In Bloom: Early Season Flowers to Welcome Spring
Spring is slowly waking up the farm, and with it, the season's first blooms are starting to emerge. This is a special time of year—when the light linger a little longer, the soil begins to warm, and color returns to the fields. Here’s a look at what’s now blooming at Blue Star Botanicals and making their way into our early spring bouquets.
Daffodils (Narcissus)
These cheerful blooms are always among the first to arrive, offering buttery yellows, creamy whites, and soft doubles that smell faintly of sunshine. We grow several heirloom varieties that bring both beauty and fragrance to our spring arrangements.
Tulips
Our tulips are just starting to stretch toward the sun, and every day brings a few more into bloom. We plant a mix of specialty varieties in soft pastels and rich, moody tones—perfect for creating early spring bouquets with texture and elegance.
Hellebores
Often blooming while there’s still frost on the ground, hellebores are quiet stars of the early season. Their nodding blooms appear in soft greens, blush pinks, and purples, and they hold up beautifully in arrangements, adding a moody, romantic touch.
Anemones
Anemones are beginning to open with their delicate petals and striking black centers. They thrive in cooler weather and bring bold contrast to softer spring flowers—one of our favorites for early arrangements.
Ranunculus
The ranunculus are just starting to bloom, and we’re always amazed at their paper-like petals and incredible colors. From creamy whites to vivid pinks and oranges, they’ll be at their best in the coming weeks, but a few early beauties are already making their debut.
As we move deeper into spring, more flowers will join the mix, but these early bloomers are the ones we celebrate first. They’ve weathered the cold, waited patiently underground, and finally, they get to shine.
