Hey there, I’m Kari! My plant journey began in 2008 when my now-husband and I purchased a home in Sauk Rapids. Our standard-sized city lot had no landscaping beyond freshly laid sod, so I jumped in and started digging. With my mom and mother-in-law providing self-started seedlings and divided perennials, I began planting. Each year, my gardens expanded alongside my growing botanical interests. I’ve gone through various “obsessions,” including lilies, dahlias, seed starting, propagating cuttings, building a succulent collection, enhancing my vegetable gardening, and most recently, growing "cut flowers" and making arrangements. While I've shared my creations with friends and family, I’m excited to take a step further and share them on a slightly larger scale. For the 2026 season, I will be offering fresh-cut arrangements from my self-serve stand at my home in Sauk Rapids!

This season, I am growing:
