Senior's Hope
Senior's Hope was new to us in 2024 and one of our favorite varieties. We will plant her every year as she is so unique in her coloring. Flowers are informal decorative in form with antique mauve with plum accents. The plants are shorter at about 30" and have dark foliage. They make an excellent cut flowers with 5" blooms. Sourced from Morey Hill Farms, this variety is unique and moody and absolutely makes a bouquet. We will have limited tubers available as we hope to grow our stock.
Product Info
During the winter months, tubers are stored in a dormant state. Depending on the tuber variety, weather, and availability of storage medium, we store in plastic wrap, or in vermiculate. We wake our tubers in February and March. This allows us to start our plants early so we have more mature plants that flower earlier during the Michigan growing season. We also propogate cuttings to increase stock. If you would like tubers earlier in the spring we offer pick-up at the farm.
Return & Refund Policy
We are a boutique specialty cut flower farm. We take care to ship tubers with visible eyes and no growth limiting damage. Tubers are living storage stems and can get a little dry (and wrinkle) and or get a small bit soft to the touch. Each variety handles winter storage differently and wakes at it's own pace. We will not send tubers if we are not confident in their viability and the presence of an eye or sprout. If you have a concern, please contact us immediately with a photograph. Our tubers and flowers are meant to bring happiness. We will work with you to resolve any concerns.
Shipping Info
Tubers can be shipped in late spring without a threat of freezing. Shipping is risky from November to April. We will ship via priority mail in April.
