| Bob picking for an order |
Brother Bob grows the most magnificent flowers. He and sister-in-law Judy have always said, “Anytime you want flowers, just ask.” Why I never thought to “just ask” for weekly fresh flowers before, I don’t know.
When we first moved back home in 2012, I helped Judy in the garage preparing flowers for wholesale or retail. For me, this was a course in Flowers 101. I learned how to care for them, how to prolong freshness and how to arrange. Judy was patient, thorough, and creative. Bob grows the flowers, but Judy was and still is the glue that keeps their business, Poppins Posies going. I always had flowers those summers.
