed her vows and the start of this new chapter, now live on as a colorful reminder of the happiness and togetherness of that day.
It’s amazing how flowers can hold so much meaning, and I’m so grateful she has this keepsake to treasure.

Arthur has been the star of the show as we’re getting the garden ready for winter.
Whether we are pulling last dahlia tubers or washing the roots, he’s been keeping the team on our toes! Who knew a miniature poodle could bring so much energy to garden chores? Let’s just say the tubers aren’t the only ones getting a rinse around here! 😊

Giving my daughter away in early November was one of those moments that’s hard to describe—emotional, bittersweet, and full of love.
Watching her step into this new chapter, I feel so proud of the woman she’s become and so excited for all the happiness that lies ahead.
While letting go both of my darling girls hasn’t been easy, my heart is bursting with love and hope for their beautiful future. And it’s a new phase of motherhood for me…
My dear Amanda, I’m wishing you a lifetime of joy, laughter, and love with Nic! Thank you for the day I’ll treasure forever.❤️

How to get the best of dahlia’s right now for next year’s blooms? Here are my easy steps:

1️⃣ Gently Pull: Carefully pull the plants from the ground. Be sure to label each tuber variety for easy identification later.
2️⃣ Rinse and Dry: Rinse the tubers thoroughly to remove all soil, then allow them to dry naturally in a cool, well-ventilated space.
3️⃣ Store Properly: Place the dried tubers in bins filled with horse shavings or similar material to keep them dry and insulated over winter.
Your dahlias will thank you next season with vibrant, healthy blooms!

l’ve received so many questions about how I manage garden cleanup, shorter days, and colder weather, so l thought l’d share my approach to the changing seasons.
I find fall jobs incredibly gratifying. The abundance of work only highlights how much we have achieved in summer season. I thank each stem for the blooms it has delivered. I rejoice at the promise of next year’s abundance when I clean up the tubers we managed to produce.
Like all living things, my garden needs rest—it has worked tirelessly through spring and summer, and now we all look forward to some stillness.
Wishing you a restful Sunday and a beautiful Thanksgiving ahead!

The flower beds are cleared, and we’re busy planting tulip bulbs before the first storms roll in!
Be sure to plant the bulbs with the pointed growing tip facing upwards and position them close together to encourage long, straight stems.
Already looking forward to a vibrant spring ahead!
