Welcome Dave, A New Friend And Guide For My Flower Bed And Photos

Dave and his family have opened a beautiful and colossal flower, plant, and greenhouse operation just down the road from the farm. It opened a few years ago but has mushroomed into a beautiful flower and garden center.

Last week, he invited me to come into the greenhouse as often as I wish to take photos until my raised beds are full of flowers and beyond.

This is excellent news. Just down the road is Sue Lamberti, the owner of the Cambridge Flower Shop. She has sold some beautiful flowers for me to photograph now and well into the summer. She is open all year. Dave is open from April through Christmas.

This new community will be an enormous help and inspiration for me. Every time I talk to Dave, I learn something new about flowers.

My camera almost melted down in Dave’s greenhouse.

Dave and his family have done a fantastic job building their Greenhouse and Garden center. He has thousands of plants growing in the greenhouse (he has more than one), and I stopped in today to check it out. He will see a lot of me, as Sue has and will.

Dave is well-known in town for his good deeds and generosity. It will be fun to work with him.

I’m not planting seeds this year; I’m only planting plants. I won’t have to go far to find them. Dave and I are already talking about the best possibilities for the raised beds.

Dave loves to talk flowers, and I’m happy to have connected with him. He is warm, easy to talk to, and helpful, as is Sue. Good people sell flowers. Good people garden, I am learning.

Coral’s is already an acceptable source of photographs for me, and I got these flowers below today. I took the Ranunculus home, and in a month, it will be in my garden.
